Case Study: DB Systel GmbH digitizes and displays railway plans with Nutrient

How DB Systel GmbH Uses PSPDFKit to Digitize and Display Railway Plans

DB Systel GmbH, the digital partner of Deutsche Bahn, needed a way to digitize millions of railway blueprints for field use. Its mobile app was missing key PDF capabilities like viewing, search, annotation, signing, and sharing, and building them in-house would have required a major development effort. DB Systel chose Nutrient’s SDK to meet these requirements.

Using Nutrient, DB Systel quickly added robust PDF viewing and annotation features, digital signatures, full-text search, and custom markup tools into its app. Since 2017, the solution has helped DB Netz employees access plans on mobile devices, collaborate more efficiently in the field, and speed up repair and maintenance work, with many requested features delivered on time or earlier than expected.
