Our Roots
The idea behind our software grew out of daily work in the translation and IT industry. After many years in a small translation agency and later at one of the largest translation companies in Germany, software developer Wilhelm Polmann saw how many steps in document processing were still manual, repetitive, error-prone, and time-consuming.
Based on this experience, the Sysfilter programs were developed from 2002 onwards. They helped make text from various file formats accessible for translation, review, and further processing — and then return the translated content to its original format.
Sysfilter and Tag & Code
The Sysfilter products have been an important part of our product portfolio for many years. Sysfilter for Illustrator is one of our best-selling solutions and helps professional users make text from Adobe Illustrator files efficiently accessible for translation and further processing.
At the same time, Tag & Code continues to develop this original approach: alongside proven Sysfilter solutions, we create new programs and custom software solutions for professional users, companies, language service providers, technical documentation teams, and organizations working with complex document collections.
Our goal has remained the same: software should make practical work easier, reduce repetitive tasks, and help users make informed decisions more quickly.
Our Solutions Today
SysfilterProven software solutions for professional translation and documentation workflows. Sysfilter for Illustrator, in particular, helps users make text from layout and graphics files efficiently accessible. |
Hopalys PDFOur next step toward modern PDF workflows. PDF files become easier to assess before processing, technical properties become visible, and the right processing path can be selected more quickly. |
Custom SoftwareTailored solutions for automation, interfaces, filters, data processing, and AI-supported workflows. Developed for specific requirements in companies and professional document processes. |
Custom Software Solutions
In addition to our own standard products, we also develop tailor-made software solutions for specific business requirements. Our focus is on automation, process optimization, interfaces, filter solutions, and efficient tools for recurring workflows.
Depending on the requirements, we can use classic software components, external AI services, or local AI models. This allows us to create solutions that match the technical, commercial, and data protection requirements of each company.
AutomationRecurring work steps are structured, accelerated, and made easier to trace. |
Interfaces & FiltersCustom extensions help process data and documents more efficiently between systems. |
AI-Supported WorkflowsModern AI technologies can be used in a targeted way whenever they provide meaningful process support. |
Typical development areas include custom filters, extensions and interfaces, the automation of recurring business processes, the optimization of existing document, translation and data workflows, and solutions with a special focus on controlled and data-conscious processing.
Fixed prices can be agreed for clearly defined projects. For flexible or agile projects, transparent billing based on effort is also possible.
