Case Study: High‑tech lithography manufacturer achieves scalable, cost‑effective PDF conversion and SOX/ISO compliance with Adlib Software

Automating Critical Document Workflows

Manufacturing Organization, a developer of high‑tech lithography, needed a scalable, auditable way to convert Microsoft Office and Visio files to meet SOX and ISO requirements. The organization sought an alternative to PDFMaker — which couldn’t handle the volume and would have required over 3,000 per‑user licenses — and needed searchable, compliant PDFs. They engaged Adlib Software and its Adlib PDF/Adlib PDF Enterprise Advanced Rendering solution.

Adlib Software implemented a centralized, server‑based Adlib PDF Enterprise Advanced Rendering solution to replace PDFMaker, automating high‑volume document‑to‑PDF conversion and adding OCR for searchability. The change delivered demonstrable SOX and ISO compliance, improved productivity and secure collaboration, and cut licensing costs by moving from a per‑user model (would have been >3,000 licenses) to a per‑server model, providing cost‑effective scalability.
