Normica Batch-Processor
Profit from using the excellent features of Normica Batch-Processor 3: Automatic editing, printing, plotting and export for optimum sharing of data in suitable formats for all departments of your company.
The Normica scheduler and hot folders function allows you to create integrated work-flows. Thanks to its intelligent scaling and rotation features, your drawings are always correctly aligned. You can export to a CAD optimized PDF and EPS. In addition to WMF, Normica exports EMF that can be perfectly imported by Microsoft products. DWF (Drawing Web Format) is for Internet presentations of CAD files. And DXF export makes it easy to continue working on plot-data in CAD and illustration software. Exporting to raster formats in different color definitions and compression types is also supported.
Optimum compatibility through the creation of plotter-independent HP-GL/2 files. For fast print jobs, efficient RTL files can be generated from HP-GL/2 and bitmaps. Export projects can also be controlled using command prompt entries, allowing you to integrate NORMICA's functions into other Windows systems.
Main features of Normica Batch-Processor 3:
- Automatic interface between CAD, DTP, archives, Internet, print and plot services.
- Input formats: HP-GL/2 (incl. RTL, PCL 5), HP-GL, RTL, BMP, TIFF, JPEG, JPEG2000, PSD
- Output formats: HP-GL/2, RTL, BMP, TIFF, JPEG, JPEG 2000, PSD, PDF (incl. PDF/A), EPS, DWF, DXF, WMF, EMF
- Intelligent rotating and scaling functions
- Editing pen colors and widths
- Hot folders
- Versatile Scheduler
- Log files
- Import, position and scale BMP, TIFF, JPEG, PSD and other raster data within bitmaps and plot files
- Importing text and text files
- Easy to use graphic user interface
- Execution operational via command line, very flexible to use
For viewing, editing, printing and plotting single files, we recommend Normica View or Normica View Pro, which can be opened within the Normica Batch-Processor.

Potential uses of Normica Batch-Processor 3:
- To automate frequently reoccurring print, plot, edit and export actions, which used to be performed manually by an operator (using scanners, image-processing systems, etc.) or by less than reliable software.
- Thanks to the NORMICA Scheduler, these actions can also be performed during the off hours. Plot data (HP-GL/2, HP-GL, RTL) and bitmaps are automatically converted into other formats for archiving, documentation, marketing purposes, the Internet, tender documentation and other purposes with absolute reliability.
- The Hot Folders function allows you to monitor directories to automate processes and lower your resource requirements.
- Intelligent scaling techniques allow you to produce batches of easy-to-read reductions.
- Insert raster and text files allows you to incorporate your company stamp into any document.
- Thanks to NORMICA's optimization functions, once HP-GL/2 files have been saved with NORMICA, they are generally compatible with all HP-GL/2 plotters. For example, HP 1055 plot data can be sent to an OCÉ 9600, Xerox or Canon plotter, etc. (and vice versa).
- Optimization functions (for bitmaps and vectors within HP-GL/2) help to drastically reduce file size and keep plot times to a minimum.
- Changing the plot settings and the resolution in the HP-GL/2 files helps to improve output quality and speed even further.
- Commands can also be executed using command-prompt entry, which means that functions can be incorporated into any suitable Windows system.
- The ‘File Operations’ action allows you to execute user-defined commands from other programs on your Windows system. This allows you to further process files selected by NORMICA and export results automatically using appropriate programs.
- Report files ensure reliable control of your export processes.
