HTML Form Generator
Introduction
HTML Form Generator is a multilingual HTML format data entry
form generator, dedicated to document printing.
HTML Form Generator allows you to create forms quickly and easily, thanks to a wizard that guides you through the whole operation.
The application allows you to associate a data entry form with each existing document, in a similar way to the Form in your labeling software. The major advantage of using HTML is that it can be edited quickly and easily using a wide range of software packages, such as FrontPage, Word, and so on. This gives you total control over the way your forms look.
Once generated, these forms can be used alone on your local workstation, or coupled with Sentinel Print Pack on your company’s intranet. When operating in classic Form mode, data is entered manually by the operator and printed locally. When operating in automated mode, data is transmitted in the form of records in a file, with final printing carried out by Sentinel Print Pack.
