Abstract: A method includes creating in a first computer arrangement a printer file for a digital document containing information data to be transferred, the digital document having been generated in a first application program, wherein said printer file is internally generated in an operating system in response to a print command; creating in said first computer arrangement a transfer file which comprises said printer file and a definition file defining a one-to-one relation between a set of information data items contained in said printer file and a set of labels in said definition file so that each information data item is associated to a label; and sending said transfer file from the first computer arrangement to a second computer arrangement. Additional methods and systems are also presented.

Abstract: A method is provided for communicating information data between a first application program running on a first computer arrangement (10) and a second application program running on a second computer arrangement (20). The method involves creating, in the first computer arrangement, a transfer file which has a printer file for a digital document containing the information data to be transferred and a definition file defining a relation between a set of information data items contained in the printer file and a set of labels so that each information data item is associated to a label, sending the transfer file from the first computer arrangement to the second computer arrangement and, at the second computer arrangement by way of the definition file, obtaining the information data items contained in the printer file contained in the transfer file for enabling input of the information data items to the second application program.
