We use IXOS to do this sort of thing. Runs on an AIX server and writes out
to a CD WORM drive; an IBM C20 in our case, (not to be confused with the old
C20 RS/6000). There might well be a Windows version, but I'm not sure.

>
>
> AIXers,
>
> Can anyone recommend a software vendor or a WINDOWS software package
> which does COLD (Computer Output to Laser Disc) or COOL (Computer
> Output On-Line) and is reasonably priced and easy to use?
>
> Brief Scenario:
>
> From our administrative software system, many GREEN-BAR reports are
> generated for our student account receivables, accounts payable,
> general ledger, payroll, etc. These reports are normally generated
> at the end of the calendar year or the end of our fiscal year.
> These reports are copied to another directory from the UniVerse (U2)
> spool directory. Our volume is probably on the low end but could
> increase if we find a solution.
>
> In the past, these GREEN-BAR reports are dumped to 9-track tape,
> sent to a vendor who creates the microfiche. Each computer printout
> page is a separate frame on the fiche. The vendor does some indexing
> from the GREEN-BAR reports and also places a header on the top of the
> fiche which has information about it's contents.
