Case Study: Metafile Information Systems speeds PDF display and indexing with Pdftools

Metafile uses products from PDF Tools AG to locate and display PDF documents

Metafile Information Systems, a provider of document management solutions, faced a challenge with its MetaViewer product line. Their customers, who process PDFs with over 50,000 pages, found that free PDF viewers were too slow, making work inefficient and costly. To address this, Metafile turned to Pdftools for a more robust viewing and indexing solution, utilizing the 3-Heights PDF Viewer SDK and PDF Extract Tool.

Pdftools provided the high-performance tools needed to overcome these performance issues. The implementation of the 3-Heights PDF Extract Tool reduced the time required for full-text indexing by at least 50%. Additionally, the PDF Viewer SDK and PDF Library SDK enabled fast and easy merging of files and the creation of new documents for email distribution, significantly improving their clients' workflow efficiency.
