FineLine Trapeze creates Adobe Acrobat-compatible PDF files from standard UNIX text files, with options to add a JPEG image to the background (ex: the form the data completes), e-mail the PDF file directly as an attachment, file the PDF for our FineLine PC ImageLink software, break a report into smaller sections that are processed independently, and add a signature field compatible with our FineLine PC Tablet UNIX/PC signature capture software.

With FineLine Trapeze, rather than printing and then faxing or mailing a report, receipt or invoice, you can create an electronic version and e-mail it directly to the recipient with a single command so it can be viewed, printed and even forwarded to multiple people simultaneously, eliminating wasted paper, telephone charges, physical filing and storage.

It also provides the ability to electronically archive reports so they can easily be retrieved at any time in the future, rather than being printed and stored in a box in a remote location.

How it works

Trapeze provides a UNIX command that enables specifying the UNIX text file to convert, and whether to leave the PDF file on UNIX or create a standard BASE64 attachment and e-mail it to the specified users, with optional filing of the PDF on the UNIX server for use by our ImageLink electronic document software.
