XML Formats
In addition to the image formats above, ReadSoft Online accepts XML input in these formats:

When you verify an XML invoice, an invoice image is generated from the XML to make verification easier. However, if you process ESXML or Fattura documents that contain embedded PDFs, the embedded PDF is used as the invoice image. Currently, ESXML and Fattura are the only XML formats that support embedded PDFs in this manner.
ReadSoft Online supports electronically signed XML invoices (P7M files); however, encrypted P7M files are not supported.
