"We were looking for an enterprise solution to dynamically convert document types to PDF and we found that JustPDF was the optimal solution to suit our needs. The ease of integration with existing applications, the excellent quality of the software as well as an affordable price tag, were the primary factors in our decision to use JustPDF. After installation and the addition of a link to JustPDF on our intranet pages, everyone in our company was able to create high-quality PDFs, conforming to business standards and increasing overall employee productivity."

Bayersiches Landesamt für Statistik und Datenverarbeitung
The Bavarian State Office for Statistics and Data Processing uses JustPDF's web services - the optimal basis for integration with existing applications. In order to facilitate multiple simultaneous conversions to PDF on the fly, the office selected the unlimited version of JustPDF. With this version, the possible number of documents converted per hour is only restricted by the hardware used. DataPerform expanded and adapted the web services module to work best with existing business applications and implemented the software onsite.

In December 2004, after an intensive test and evaluation period, IZBSoft decided to order 37,000 activePDF Toolkit licenses. The reason: its software engineers found that it is the best product in its class on the market, with an attractive licensing model and it was within the budget. In the first quarter of 2005, IZBSoft plans to roll-out the software to the Sparkassen PCs.

LAND OBERÖSTERREICH
The Austrian government is working closer with DataPerform and activePDF. Besides the federal states of Oberösterreich, Salzburg und Steiermark, many municipals are also using the powerful products of activePDF. Oberösterreich plans to convert over 15,000 documents to PDF per day and has decided to use activePDF Server/DocConverter. As an experienced partner, DataPerform assisted with the implementation and provided end user training.
