RE: creating books/catalogs for the web/pdf/paper from System I data

Our iForms product can be used to generate data driven reports and
documents.

Your documents can be married up with images on the fly for your web
apps or you can use our WebDocs software as a repository for CAD
drawings and the generated documents.

For more info feel free to contact me directly or one of our sales team
offline.

subject: creating books/catalogs for the web/pdf/paper from System i
data

What architecture are you guys using these days to integrate your System
i data so that your customer-facing marketing brochures, parts catalogs,
etc., that you previously printed on paper, can be formatted to the web
and eliminate paper to the extent possible? Up till now our marketing
department has its own database exclusively for creating customer parts
catalogs

We want it to look as similar as possible to our existing printed
product catalogs.

We currently write our Web applications in open-source PHP, not ZEND,
and I really think that we should find some business partner Oracle that
integrates JD Edwards World data to the web.


Data currently resides on separate servers:
Product descriptions and item prices reside in JDE World on the System
i.
CAD drawings and item photographs currently reside on windows servers,
not on the IFS.
