SwiftPublish is a manual or batch file conversion and print workflow toolkit.  It captures PDF files and the native files of most Microsoft Windows applications, creates PCL, PDF, or TIFF files, and processes them according to a configuration you define.  These portable electronic documents can be archived, emailed, or published on a website or CD-ROM.  They can be viewed and printed using the SwiftView Viewer, or further processed with other SwiftView Tools or any applications that can read PCL, PDF, or TIFF documents. 

SwiftPublish can also directly print PDF files to any Windows printer you configure.  See the printpdf DirMon example below. 

A unique feature of SwiftPublish is that it captures the original document's searchable text, insuring that the final PCL or TIFF file is searchable in the SwiftView Viewer and Acrobat or other PDF tools.

Handy features such as the "DirMon" "hot folders" directory monitor make SwiftPublish easy to deploy on servers accessable over your company's internal network. 

Install a free limited-time evaluation of SwiftPublish here.  SwiftPublish may be evaluated for free for 30 days.  After 'timeout', you must obtain a longer-term evaluation or purchase a license from SwiftView Tools Sales.

There are two easy ways to try SwiftPublish:

1. Just print from your application to the "SwiftPublish" printer.  You will be prompted for a filename for the resulting PCL print file.
2. Use the convenient "DirMon" feature.

• c:\Program Files\SwiftView\importtopcl:
  Convert to a PCL file using SwiftPublish's spbatch utility and the printing application associated with the file's suffix.
• c:\Program Files\SwiftView\importtopdf:
  
• c:\Program Files\SwiftView\importtotiff:
  Convert to a PDF or TIFF file using SwiftPublish's spbatch utility and the printing application associated with the file's suffix.  Note that to use these examples, you must also install an evaluation copy of SwiftConvert for Windows
• c:\Program Files\SwiftView\converttopdf:
  
• c:\Program Files\SwiftView\converttotiff:
  Convert to a PDF/TIFF file using SwiftConvert.  Only files convertable with SwiftConvert are supported.  Note that to try these examples, you must also install an evaluation copy of SwiftConvert, and you must purchase SwiftConvert, not SwiftPublish.
• c:\Program Files\SwiftView\printpdf:
  Batch print PDF files to a configured printer, in this case, a SwiftPublish printer.  Edit the Command to change the SwiftPublish printer name to any other Windows printer installed on your system.  Only works on PDF files.
• c:\Program Files\SwiftView\testlicense:
  A debugging tool to display licensing information for SwiftConvert running under DirMon (access to network license files can be user-dependent.)

All of these directories except the last two deposit the converted file in c:\Program Files\SwiftView\convertout.  See these notes for more details on the operation and configuration of DirMon. 

Your application running on the server can initiate a conversion by invoking the spbatch utility directly, much as DirMon does in the sample configurations above.  This gives you more direct control over the conversion process.  For more information see the SwiftPublish Application Notes.

When you are ready to buy, visit the price page and request a price quote on the appropriate license.  When you purchase, you must provide us a system name for each system being licensed.  We will email a SwiftPublish license file unique to each PC you are licensing.  Simply double-click the evaluation installer on each licensed system and copy the license file to "c:\program files\SwiftView\sview.lic".

Custom installers are available for specific configurations e.g. to automatically zip a file or convert it to TIFF when printing from your application.  For more information see the SwiftPublish Application Notes.
