BEVERLY, Mass. /Massachusetts Newswire/ — RenderX (http://www.renderx.com), the leader in XML formatting solutions, and Altova(R) (http://www.altova.com), the creator of XMLSpy(R) and other leading XML, database, and UML tools, entered a partnership agreement to provide integrated reporting and rendering solutions.

RenderX integrated Altova MapForce(R) 2011 with the VDPMill 4.0 high-performance rendering application (http://www.renderx.com/tools/vdpmill.html). VDPMill is a complete solution that can generate hundreds of pages per second (PDF, PostScript, AFP, XPS, PPML, SVG, and HTML). VDPMill 4.0 Altova MapForce Edition is a complete, out-of-the-box reporting solution which can work with any data source, such as XML (including industry standards, such as HL7 3.x or XBRL), databases, Web services, flat files, or EDI (such as HL7 2.x or HIPAA 5010).

Alexander Falk, Altova's President and CEO, commented on the release of this new product: "The RenderX integration of VDPMill 4.0 with Altova MapForce 2011 provides customers with a very powerful combination for high-speed rendering of reports from databases, XML, and essential industry-standard formats, including XBRL, HL7, HIPAA, and EDI."

Altova MapForce 2011 has been tested in a database reporting workflow which also included RenderX and VDPMill, as follows:

– Altova MapForce was used to develop database-to-XML mapping for the data.
– A graphical XML report editor was used to design reports.
– RenderX VDPMill was used to generate reports.

This workflow can be successfully used in all industries where customers are billed or statements are delivered on a periodic basis, such as banking, investment, utilities, telecommunications, etc.
