iSeries Virtual Printer Transforms
OS/400 Spool Files to PDF and Emails it
out.
o SBTN3812 is an iSeries
Virtual Printer.
o It transforms all iSeries
OS/400 spool files to Adobe Acrobat PDF
Files.
o Its integrated emailer
emails PDF files out.
o SBTN3812 runs on Windows
PC.
o From a user's point of
view, SBTN3812 looks like a SCS System Printer
(IBM 3812-1 Printer). You can continue to use
CRTPRTF, CHGPRTF, OVRPRTF, CHGSPLFA, WRKOUTQ,
WRKSPLF etc. on 5250 Green Screen to print
reports for automatic transformation to PDF and
email.
o SBTN3812, when run,
telnets to iSeries OS/400 with a device name. In
turn, OS/400 Telnet Server 1. Creates a
Virtual Printer Device with specified name
2. Creates an output queue with specified
name and 3. Starts a printer writer with
specified name.
o When a spooled file with
ready (RDY) status is moved to this output
queue, printer writer will start sending the
spooled file to SBTN3812 for transformation to
PDF and emailing. PDFs are saved on local or
network disk drive.
o PDF produced by SBTN3812
is text-based, fully navigatable, and
high-performance. This means that the output
data encoded in EBCDIC is converted to ASCII but
remains data, not a bitmap.
o SBTN3812 is very
affordable, easy-to-use, fast report publishing
and electronic document distribution
system.
o Replaces Pre-Printed
Paper Form: You can design electronic form
overlays using any readily available graphics
design software and save the overlay as industry
standard JPEG image. Built-in JPEG image
processing program merges it with variable line
data to produce graphics-rich PDF documents.
enabling replacement of pre-printed paper form.
o Email: SBTN3812 has
integrated e-mail function for "outbound" PDF
electronic distribution.
o PDF File Name: SBTN3812
can generate meaningful PDF file name from the
line data. So when all PDF files are displayed,
user can quickly determine what it contains.
o Segmentation: SBTN3812
can create multiple PDF files out of a single
output file. This "electronic burst and bind"
function is integrated into
SBTN3812.
o Electronic Distribution:
SBTN3812 can email reports as PDF files to an
individual or group of
individuals.
o Electronic Publication:
Reports which are normally printed, burst, and
mailed in hardcopy format can be converted to
PDF and placed in the Integrated File System
(IFS) for Web or client access.
o Complimentary Free
