Form Design

  Additional alignment tools have been added to the Reform Designer, such as a tool to evenly space objects.

• Anchor Feature
  The anchor feature allows the user to lock the position of floating information in order to eliminate pagination problems.

• Zoom Function
  The zoom function in the text layer assists with rapid form design by allowing users to see more information.

• Audit Feature
  The new audit feature provides users with specifications of all of their forms, eliminating the need to open each form individually.

• Custom Screen Design
  With new enhancements made to the Reform Printer Driver, custom screens can be designed in order to fit the customer’s document workflow. The customized screen can request information about all the devices that the user intends to send the document to (such as fax, email, archiving, and printing) all on one screen.

Document Control

• Device Monitor Website
  Users can check the status of their document deliveries and make sure they have reached their intended destinations properly with the new Device Monitor website.

• Sorting Order
  Since there are certain cases where priority jobs need to be processed before others, a new feature has been added to control the sorting order for incoming print streams.

• Schedule Backup Directory Purging
  The backup directory can often become cluttered with files. Purging these documents can be scheduled to occur at certain times.

• Script Control of PDFs
  New security controls offer 128 bit encryption and client specific passwords that allow clients to open documents in either a read or write state.

• Native CSV conversion
  Introducing a new, easier way of converting CSV files. Native CSV conversions eliminates the need for Decision Maker or other Device Script processing—just open the CSV file in the Designer and the information will be displayed in an easy to use format.

Tag Doc – formerly known as Scan to Reform

• Vertical Barcode Reading
  Due to the lack of space on some forms, vertical barcodes can now be used. Reform’s barcode reader can read these vertical barcodes as well as horizontal barcodes.

• Noise Control for Barcode Reading
  Because scanning hardware can be exposed to all types of environments, quality of scanned documents cannot be guaranteed. The new barcode reader has an adjustment that provides 100% accurate readings—even with poor quality scans.

• OCR Engine
  The scripting plug-in includes an OCR engine that will extract text from images. Although most information being processed through Reform is vector/ text, there are cases where bit maps need to be processed as well, such as with Tag Doc.

New plug-ins

• Fax & Archive Systems
  Seamless integration with Ricoh LAN Fax and Laserfiche.

• Postal Sort Plug-in
  With the postal sort plug-in, when addresses are entered into Reform they are automatically verified, corrected and CASS certified to qualify for USPS automation savings of up to 9.5 cents per mail piece.
