Address Data Interchange Specification (ADIS) 01-1

IDEAlliance ADIS version 01-1 was published in April 2001. This was the result of a rigorous process that has involved major printers, postal software suppliers, and leading direct marketing service bureaus, along with the USPS. The ADIS committee became the IDEAlliance ADIS Working Group in September 2002, assuring that ADIS will remain royalty-free. Based on results of prototype testing, input from the committee and the need to maintain compatibility with the upcoming UPU standard, the next version of ADIS is now under development.

The ADIS 01-1 specification, including the database file formats, the XML DTD, sample XML data, and a narrative description, can be downloaded below.
