Case Study: McLaren Software achieves dynamic PDF watermarking with Pdftools PDF Toolbox SDK

Dynamic watermarks with the PDF Toolbox SDK

McLaren Software, a UK-based IT services company specializing in Enterprise Content Management (ECM) applications, needed a solution to dynamically apply watermarks to PDF documents. The challenge was to generate these watermarks using information, such as a document's status, pulled from a central database managed by their ECM platform. To address this, McLaren Software selected the PDF Toolbox SDK from Pdftools.

Pdftools provided the PDF Toolbox SDK, which McLaren Software implemented to create a stable and secure solution. This allowed them to offer their customers dynamic watermarks that update automatically based on a document's lifecycle status, such as "approved" or "pending". The results included preventing ambiguity, reducing idle time, and significantly improving the speed and diligence of critical review and approval processes for their clients.
