RE: [PDFdev] Doc conversion

[Wil Paulk]

Here is what the boss asked me:

 

In order to keep the implementation costs down for our (Potential) customer, we are investigating alternative PDF creation tools to substitute for ADOBE ACROBAT. They have a number of departments that generate documents in WORD (and other Microsoft electronic) formats and need to output to Image+Text PDF for use in the E.GENDA solution.

In addition, some of the documents will be scanned to TIF and need to be converted to PDF Image-only (and later converted to PDF Image+text) for use in E.genda routing.

These are the only requirements given to me.

I'm mostly comparing it to Adobe Capture, so formats converted, fidelity of conversion, and price would be most important.

        Then I'm confused...

        Capture is a product for scanning paper and OCRing them - while the other products you mention are for electronic document conversion.   AdLib eXpress, however, includes a scan/OCR module though.
        
        So what are you looking for?
