Formtastic
Transform spool files into modern, branded documents without coding
IBM i spool files play a vital role in your document output process, but alone they are plain and time consuming to manipulate and distribute. Many companies simply print their spool files on expensive pre-printed forms, which can cost thousands in paper, printer supplies and distribution time. This also offers no flexibility for the company to automatically edit or customize documents.
Automatic IBM i Spool File Beautification and Distribution
Formtastic is an easy-to-use document automation solution that enables you to custom design forms, checks, and bar code labels from a desktop-based interface designer. From there, Formtastic extracts spooled data from your IBM i and inserts it into a new business form. You can then automatically fax, email, print or store the newly formatted electronic document within a network.
