KEYpak® is a suite of high-fidelity document converters
designed to help organizations in the co-existence and migration of
documents between different e-mail and text processing platforms.
Whereas e-mail connectivity enables an organization to migrate
documents from legacy e-mail to LANs, the content of the document is
not necessarily usable once it reaches the target system. Filters
available in word processors and e-mail systems do basic conversions
but lose many of the special characters.
Developed by ANE Resources, KEYpak® overcomes
this problem by performing document conversion from one format to
another, from some 130 word processing systems and 17 graphics types.
These document types include not only the modern popular PC systems
but also a list of legacy document types to help in the migration of
users to client-server technology.
File Reporter technology in KEYpak® analyzes the
document before converting and determines its type, regardless of file
extension. This feature can be used stand-alone to identify up to 200
document types.
KEYpak® supports major legacy document types - MASS11,
IBM RFT, IBM FFT, DEC WPS-PLUS,.
KEYpak allows co-existence between advanced text processing systems
like MSWord, RTF, WordPerfect, AmiPro.
KEYpak allows the batching of groups of documents for conversion.

Reduces the cost of migration
Most organizations today have a plan to move from their legacy office
systems (ALL-IN-1, OfficeVision, etc.) environment to client-server
technology and personal computer networks. Migration plans often call
for a lengthy period of coexistence between these technologies, a one
to three year transition or a short term conversion. Regardless of the
term of your migration, KEYpak can reduce the cost of migrating from
host office systems to client-server technology (e.g. Profs to
Microsoft Word) by:
- saving time and resources by eliminating the need to rekey and
reconstruct documents
- saving users' time by performing conversions automatically
- eliminating the cost of user training required for document
conversions
Compatibility without the cost
To achieve compatibility, organizations must confront the costs of
standardizing on new equipment, new software and the re-training of
users. By implementing KEYpak, document compatibility can be achieved
without the heavy costs associated with standardization.
Preserve valuable business documents
KEYpak helps businesses protect their investment in valuable documents
residing on their legacy systems. KEYpak provides high-quality
conversion service among many different document formats.
Adds value to the network
Automatic file type detection and conversion reduces end-user support
needs and makes it easier for administrators to manage the network.
Adds value for end-users
With KEYpak on the server, conversions occur transparently to the
end-user. This eliminates the time and frustration spent dealing with
incompatible documents.
