The company Lederer GmbH (Germany/Europe) uses TEC-IT's PDF-generator online service. TEC-IT ensures that the online PDF-form creation service (TFORMer is used to create arbitrary PDF labels including bar codes) is available on its web-server.
The web portal of Lederer GmbH sends label creation requests via http to the TEC-IT server. The resulting PDF document (in this case a product label with bar codes) is returned to the web-portal of Lederer GmbH. The data to be used in the labels is specified via GET/POST parameters (value, name of label layout, language, ...).
With this technology arbitrary PDF forms are easily embedded into internet applications or web-portals.
The suppliers of Lederer GmbH benefit from a centralized and world-wide unified product-labeling tool. No special infrastructure is required (a Browser and a PDF-viewer are sufficient). This technology minimizes costs for installation and maintenance, in addition errors or delays due to wrong or out-dated product labels are reduced significantly.
