PCL
Normalization Technology
PCL Normalization: PCLTool
can low-level index an entire PCL file to find any page, extract the page and
any required PCL to make it a "standalone" - independent PCL page;
such as, pages can be re-printed as PCL or rendering to other formats. This
is not an easy task, for even the printer could not start printing on a specific
page (even if you could skip to the page in the PCL file). COLD application
developers can low-level index PCL files, then use this index to extract every
page in the file to store as separate
"page records" in a database. Since
the PCL contained in each record is "normalized", it can be retrieved,
printed or rendered without referencing other parts of the original PCL file
for required resources.
PCLCOLD: PCLCOLD is an
extension of our PCLTool SDK feature set. The form overlay is first converted
to WMF format, then all the text is extracted from the PCL printstream.
The extracted data is stored in a search-ready text format,
and the retrieved page is overlaid on top of the WMF form overlay to reduce storage
space and increase access times for large file archives. Target Market: Any
vendor of COLD applications that already support PCL printstreams who realizes
that the most promising marketing opportunity is at the PCL dominated department
level, not the traditional Data Centers.
- COLD Product Software Developers/OEMs, Systems Integrators and VARS.

If you have a specific project in mind, please send a zipped
representative sample file with your application and indexing requirements and
an overview of the opportunity. To help you provide the relevant information
to us, please go to our Support Form Script and
fill it out as best you can.  We will analyze and convert the file into text
and font data and sent it back to you for discussion.
