In today’s environment, government agencies are
increasingly obligated to offer services electronically due to citizen
demand for convenience and the higher cost of operating in traditional
settings. Recent legislation, such as the Government Paperwork Elimination
Act (GPEA), has seen electronic records, electronic transactions, and
electronic messaging replace many conventional paper-based processes,
offering not only enhanced convenience, but also more effective and efficient
transactions. The cost and time savings realized through e-government
allow units to offer a greater array of services to citizens, and improve
relations with the public.
The Portable Document Format (PDF) is playing a vital
role in the development of e-government, offering a faster, cheaper and
less complex method for viewing, navigating, storing and printing electronic
documents. activePDF provides a powerful framework for agencies who need
to implement PDF solutions as part of their e-gov initiative, offering
affordable products that assist government agencies in the move away
from paper-based processes and help streamline electronic document gathering,
distribution and storage. |
activePDF's server-based solutions eliminate the need to install and
manage desktop PDF creation software, a costly and time-consuming process,
by effectively centralizing the PDF generation process across an entire
network. Automating this process requires little or no user intervention,
allowing employees to concentrate on what they do best. As a result,
software training and maintenance costs are also significantly reduced.

Electronic Forms Submission
Has your a agency implemented
an electronic form solution, only to realize that users are still printing
paper forms for submission? If so, you're not alone. Hundreds of organizations
are frustrated by the same issue but cannot justify spending thousands
of dollars on software just to enable users to save completed forms. The
free version of Adobe Reader will not allow your users to save data within
PDF forms, but activePDF Toolkit will. We have designed the activePDF
product line to help streamline the electronic forms process and assist
you and your agency in getting on the right track toward the paperless
office. More info…
Disseminate PDF Files Securely
activePDF solutions provide built-in security features that afford you full control over your PDF documents. You can easily apply 40 and 128-bit encryption to PDF files ensuring that confidential information can only be viewed or edited by authorized users. PDFs can also be configured to disable a user's printing capabilities, in order to protect copyrighted or other sensitive material. Additionally, users can password-protect files to prevent unauthorized viewing, printing and /or editing of confidential information within PDF files. activePDF also provides unique fingerprinting technology so that you can easily detect if your PDF has been tampered with. And, because of the nature of the code behind the PDF format, files are virtually virus-free. More info…
Ensure Document Integrity
The move towards the paperless office has increased concerns over document security and integrity. How do you know that confidential information hasn't fallen into the wrong hands? How do you know exactly where your PDF documents originated? How can you detect if someone has altered important information? PDF files inherently retain precise display and print control features and are stored as "electronic paper" that is always accurately and consistently reproducible in every working environment.

Centralize PDF Creation within your Agency
activePDF offers unique server-based solutions that enable agencies to deploy PDF generation capabilities across the network. Users can simply drag and drop files, such as Microsoft® Word or PowerPoint files, onto a watched folder on their desktop and retrieve the PDF version of the document in a corresponding output folder. activePDF solutions can be completely customized to further extend the functionality and benefits of using PDF - automatically send the outputted PDF files via email, store the files in a database or upload to a website - the possibilities are endless. Implementing a server-based solution also means that security and other job options can be defined and applied by your IT department at the server level to standardize PDF output across an entire agency. Users simply need to select and convert the native file format and then retrieve the resulting PDF file. More info…
Cross-Platform Compatibility
activePDF solutions allow government agencies to standardize on PDF as the de facto format for secure document distribution and storage without the burden of worrying about software compatibility issues. PDF files can be viewed on any platform, regardless of operating system through the use of freely available PDF viewer software. activePDF enables users to combine multiple documents and forms into one single PDF file securely for simple and easy distribution.
