Case Study: Kinetic AG digitizes 10 million paper documents with Pdftools

Digitize extensive paper archive with Kinetic AG

Kinetic AG, a Swiss IT services provider, faced a significant challenge when a client, an insurance company, needed to digitize approximately 10 million paper documents due to a move. Their previous scanning solution had unsolvable technical problems, and they required a new, extremely stable and high-quality software to create searchable PDF/A files. Kinetic AG approached their existing partner, Pdftools, to use its Image to PDF Converter and PDF Extract products to meet the stringent requirements for processing speed, output quality, and data integrity.

The solution from Pdftools was integrated into the scanning process within just five days. The implementation involved using Pdftools software to convert scanned images into searchable PDF/A documents, which were then archived. This digitization eliminated the need for a physical paper archive and allowed multiple users to access documents concurrently, significantly reducing processing times for assessments. The insurance company client now benefits from a faster, more flexible, and future-proof digital workflow based on the stable and high-quality processing provided by Pdftools.
