What are the Cortado Premium Services?
With the Cortado Premium Services users with or without a Cortado mailbox can easily and in a straightforward way access documents from e. g. e-mail attachments. Thus you can view received documents at any time and send them directly from your handheld to a printer, a fax machine or even a notebook monitor – without having to download the original document. For the platforms Windows Mobile 5.0 and Nokia, Cortado also offers the functions Print and Fax for documents saved locally on the handheld. And with the respective handheld, print data can be sent both via Bluetooth and the infrared interface (IrDA).
Create faxes on the road with the Short Fax function and send them from anywhere in the world. And all that using professional layouts. With Windows Mobile 5.0 devices and Nokia E- and N-Series models you can even add your scanned signature to your faxes.

Why does the Cortado (Content Beamer) application require registering to use the Cortado Premium Services when first starting it?
The initial registration when opening the Cortado (Content Beamer) Client to use the Cortado Premium Services is necessary to register your mobile device with Cortado and use the Premium Services. During this initial registration process, a connection to the Cortado servers is established, a registration PIN generated and assigned to the IMEI of your mobile device. Only thus can the usage of the Premium Services with your mobile device be guaranteed.

Why can I only test and use the Premium Service “View” with a Cortado mailbox?
With the Cortado Premium Service “View”, a server module generates so-called Remote Documents from any received e-mail attachment and adds them to the respective e-mail message automatically. Remote Documents are optimized preview documents of especially small data size. This process is currently only available for e-mails that are received via the Cortado Exchange servers, i. e. for messages arriving in a Cortado mailbox. Once an e-mail with an attachment is thus received on a mobile device, the user can then use the much smaller file for viewing the attachment, before downloading the original document or print or fax it.
Note: The “View” option is also available when testing or using the Premium Service without a Cortado mailbox. Please keep in mind though, that in this case significantly higher data traffic is caused, because the original attachment will first be downloaded and then uploaded again to generate the Remote Document, i. e. the preview.
By the way, you can set up a Cortado Standard mailbox package here and use it immediately and for free during the first 30 days!
