Techniker Krankenkasse, one of Germany's largest health insurance companies, has successfully implemented Foxit PDF Compressor to enhance its document processing capabilities, specifically in managing the daily influx of up to 6,000 customer bonus booklets. Originally scanned as large TIFF files, these booklets posed significant challenges in terms of storage and transmission due to their substantial file sizes. To address these issues, the organization turned to Foxit PDF Compressor, which allowed for the conversion of these bulky files into compressed PDF/A documents.
By utilizing Foxit’s advanced compression technology, Techniker Krankenkasse achieved an impressive reduction in file sizes—by as much as 100-fold—while maintaining the integrity and quality of the images within the documents. This optimization not only ensured that the visual aspects of the booklets were preserved but also significantly decreased storage costs and bandwidth usage. As a result, the network remained available for other essential tasks, improving overall operational efficiency within the organization.
The integration of Foxit PDF Compressor into Techniker Krankenkasse's existing systems was seamless, facilitating the archiving and transmission of data without disrupting daily operations. This streamlined approach has enabled staff to manage large volumes of documents more effectively, allowing for quicker access to information and reducing the time spent on administrative tasks. The efficiency gains have proven invaluable in an environment where timely access to customer information is crucial for delivering high-quality service.
Looking ahead, Techniker Krankenkasse plans to further enhance its document management processes by introducing digital signatures. This addition aims to optimize the workflow even more by allowing for secure and efficient signing of documents, eliminating the need for physical signatures and reducing processing times. Overall, the implementation of Foxit PDF Compressor has positioned Techniker Krankenkasse to meet the evolving demands of its operations while maintaining a strong focus on customer service and operational excellence.
