Berlin. In October 2015, Foxit Software acquired LuraTech. As the next logical step on this path, LuraTech is now being renamed to Foxit Europe GmbH. This makes LuraTech a part of a global business and a leading provider of fast, cost-effective, secure PDF software solutions. The Foxit product portfolio – in particular, its established PDF solution PhantomPDF – will enjoy a more significant presence in Europe with local sales and support teams. The server-based products LuraTech PDF Compressor and Rendition Server will continue to see ongoing development work. The company’s established contact persons, its support team and its offices in Berlin and Remscheid will also be retained under the name of “LuraTech, a department of Foxit Europe”.

With 425 million users worldwide and over 100,000 customers, Foxit is a leading provider of fast, cost-effective and secure PDF software solutions. As well as the company’s flagship product, Foxit PhantomPDF, notable products include the free, award-winning Foxit PDF Reader and Foxit ConnectedPDF. This recently-released groundbreaking technology improves productivity when creating, sharing and tracking PDF documents and makes it easier to collaborate on documents worldwide.

The portfolio is completed by LuraTech’s products, the PDF Compressor for compressing files and converting them to PDF and PDF/A, and the Rendition Server, a centralized platform for standardized business-wide conversion of documents to PDF and PDF/A. Foxit Europe is therefore able to present itself as a European provider with a much broader product range, making it a “one-stop shop” for PDF solutions.

Carsten Heiermann, Managing Director of Foxit Europe GmbH, said: “As a department of Foxit Europe, we can now rely on a very large pool of fundamental PDF technology, making us the top PDF center of excellence in Europe. We are able to offer our inherited LuraTech customers a rapid series of innovations across the entire PDF sector, and our users will benefit from local representation and support.”
