Benefits

• Efficient


• Ideal for all automated processes with PDF output.
  Thanks to the complete automation,
  an efficient and cost-saving creation of
  barrier-free documents is achieved.




• Scalable


• With a template-based solution such as axesFlip,
  the amount of documents is fully scalable on
  the customer side and can be adapted to
  a wide range of requirements.




• Versatile use


• axesFlip saves time and money:
  Your templates are tailored exactly to
  the specific needs of your organization.

Each document template can be flexibly expanded
and covers a variety of similar PDF documents;
so you need fewer templates to achieve more.





• Legally compliant


• High-quality accessible documents are
  created with axesFlip within a very short time.

You will achieve legally compliant accessibility
requirements for automated PDF documents
without changing your existing processes.

axesFlip Designer is a stand-alone program to:

• analyze your PDF documents, and


• create a template in Json format.

The template describes the elements of the PDF document
(logo, body text, tables, etc.) in all their complexity.

The axesFlip Worker is an execution engine
that takes two inputs:

• a non-accessible PDF document
  (as a file or a stream)


• a template authored with the axesFlip Designer

With this as input, the axesFlip Worker converts
non-accessible PDF documents to accessible PDFs.

You have several options for running
axesFlip Worker in your system environment:

• as a Command Line Interface (CLI)


• as a REST Service


• as an SDK integrated in your custom software

axesFlip Worker is designed to batch-convert
thousands of similar PDFs in a row.
axesFlip reaches a performance of
dozens to hundreds of pages per second,
depending on the complexity of the PDF document.

The architecture of axesFlip that combines proven
axes4 building blocks with new components.

The core of axesFlip consists of three main parts:

• the technical analysis and processing of
  PDF documents (as in axesPDF).


• the basic architecture for so called
  nodes (feature elements) that
  can be concatenated into a graph.

  Nodes with various functions such as
  element selection, sorting or tagging
  are available or can easily be added
  without changing the architecture.



• a custom expression language that
  allows you to capture PDF objects
  in a simple and effective way.

The expression language is
flexible, powerful and targeted
at its specific use case.

• Elements in your PDF document can be
  selected dynamically (e.g. depending on their
  relative position to other elements).

axesFlip can, for example,
tag tables correctly regardless of
whether they have 4 or 40 lines.



• axesFlip can tag complex documents
  (e.g. tables, lists or combinations thereof)
  completely and technically correctly.



• Templates can be created efficiently and flexibly
  using the node graph and the expression language.

With a single template, many types of documents
can be made accessible (invoice, reminder,
credit note, in several languages).
