In todays fast moving marketplace, the development of document and printing applications towards apparently simple hardware or operating system specific functions is not only the slowest, but also the most expensive method. A MIDDLEWARE concept is required to protect the tremendous application development investment from the changing hardware and software platforms.

Based on this architectured concept, ISIS has developed the most powerful document application development tools. Large banks or insurances, government organisations, industry and service corporation such as direct marketing companies, all require the speed of development and the operating system and printer independence, as is inherent in the Papyrus LifeCycle Concept.
