1 Beta UX DistributionMaster High-Performance Output Management System for Unix Platforms Centralized administration and distribution of documents throughout the company regardless of the originating platform, as well as legally compliant archiving Reduced number of production processes and errors thanks to consolidated information Increased transparency and auditable processing workflows across the entire company

2 Management Summary Ever since fax, and the Internet have become key channels for exchanging information within and outside the company, the printer is no longer the single means of communication. Companies therefore require powerful infrastructure solutions that enable effective documentbased business processes. Moreover, flexible IT solutions are required that guarantee compliance with legal and internal provisions and regulations. Beta UX DistributionMaster is a standard component of the Beta UX MasterSuite. The powerful output management system offers functions for centralized administration of the entire output and ensures efficient document distribution across all channels in a Unix environment. Distribute Information Beta UX DistributionMaster provides a platform for customized processing of information delivered from various corporate applications that create documents. Beta UX DistributionMaster takes control of the data right after they are generated, converts incoming data streams to suitable print data streams if required, and triggers output based on preconfigured parameters without the need for any manual intervention since print processes are automatically controlled and monitored. This means that it delivers the right document at the right time and in the desired format to the right recipient at the end of the business process both automatically and economically. Instead of making a printout, information can also be forwarded via , fax or as an upload to a website. Data is also archived when dispatched, so it remains available for future use. Beta UX DistributionMaster thus brings improved transparency to all document processing workflows. Thanks to a three-layered architecture and its modular design, Beta UX DistributionMaster integrates seamlessly into any existing IT environment. Formatting programs are easily integrated into the production process illustrated above, which makes it possible to transform all received data into an individual corporate layout. 2

3 High-performance output management system for Unix platforms Print Less You can save a lot of time and money by printing only documents you actually need as a hardcopy. Basically, any information available in digital format can be delivered to the recipient (employee, customer, interested party) in a number of paper-free ways. In this context, Beta UX DistributionMaster acts as a hub for replacing or upgrading old print and dispatch solutions. The system generates custommade output from the various programs and delivers it to the desired recipients via fax or . If you want to leave it up to the recipient to decide whether or not to retrieve the information provided, invoices, account statements and other customer-specific documents can be stored on a distribution server that recipients can access via ID and password. Business-critical applications such as those used in banks, insurance companies and public agencies generate lists that originate in the data center and are then printed and sent to the respective branch or administrative office. There it is quite often divided into smaller units as part of a time-consuming manual process before the individual components are delivered to the processors in charge. Beta UX DistributionMaster can perform this separation automatically and then delivers the data to the processors sorted according to recipient, place or any other category. Output intended for large target groups might include product information, manuals, test versions, updates and press releases. Beta UX Distribution- Master can be used to convert such data to a format suitable for the target platform before it is published on the corporate website or social networks for viewing or download. 3

5 High-performance output management system for Unix platforms Beta UX DistributionMaster Benefits Electronic output administration (documents, lists, forms...) Supports numerous channels for distributing data / $ Reduces Print costs Warehousing costs Operating costs (materials) Hard- and software costs Optimizes Mailing costs System workload Personnel resources Optimized Printing Despite many paperless options, a large share of the total output is still printed and delivered to the recipients by mail or courier. To support the related processes, Beta UX DistributionMaster distributes the documents to the existing printing lines and high-performance printers, thus ensuring that the load is ideally divided among the corporate printer network. Follow-up printouts can be made from the local workstation at any time and in the case of AFP the associated form can be included. 5
