Qoppa Software Integrates qPDF Notes with Box OneCloud

PDF viewing, markup, and form filling now available to millions of Android Box users

Atlanta – June 25 2012 – Qoppa Software, a leading provider of PDF solutions, announced it has integrated its Android PDF editing app, qPDF Notes, with Box OneCloud to power mobile document collaboration and productivity. qPDF Notes’ integration with Box helps millions of individuals and companies easily work from their Android tablets and smartphones on forms, drawings, contracts, and other PDF files managed on Box OneCloud.

Qoppa users can now simply open PDF documents from Box OneCloud directly into qPDF Notes and use the application’s powerful editing capabilities to:

fill interactive PDF forms
review and markup PDF documents
digitally sign PDF documents

Once editing is finished, documents can be saved straight back to Box with a single tap. The integration is transparent to users and makes editing PDF files stored in the cloud as simple as editing local files.

“This collaboration between Qoppa and Box is a big step to improve document handling on the go. PDF is the de facto electronic collaboration format on mobile devices where editing has to be easy, graphical, and intuitive. The great thing with the PDF format is that annotations are saved as part of the document itself and thus can be viewed by any recipient on any capable PDF viewer.” says Gerald Holmann, president of Qoppa Software.

PDF documents are an integral part of business workflow today and qPDF Notes is used by companies and professionals in various industries including architects, contractors, educators as well as real estate and medical professionals.
