    Frequently asked questions on document conversion services

    Does the DocShifter team also digitize our paper documents?

    No, digitizing paper documents is not a service we offer. Our starting point is digital documents and conversion of your digital documents. 

    We do not offer document digitalization or scanning services. 

    What is DocShifter?

    DocShifter provides advanced content conversion transformation that creates high quality and high-fidelity
    conversions from one file format to another.

     

    It is a high-performance, highly scalable, server-based document transformation solution with an intuitive drag & drop interface that performs any-to-PDF (and any to any) conversions.

     

    DocShifter is
    installed on-premise or in your private cloud, is centrally administered, and runs in the background.

     

    DocShifter can be integrated with a number of document management systems or to systems via
    API/REST Services, and picks up the documents to be rendered at set intervals.

     

    Additionally, other
    existing systems can be easily coupled to DocShifter. This removes the need for standalone software
    on the desktop. Workflows are easily set up, to specify the output to comply with your specific
    requirements.

     

    DocShifter centralises and standardises this process, ensuring consistency and reducing the risk of
    errors. Existing processes are simplified, and drastically sped up.
    You can create PDF to any required version (1.4 – 1.7 or PDF/A) depending on the need, control specific
    features (OCR, bookmarking, etc). With the intuitive, web-based drag & drop interface, DocShifter
    offers the unique ability to save & configure fully automated workflows.
    The solution is developed in-house by DocShifter.

    Where is DocShifter software deployed?

    The DocShifter product can be deployed on premise, in Windows, either directly onto hardware or
    using VMWare. For future reference it is also possible to deploy in Linux environments and using
    Docker / Kubernetes infrastructure.

    Does DocShifter software support optical character recognition(OCR)?

    DocShifter allows for fully automated OCR from any file format supported; this includes all the image
    formats listed in the RFP (plus many more). The accuracy of the results depends entirely on the quality
    of the images being OCR’ed so there is no way to guarantee 90% accuracy unless the quality of the
    source content can be guaranteed.

    How does the DocShifter software handle transformation errors?

    A number of methods are available for tracking processing errors in DocShifter.


    ● If a job was submitted via web services any errors or warnings will be returned via the
    response message for immediate action. Different HTTP status codes are returned depending on the type of issue.
    ● Notifications can also be configured to send alerts via email, SNMP, Webhook or to another
    database. These can be configured specifically for each workflow created and differently
    based on whether it is a fatal error or a warning only error.
    ● There is an Error Log feature in the administration Console that lists any jobs that have failed.
    ● Detailed job logs are also available to provide much more detail for the cause of any issue.

    Where appropriate, a job will retry, but depending on the error this will not always occur.

    Is there any data exchange with third-party services?

    No data is exchanged between DocShifter and any other third-party entity. We value the privacy of your documents. 

    We used to lose data during conversions. How do you handle it?

    DocShifter has been designed to work in regulated industries where extremely high-quality and high-
    fidelity results are expected. All formatting and content will be included in the results. Some configuration will be required to ensure the results are as required, and it is important to ensure that
    any fonts used are available (otherwise formatting may change based on the font substitutions
    required when a font is not installed).


    In the specific case of Excel (and OpenOffice Calc) files, DocShifter has a number of options available
    to ensure any hidden information or wide sheets are formatted appropriately in the results.
    DocShifter Insights (metrics and reports) provides clear visibility into the number of incoming conversion requests and the number of successful and unsuccessful results. This information can be
    filtered and viewed in a number of different ways- both tabular and graphically.

    Does DocShifter support RESTful API?

    Yes. DocShifter fully exposes its functionality via a standard RESTful API.

    How does DocShifter handle confidentiality and security?

    We understand that you might have some questions regarding security and confidentiality. 

    By its nature, the software we use to convert your documents (DocShifter) does not store any data or documents during conversion. 

    Moreover, as conversion takes place in your hardware/infrastructure, no one from the DocShifter team is able to access the content of your documents. 

    We value your privacy. And that of your documents. 

     

    Professional document transformation services for all your projects involving file format conversion.

    See what our beloved customers have to say about us:

    "DocShifter is converting 36.000 documents per day, coming from all over our company (and external). We have no control over what is coming in. And still the failure rate is below 1%.

    And what really sets it apart from what we were doing before, DocShifter tells us what went wrong, so we can act upon the documents that did not convert".
    Operations Manager Large European Bank
    "DocShifter will save us over 750 hours of manual work per year. And we expect the time savings to increase as we continue to expand our use of DocShifter.

    This is significant for our clients who need the eCTD sequences to be published quickly, accurately and efficiently. "
    Jennie MayDirector, Regulatory Operations - PharmaLex
    "Very powerful tool for document conversion and generation. The DocShifter software goes further than our current needs, and from my point of view quite unique in the industry. Quick adaption due to user-friendly workflow creation functionalities. Possibility to create workflows in a user-friendly (non-IT) way. Possibilities for seamlessly integrations into existing solutions."
    Kris V.ITS Business Partner, Clinical Development
    "We are using DocShifter in conjunction with Documentum software. The rendition performance that is observed so far is more than 4000 documents per hour (on 1 single instance). The output provided is fully compliant to health authority specifications (FDA, EMA, PMDA, HC, SwissHealth, etc.) and is configurable for different countries. A true enterprise document conversion solution.”
    Piyush J. Solution Manager
    "We use DocShifter to prepare compliant, submission-ready PDF renditions for all regulatory content.

    The product is reliable, extremely fast and produces output that is compliant with multiple Health Authorities."
    Large US biotechnology companyRegulatory Information Systems Manager
    "We implemented DocShifter into production and have converted over 35.000 documents. Our failure rate has dropped from over 10% to well under 0.1%. We have seen an astronomical improvement in our document conversion processes thanks to how easy DocShifter was to implement and to use. In the course of 12 months, we are going to convert more than 100.000 documents with DocShifter. Fantastic document conversion solution!”
    Chris B. IT System Administrator - PeopleScout Technology
    "We have documentation in different languages, but when converting everything to PDF for submissions, things got complicated really fast. Our rendition engine couldn't cope with all those fonts, and we lost a lot of time fixing problems that weren't supposed to be there in the first place. We decided to make a switch to DocShifter. Scalability during our peak times, ability to deal with multiple fonts, automation (conversion of source documents to simultaneous submission-ready PDFs for multiple health authorities) and performance. These are just some of the things that make DocShifter such a powerful rendering engine."
    Jade O. Document Management Professional
    "We selected DocShifter for the incredible ease-of-use, the simple configuration and implementation, the high-quality ICH compliant output, and the huge number of formats supported. Performance is excellent, and we reduced the number of rendition servers by a factor of 3. All of this, plus the company’s responsiveness made it an easy choice."
    Regulatory Operations & Global Submissions SpecialistLarge pharmaceutical company
    "DocShifter powers the document conversion solution in Generis’ new CARA cloud offering. “We already support many joint customers who have advanced document conversion requirements met by the integration of DocShifter with CARA. We are now happy to be able to offer this on a pre-built package with New CARA on our cloud for such customers.”
    James KelleherCEO - Generis
    "As we are in the middle of a paradigm shift from analogue to digital in Japan, I have been looking for the right solution to support this for many years. In DocShifter we have found a company with solutions that have been selected by organizations of all sizes because of their responsiveness, cost-effectiveness, class-leading performance and unique capabilities that rise above the competition.”
    Kosuke OmodaPresident - eSA Japan
    "One of the things we love about DocShifter is the graphic interface to configure file transformation flows. The user interface is very simple to use and rare to find within other similar document conversion products. Wide selection of connectors to different solutions (EIM & DMS systems) make DocShifter a great choice for our company as well. We also are very happy with the customer support we receive: extremely friendly and prompt.”
    Nikita L.Information Management Consultant
    "With DocShifter, we are seeing better performance with even less resources, compared to our previous solution. The deployment is very easy, and the utilization of hardware/software resources are extremely efficient. Thanks to DocShifter's architecture and not needing Office applications, we were able to save a lot of money and resources by the switch.”
