Document Composition Software Upgrades: Challenges

Whether you are upgrading your software version or migrating to a different platform, the biggest challenge you are facing is ensuring that the content of the printed document does not change unexpectedly.

Document Composition Software Upgrades: Barr Systems' Solution

Our StreamTracer product solves the above mentioned challenge elegantly. Instead of having to print out documents using both versions of the software and then visually comparing them, StreamTracer automates the entire process for you. All you have to do is provide StreamTracer with both files. The product will compare them and display all the differences in a WYSIWYG environment. Through visual markers, you can quickly see differences so that you can determine if they should be accepted or rejected.

If you implement StreamTracer, you will never have to wonder anymore whether the document produced by your old composition software version has remained unchanged. You will know for sure!
