With 4 different editions available, there’s an AutoDoc to suit every need
Lite
Single User Automated document delivery for Home or Small Business. The Lite edition provides the core functions required to achieve automated document delivery, without the load handling capacities of larger versions. The Lite edition includes powerful context-sensitive delivery capabilities, and the ability to use document text in the delivery itself.
Server
Designed for network installations, the Server edition is ideal for the small to mid-sized operation with more complex delivery requirements, or needing a server-based solution. The Server edition comes with 5 network users initially, and can be expanded to a maximum of 20. It also includes support for XLS, XLT and TXT type attachments in emails, and the number of variables available during processing is extended to 20 per form.
Standard
Ideal for the Small Business with more form requirements or RAW/PCL support. Includes support for DOS based printing from older applications and also non Windows-based applications such as Linux or AS/400. Still limited to single a user, but with many of the functions of the higher versions.
Enterprise
Offering document delivery efficiencies for larger organisations, the Enterprise edition caters for heavy print loads, and supports the extra complexity in configuration required by an organisation with more users and a wider variety of outputs. Features unlimited users, maximum number of forms extended to 99, XML archiving and attachments, multi-thread operation and the ability to add additional ‘virtual printers’ make this the Flagship AutoDoc HSE product.

Number of forms |
Determines the number of distinct combinations of preconfigured delivery settings you can store. For example, one form may store settings to email the document, CC the document to another user, fax the document, and create a PDF to archive in a certain location, while another form specifies that the document should only be emailed, and not CC’d to another user. |

Number of variables |
Determines how many discrete pieces of document text (‘strings’) AutoDoc HSE can dynamically store to use in the delivery content. e.g. an invoice may contain a customer’s name, and the invoice total. Both these pieces of information could be reproduced dynamically in the body of the email, by using two AutoDoc HSE variables to store the information. |
