SwiftView® Features
View, convert, search, index, and analyze PCL
 
SwiftView Pro is an enhanced PCL, HPGL, and TIFF interactive view, print, and export utility.  SwiftView Standard and Pro have powerful PCL analysis features. 

SwiftView Pro features:
  • Manually export as PDF, TIFF, PNG, PCL, PostScript, Raster HPGL, or plain text from a button in the viewer toolbar. 
    (Use SwiftConvert to automate batch conversion of PCL, HPGL, and TIFF to PDF, TIFF, PostScript, text, and other formats.)
  • Optionally view, print, or export at 600 DPI for cleaner, crisper text and images.
  • Optionally view and print any color PCL5 or PCL6 file in full color
    (SwiftView Standard only views and prints PCL6, HPGL, and TIFF in color.)
  • Export as color PDF, PCL5, and TIFF
    (Note: color tiff in uncompressed or "packbits" compression only.  Currently HPGL or Markup is only exported as monochrome.)
  • Export searchable PDF from searchable PCL/HPGL documents.
  • Export tables to Excel: plain text exported from reports and other tabular documents retains its tabular form and is easily imported into spreadsheets.
  • Export an entire file, a range of pages, or a region on a page.
  • Manually print or export ranges of PCL pages in their original PCL format. 
    (Use SwiftExtract to automate fast extraction of PCL pages.)
  • Cache PCL page information in a file for instant startup and random page access the next time you view or search the same PCL file.
SwiftView Standard and Pro PCL analysis features:

All of the following are easily done from your application using text commands and callback strings.
  • Count pages.  SwiftView quickly and accurately counts the pages that would actually be printed by a PCL file.
  • Search for a text string.  SwiftView builds an accurate "plain text" equivalent of the text actually printed by a PCL file for search and extraction. 
  • Search for text matching a pattern.  SwiftView incorporates standard Unix regular expression pattern matching for sophisticated searches.
  • Search for text in a form or report field.  SwiftView can exclude text not in a rectangular area from the search, to search for text in a field in a report or form.
SwiftView Pro and SwiftExtract together make a powerful analysis and data extraction toolkit for forms and reports. 

We are continuing to develop new PCL analysis features in SwiftView Pro.  Contact us to discuss your indexing and PCL extraction needs.
