SmartSoft Announces The Release Of CollagistPro Version 1.0

Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, March 17, 1995 - SmartSoft has
announced the availability of a major update to their best selling
utility Collagist. CollagistPro is an electronic pasteboard. With
it you can join several files together into a single PostScript
document that you can email, fax or print with ease.

"This release represents a major rewrite of the software. It adds
several new features, and improves existing ones. This release
provides more stability and enhances the performance of the product.
We made so many enhancements to the software, that when we were
done it became obvious that we needed to upgrade the product name
as well. Because of this, we changed the name from Collagist to
CollagistPro" said Allen Washatko, Marketing Director of SmartSoft,
Inc.

"Many of the improvements were suggestions offered by our customers.
We basically did everything that our users asked for, further
demonstrating our commitment to the NEXTSTEP market and our ability
to respond to our user's needs" Washatko added.

The major benefits include:

*       Works with all standard NEXTSTEP file formats, EPS, PS,
TIFF, FAX, RTF, RTFD, plain text (ASCII), and any other file type
that can be converted to one of the above via a Filter Service.

*       It is filter services aware. The app supports any third-party
file format that can be converted via a Filter Service to any of
the standard types. This feature will depend on the software
installed in your system.

*       Full Page Layout control of each document. You can specify
to image any file N-Up, and give special page and binding margins
on a per file basis or to the entire CollagistPro job.

*       You can add Page Numbers on a per file(s) or to the entire
Collage. You can choose from various number formats. You can specify
the location on the page. and you have Font and size control of
the page number.

*       You can now save CollagistPro documents. Documents you drag
into a Collage document can be referenced by file system links or
copied into the document wrapper. With links your CollagistPro
document refers to original file, making the lastest version of
your document available to your Collage.

*       You are now able to preview and print documents directly
from CollagistPro. The Preview helps you see how some non-standard
file formats have been translated by Filter Services. You can also
use it to read a group of related documents from a single app.

*       You can use CollagistPro to organize documents created from
various files.

*       CollagistPro offers an API (Application Programmer's
Interface) so that you can incorporate the power of CollagistPro
into your own mission critical applications. The API provides
powerful features for Emailing, Faxing and Printing of multiple
documents.

CollagistPro requires NEXTSTEP 3.0 or better and it is available
in multiple-architecture binary form. MAB or fat binary software
runs on Motorola-based NeXT computers, Intel, and HP PA-RISC based
systems.

CollagistPro is available directly from SmartSoft and a demo version
will eventually be found at the ftp site ftp.cs.orst.edu.
