Its drag-and-drop design tool allows you to create documents that can be printed on blank paper, e-mailed, archived, and made available on the Web.

DocuGuard is a small, cost-effective memory device that connects to the parallel port of a laser printer and eliminates the need for preprinted forms. DocuGuard is used primarily when there is a limited number of print destinations. When installed, your document templates and logos are automatically uploaded to the printer memory from the DocuGuard device.
During the standard print routine, the original output data stream remains unchanged. The data is merged with the template at the printer, greatly reducing the network traffic caused by large file transmissions. This allows your printer to operate at maximum rated speeds.
