Highwire by CORDA Technologies

HTML to PDF Converter Software. Highwire is one of the easiest ways to convert your Web pages into PDF documents. Highwire quickly and accurately transforms well-formed HTML into superb PDF. Since Highwire runs on your server, the end-user doesn't need any software other than a Web browser with a free Adobe Reader® plug-in. Generate PDF reports from your Web pages – statements, reports, invoices, receipts and more. Corda offers two versions, Highwire and Highwire Enterprise.

Highwire runs as a server on virtually any version of Unix, Linux and Windows. It can be installed on its own server or on a machine which is running unrelated third party software.

Highwire combines seamlessly with PopChart and OptiMap.

Once installed, Highwire PDF conversions are accessed by simply linking a Web page to the Highwire server. Execution can be as simple as inserting a "Create a PDF" link on the Web page you wish to convert.

How does it work?

The most common process for converting Web pages and other HTML/XHTML based documents to PDF with Corda Server's Highwire is as follows:

You build a Web page - This Web page can be static or generated by a separate Web application

You build a simple Web application that sends this page tot he CORDA Server - With the help of the Corda Embedder utility, this task can be accomplished using just a few lines of code. If your Web page is generated by a Web application, this code can be embedded directly within that Web application

When a client browses to the Web page, they can click on a button or link which initiates the Web application - The Corda Embedder can even generate an appropriate button for you

The CORDA Server will translate the specified Web page into a PDF document and return it to the user's browser - The Corda Embedder utility allows you to do this in two separate ways: 1) redirect users to the document on Corda Server itself; and 2) have your Web application fetch the document from Corda Server and then pass that document on to the client

Use Highwire to share enterprise information in PDF reports

Highwire is the right product for your company to convert HTML, dynamic web pages, and dashboards into high quality PDF reports. Using Highwire, when a user navigates or browses to a web page, dashboard, or dynamic graph, they can click on a button or link which translates the specified page into a PDF document. Highwire supports automatic adjustment of fonts to fit typical page sizes, column headings in tables are carried over to multiple pages, and headers and footers are supported when converting dynamic web pages. Highwire also supports cascading style sheets and nested tables, and even preserves HTML hyperlinks in the PDF document itself.

Highwire Definitions of Features:

Conversion of HTML to PDF, using well-formed HTML

Highwire quickly and easily converts most web-pages created with well-formed HTML into PDF reports. A document is well-formed when it is structured according to the rules defined in Section 2.1 of the XML 1.0 Recommendation. Basically, this definition states that elements, delimited by their start and end tags, are nested properly within one another.

Headers and footers

Highwire can be used to automatically create headers and/or footers for each page of the PDF document. This feature can be used to improve the appearance of the report or to include disclaimers and/or other legally-required warnings.

Column headings in tables can carry over to multiple pages

When an HTML table carries over to more than one page in the PDF report, Highwire can automatically create column headers for the second and each succeeding page of the table.

Automatic adjustment of fonts to fit into typical page sizes

When an HTML page is rendered by Highwire, the program will attempt to adjust fonts and other design elements in order to fit the web page into a single PDF page or, if this is not possible, Highwire will intelligently format the PDF document over multiple pages.

Insert Corda images into PDF as vector images

When PopChart and/or OptiMap are used with Highwire, any graphs or maps will be inserted into the PDF file as a vector image, ensuring the highest-quality viewing and output while reducing the size of the PDF file.

Support for cascading style sheets

Cascading style sheets are a common feature of most modern commercial web sites. Highwire supports most features of cascading style sheets.

Support for nested tables

Nested tables are often used to create the "right" look and to position web page elements precisely. Highwire handles most nested tables without difficulty.

Preservation of HTML hyperlinks in the PDF document

When Highwire converts a web page or web pages into a PDF document, any hyperlinks on the web page will be carried over into the PDF report.

Accessibility - Section 508 Compliant

PDF documents present a significant problem for visually-impaired Web visitors who use screen-readers. When a conventional PDF document includes a graph or a map, no provision is made to ensure that the visually-impaired have equal access to the information included in the graph or map. When Highwire is used to generate a PDF containing a PopChart graph or an OptiMap map, Corda's D-Link technology can be used to automatically insert a text description of the graph or map which can be accessed with a screen reader.

D-LINK DESCRIPTIVE TEXT Highwire's devotion to accessibility for the visually impaired makes it easy for you to create 508 compliant PDF files, including PopChart graphs and OptiMap maps.

Highwire automatically provides D-Link text for every PopChart graph or OptiMap map it creates. D-Link is a textual description to assist visually impaired who browse the web with screen readers. This textual description describes each data item in the graph, and is fully customizable using templates and macros.

Not only does Highwire D-Link describe your data, it also provides the same interactive features and annotations that sighted users would see viewing the graph or map. For example, visually impaired users can navigate from one text-description to another using drill-down links. Navigation through large amounts of data is simple, fast and convenient.

Security

Separate COMM Port - All communication between the Highwire server, your web server, and your database takes place over a secure port that is different from the one used to serve documents to clients. This ensures that data and other information passed to Highwire will remain inside of your firewall, while Highwire can still deliver reports to the outside world.

HTTP Redirect - Deliver PDF reports from your web server instead of the Highwire server using HTTP Redirection. HTTP Redirection allows web servers to handle requests to the Highwire server for reports. The web server forwards the request to the Highwire server (which rests completely behind your firewall) which returns a report back to the web server. The report is then forwarded back to the client who requested it.

This has two benefits: 1) you do not have to expose an additional port through your firewall to get Highwire to work; 2) by using the web server as a middle-man, Highwire adopts the same level of security provided by the web server. For example, if your web server provides SSL, and you use Highwire HTTP Redirection, you graphs will also benefit from SSL.

HTTP Redirection modules are available in the following forms: ISAPI (for Windows IIS), Servlet (for J2EE application servers), and Apache Module.

File and Domain Restriction - For added security, administrators can control from which paths and domains Highwire can retrieve HTML pages.

Scalability and Redundancy

Caching - Take advantage of Highwire's image cache to speed performance when multiple users view the same report. This greatly increases efficiency and reduces the load on the CPU, which can be invaluable in high traffic environments. In many cases you will see a performance increase of 10 to 30 times.

Clustering - Fully utilize the power of your multiple server system with Highwire clustering. Highwire provides clustering for high throughput and redundancy. Highwire supports multiple clustering architectures.

Server Fail Over - Prevent service failure in high-availability graphing and mapping environments by taking advantage of Highwire's backup feature for clustered servers. With server failover, when one server in a cluster goes down, another server in the cluster seamlessly picks up the load from the failed server.

Load Balancing - Highwire is compatible with external hardware or software load-balancing systems.
