Allyant Accessible Documents

Co-exhibiting with Allyant - Booth 209

SPEAKING SESSIONS:

Using AI to Automate Large Scale Document Remediation

Producing accessible PDF documents at an enterprise scale is never easy. More so, the Customer Communication Management (CCM) systems used to create statements, letters, policies, invoices, records, and more require specific expertise to build accessible templates, not always fully supporting complex content. Worse yet, they tend to lack fully integrated, innovative best-practice testing tools to ensure outputs meet ADA and accessibility standards like WCAG and PDF/UA. The result: an untenable ability to remediate the ever-increasing number of existing PDFs and reach a state of relative compliance. We will use Allyant's highly advanced deep neural network AI to show how document generation becomes more intelligent over time. Furthermore, as the solution produces files, the algorithms are continually enhanced through our quality assurance and post-processing methodology. Essentially, the tool is "taught" through accessible sample documents how to properly tag PDF documents. This ensures those documents are fully accessible to work seamlessly with screen readers and other assistive technologies.

INKISH.TV at Printing United 2023 Videos

Printing United 2023 · Peter Georges · High Speed Inkjet · Screen USA

Screen has been a partner with Solimar for years – and both Solimar and Screen often emphasize the importance of the relationship. Fast printers require fast processing and optimized data – but listen to Peter Georges from Screen.

Printing United 2023 · Henry Perez · President · Financial Statement Services (FSSI)

Operating a printing facility handling highly personal financial data requires the right people, software, and, broadly speaking, security around your facilities, and that’s exactly the story of FSSI. Financial Statement Service, or FSSI, is a security printer relying on Solimar software hardware from Screen, Canon, and more. In this interview with Henry Perez, we understand the challenges and opportunities of operating a security print facility. It is a fascinating story, and also a very engaging story. It’s nice to get to know Henry Perez better.

Printing United 2023 · Eric Hollingsworth · Vice President of Operations at RevSpring

Listening to Eric Hollingsworth is nothing but impressive. RevSpring is a well-known company, but more than 1 billion pages annually are part of what they do – listen to Eric Hollingsworth and learn – how he uses Solimar to secure his workflow best!

Printing United 2023 · Eric Hollingsworth · Vice President of Operations at RevSpring

Listening to Eric Hollingsworth is nothing but impressive. RevSpring is a well-known company, but more than 1 billion pages annually are part of what they do – listen to Eric Hollingsworth and learn – how he uses Solimar to secure his workflow best!

Printing United 2023 · Maggie Curry · National Manager · RISO

Our opening question to Maggie Curry is, “How important is it to have partners like Solimar?” – Of course, it’s important. Though the answer isn’t surprising, it’s still something that some PSPs may not prioritize at the same level as investing in hardware. Maggie Curry from RISO gives you great insights in this interview, so listen and enjoy!

Printing United 2023 · Al Kennickell · The Kennickell Group

Passing on your company to the next generation is filled with emotions, but shaping a business with a great understanding of software, hardware, and all the human capital it takes to create an interesting business. And interesting it is, as the business does transactional print but has, after an investment in an MGI 3D JetVarnish, focused on getting more embellishment customers. Files and workflow are essential, and Solimar delivers software to ensure a smooth operation, but listen for yourself to this super nice interview with Al Kennickel.

SPEAKING SESSIONS:

Both of these processes have enabled huge postal savings (100K+) and improved patient and nursing services.
