Xplor International〔Technology Trends: Xplor Directions Survey, Dr. Keith Davidson PhD, edp, ''Enterprise Journal, 1998''. Example of Xplor industry research on transaction documents and laser printing trends http://esj.com/article.aspx?ID=10229843143PM〕 also known as The Electronic Document Systems Association is an international trade association specifically focused on the issues of transaction documents. Transaction documents are legally relevant documents that are either printed and mailed or are electronically delivered e.g. bills, bank statements, insurance policies etc. The acronym XPLOR was derived from ''Xerox Printer Liaison ORganization'', the original association name. Xplor expanded its mission in 1983 to include other vendors' technology and adopted the acronym as the organization's name. == History == Xplor International was founded in 1980 as a trade association specifically for transaction document applications, due to the difference in emphasis on variable data. Originally a user group for the Xerox 9700 laser printer, they reshaped its mission in the early 1980s to address the entire transaction document industry. Hardware companies like IBM, Siemens (later Océ), Hewlett Packard, Pitney Bowes, Böwe Bell & Howell, and Xerox have been actively involved as have software companies like Image Sciences (later Docucorp International), Document Sciences, Cincom, GMC Software Technology, Xenos, Crawford Technologies, supported Xplor in order to promote a venue for the issues that are unique to the creation of transaction documents. In the 1990s, Xplor began to shift from solely document “printing” to document “printing and presentation”, as transaction documents came to be presented on the Web. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Xplor International」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
