Hybrid Output Management

But with the Lettershop from iDPARC our internal customers can now easily configure their multilingual mailing orders from A to Z themselves. iDPARC's Lettershop simplifies the ordering of complex lettershop jobs enormously.»

Phase I – Data handover

Phase III – Output and documentation

Phase IV – Print and dispatch

Phase I – Data handover

User-friendly handover of data

No matter in which file format your data is available and which transport way is to be used. We make it easy for you, because we support (almost) all options.

Phase II – Data processing

We offer extensive processing of your data

  • Automated data validation
    All records are checked for validity according to customer rules and, if necessary, are documented in a comprehensive report.
  • Add control information
    Each shipment gets an individual SetCode, is automatically stamped and gets a LetterID for tracking purposes.
  • Add additional dynamic documents
    You are sending an invoice to your customers? We can dynamically create a payment slip with QR code from your data. Additional, personalized documents, which should only be added to certain records, are no problem. Whitespace management - we can do that too.
  • Content transformation
    Whether the content needs to be scaled or rotated, we make it fit for the output size! The same applies to blank pages in duplex printing.
  • Grouping and enclosure control
    Mailings can be grouped according to any criteria (language, paper, etc.). Each grouping can have its own enclosures added.
  • Sorting
    Finally, the shipments are sorted by the country of the recipient, and within the country by the shipment size.
