TAKE CHARGE OF CONTROLLING PDF DOCUMENTS

Portable document format (PDF) is considered as the gold standard for capturing and reviewing information from almost any application or any computer system and provides a secure format of sharing a document with virtually anyone, anywhere. Enterprises in general use PDF since it is a trusted secure format for delivering content information. Thus, enterprises want an easy and seamless approach to process and manage content to these formats.

As part of Documentum D2 +Pack, D2 PDF Configuration (formally known as C2), users can take charge of their PDF documents and at the same time have the ability to apply watermarks, generate a table of contents, and create cover pages and signature pages to content prior to viewing, printing, or exporting the documents. Users can enable the security settings of PDF files that need to be managed and controlled. Document control, stamping, merging, and protection of PDF documents are all fully supported. Documentum D2 PDF Configuration offers the ability to manage and enhance documents by adding complementary components on PDF renditions such as:

Extra pages

Add one or several pages (cover or blank page) in PDF format at the beginning, the end, or after any given page of a document

Watermarks

Allows the additions of watermarks to all or part of the document; the watermark may be an image or a full text type

Layers

Enables layers to be overwritten in the document; for example, a header, a footer, or an image—such as a company logo—can be added to the document

Dynamic pages (covers, glossaries, e-signatures, etc)

Enables dynamic construction of pages, such as a signature page, that is added gradually over the course of a document’s lifecycle
