Case Study: PostFinance achieves legally compliant PDF/A archiving with Pdftools

Legally compliant, digital archiving solution at PostFinance

PostFinance AG, a major Swiss bank, faced the challenge of meeting regulatory requirements for the digital archiving of its internal business documents. They needed a reliable solution to convert and validate files into the legally compliant PDF/A format. To address this, they turned to the vendor Pdftools and its Conversion Service.

Pdftools implemented its 3-Heights Document Converter software, which was integrated into a SharePoint-based archiving process. This solution automatically converts documents to PDF/A for long-term storage, ensuring legal compliance. The reliable conversion quality eliminated the need for manual or microfilm archiving. The solution is now used by approximately 250 employees, allowing the central storage office to access archived documents at any time.
