Business Challenge

California State University/Long Beach library needed to provide students and faculty with electronic documents within a network structure that was beset with hardware limitations. The PDFs were often very large and exceeded the campus email limit of 200k. The network restrictions also made it difficult for students to download and retrieve PDFs when they were uploaded onto a web server.

Solution

CSU/LB licensed CVISION's PdfCompressor to optimize their documents. All incoming documents are received and processed through a watched folder, which then delivers them to their intended destination on the web.

Results

Using CVISION's PdfCompressor, CSU/LB was able to compress their documents and overcome their hardware limitations. The documents were reduced to a more manageable size, allowing for easier transfer and access from students and faculty alike. CSU/LB was able to avoid returning to hardcopy distribution and save money on their document services.
