An Australian consultant who has been involved in FOI for years
recommended to me two useful software products for processing FOI
requests electronically (using PDF files). They are both produced by
'Appligent'. One is called 'Redax' and enables you to safely redact
exempt information from documents, while inserting the relevant section
of the Act from a drop down list in the empty space. The second one is
called 'Stamp' and enables you to put a watermark through every page of
the document eg 'FOI release', so that you can always identify documents
released through FOI. It also has a facility for numbering all the pages
included in the response package. I have seen a demonstration of both
products and they looked useful. Apparently they are already being used
for FOI in the States and Australia.
A quick Internet search reveals several UK suppliers stock these
products.
Has anyone already purchased these or any other similar software?
Kind regards

Dear All,
Just spotted this and thought a few of you might be interested in the
free Acrobat 7.0 training course on offer early next year! Learn how to
create, manage, review, collaborate and secure critical documents,
saving hours of unnecessary work every week.
