AFP2XML Transform Server enables users to batch convert AFP documents IBM MO:DCA (AFP, IOCA and PTOCA) to XML via an input folder and output folder. Unlike other software solutions simply rasterizing the AFP document to full-page images, AFP2XML Transform Server maintains all document objects such as graphics, searchable text, tables and live forms, uniquely within the generated XML for easy access by other applications.
