Enterprise-grade template printing system

Question

Hi. I'm looking for an enterprise-grade template printing system. I'm interested in every software I can get my hands on to evaluate. Commercial or not.

What I need - a separate system ready to receive tags in order to print (digital or paper) a template (like a contract, invoice, etc). Templates should be managed by the same software. It should operate via web services or via enterprise bus (preferable JMS or MQSeries connectors).

Can I ask for some names and possibly some URLs? Anything will be helpful even if it does not fit the requirements exactly.

Thanks.

Calligo is a commercial package from InSystems. Can't reach the web site right now; could be a bad sign.

Then there are these open source possibilities.

Answer 2

This is an old question, but for the Googlers out there, we use a couple of products to render documents in XSL-FO (a W3C standard paper specification that we generate using XSL) either to PDF, PostScript, etc. We use it to show documents online as well as bulk print a few hundred thousand of them monthly.

• RenderX (.NET, Java, whatever) provides a very powerful solution for our bulk printing needs
• IBEX PDF Creator (.NET only) for online rendering to PDF
