Introduction

Learn more about how to setup automated conversion processes

The FVX Hotfolder module allows the automated conversion of PDF documents.

Simply setup folders on your network, which will be monitored by FlipViewer. You just need to define a template for each once. When a user adds a PDF document into the folder, the conversion starts automatically based on predefined settings of design and reading rights.

Being a publishing house or a printing organization, there can be many instances where you might have to publish the digital docs again and again at a regular interval. You will not have to perform those same steps over and again publish your PDFs into Flipbooks. FVXHF will take care of this for you.

This function is not limited to any number of employees and even across different locations, it is possible to convert PDFs into FlipBooks.

When do you need it

  • You have many conversions each day
  • You want to offer digital pubications company-wide
  • You have re-current publishing tasks

Typical customers include publishing houses which want to facilitate recurrent PDF to FlipBook publishing, advertising agencies, which want to easily preview to customers, how publications will look in real, corporations that have a large amount of documents they want to archive digitally....
