Subject: txt2pdf 6.0
Date: 19 Sep 2002 15:50:49 GMT
Most of your documents are text files. Usually, your reports from legacy
applications, DBs, ERP applications and datawarehouse are textual.
txt2pdf allows you to take those old text files and turn them into PDF's
using only PERL, which means you don't even need to pass the data
through PostScript first.
You can run txt2pdf on any system that runs PERL, but it has been tested
and is verified to work on many operating systems.
etxt2pdf is the executable version of txt2pdf. It's been specially
compiled for those users who simply can't or don't want to run PERL on
their systems. It has all the functionality of the original perl
version, and is merely distributed in binary form for your convenience.
We currently have 5 executable versions: Windows, Linux, Solaris, AIX,
HP-UX, Mac OS X.
If you're interested in a binary for another operating system, such as
FreeBSD please let us know, and we'll send you one. With enough
requests, we'll also add one here permanently. Please note that the
Windows version comes with an extra tool known as Visual txt2pdf.
Here are some of the things that you can achieve with txt2pdf:
You can mark coloured (using PERL regular expressions) phrases in the
produced PDF files.
You can mark bold, italic and bold italic phrases in the produced
PDFfiles.
You can add page numbers on every page.
You can add text at the beginning and at the end of every file.
You can add a border to every page.
Internet specific phrases such as http://... ftp://...
mailto:...file:... ldap:... news:... will automatically be made into
clickable URL's.
You can create a link to a specific age within a PDF document by simply
adding http://...pdfdocument#pdfmark
Every word like MIME:... will automatically become a link that will
launch the correct application to open that file.
You can use background and foreground layers.
All predefined encodings (WinAnsiEncoding, MacRomanEncoding,
MacExpertEncoding, PDFDocEncoding) supported by the PDF format and the
Unix default are supported by txt2pdf.
It's possible to rerun txt2pdf infinitely (every configured second,
sleep feature) on a specific directory (and also it's recursive
directories) moving the produced PDF to a specific directory, and the
original text to a specific directory.
txt2pdf supports STDIN and STDOUT.
Support for Japanese fonts (HeiseiMin-W3-90ms-RKSJ-H and
HeiseiKakuGo-W5-90ms-RKSJ-H) and Japanese paper formats (JISB4 and
JISB5).
EPD 1.0 support. You can use EPD inside the background layer.
A Personal Edition License is ONLY $39.
SANFACE Software is going to give you a free license for every good idea
or good modify to txt2pdf.
txt2pdf is shareware
The txt2pdf source code is our company core business.
We trust you.
You can test text2pdf and modify it.
You can't use a modify version of txt2pdf for production purpose. You
can't resell txt2pdf or a modify version of it without SANFACE Software
authorization.
You can't copy part of it to include in your source without SANFACE
Software authorization.
What's new in this version
Support for HeiseiMin-W3-90ms-RKSJ-H and HeiseiKakuGo-W5-90ms-RKSJ-H
Japanese fonts
Support for JISB4 and JISB5 Japanese paper formats.
You can select in txt2pdf.cfg one of the 16 supported fonts.
You can use one of the 16 supported fonts with fontmark.
HTML 4.01 validated documentation.
Test txt2pdf 6.0!
You can find it at http://www.sanface.com/txt2pdf.html

Turku, Finland – September 13, 2002. Probatus Technologies, a provider of
information management and systems integration solutions, has released
Probatus Spectra(TM) Linux 1.2, the company's newest operating environment
designed for robust data processing.

However, Spectra Linux 1.2 offers the Linux community more than just a
system update. The new version of the leading Linux distribution enhances
the base operating environment with an excellent set of standards compliant
solutions provided by the pioneering uDevix Alliance.
Probatus Spectra(TM) Linux 1.2 introduces new value-added collections of
resources for professional and home use. Probatus Spectra(TM) uDevix 1.0 and

products, and Probatus Spectra(TM) uDoctrix 1.0 provides a fully indexed
knowledge base of essential Linux documentation in a transparently
compressed CD-ROM format. The uDoctrix knowledge base can be used directly
from the CD, or it can be installed as a Web server add-on for access with
any browser on any operating system.
The Linux solutions provided exclusively on Probatus Spectra(TM) uDevix and
Probatus Spectra(TM) uOffix have been made available by the vendors taking
part in the uDevix Alliance. Database management and data migration; code
debugging and optimization; PDF creation and management; the products on

software applications that the base Spectra Linux distribution itself
contains, the users will be able to benefit from a Linux environment that
extends to all imaginable purposes.
"Probatus Spectra(TM) Linux 1.2 is a real treasure for anyone considering
Linux for serious business. It contains the most comprehensive knowledge

Subject: PROBATUS TECHNOLOGIES ANNOUNCES UDEVIX ALLIANCE FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE GLOBAL LINUX COMMUNITY
Date: 19 Sep 2002 15:51:19 GMT
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
PROBATUS TECHNOLOGIES ANNOUNCES UDEVIX ALLIANCE FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE
GLOBAL LINUX COMMUNITY
============================================================================
=================
Turku, Finland - September 17, 2002. Leading Linux vendor Probatus
Technologies announced today its global uDevix Alliance. This unprecedented
partnership program invites Linux software providers into a joint industry
effort for the benefit of the Linux community.
Progression in the field of computing and information technology does not
take place unless there are companies with visions of how things could and
should be. The new uDevix Alliance is the realization of a strong vision
concerning a united Linux software industry.
"As a company developing a professional Linux operating environment, we
realized there was a need for someone to bring together the excellent
software products that truly enable the developers to use Linux for serious
business," said Raimo Koski, a well-acknowledged Linux developer, author and
researcher at Probatus Technologies. "Instead of letting the developers to
laboriously search for suitable software, we are now able to present them
with an outstanding set of standards compliant solutions in a certified,
production-ready package. And consequently, developers will be better
equipped to create usable products for the markets. All in all, the uDevix
Alliance gives a unique chance for the Linux community to raise awareness
concerning the suitability of Linux for productive work and to provide the
markets with better Linux solutions."
Currently, there are over twenty companies in the uDevix Alliance. Solid
Information Technology (see http://www.solidtech.com/aboutus/pr_78.html),
Runtime Revolution (see http://www.runrev.com/company/pressreleases/9.html),
SoftIntegration, Inc., No Magic, Inc., and Lifix Systems have already
announced their support for this joint industry effort. In addition, a
pioneering selection of state-of-the-art Linux software from the vendors who
have joined the alliance is included in Probatus Spectra(TM) Linux 1.2, the
newest version of Probatus’ operating environment designed for robust data
processing.
The Probatus Spectra(TM) uDevix and Probatus Spectra(TM) uOffix disks
provided in the Spectra Linux 1.2 distribution offer valuable resources to
the developers around the world. Database management and data migration
utilities, multi-platform development applications, code debugging and
optimization software, PDF creation and management tools, and several office
suites are among the included products.
The Certification Group at Probatus tests each included software product to
be compatible with the Spectra Linux environment. "The Certified for
Probatus Spectra(TM) Linux approval gives these products an added mark of
reliability as the end-users can be certain that the development tool and
the underlying platform are compatible with each other," Mr. Koski
continued.
"By uniting the world’s leading software vendors in such an exceptional way,
we can really ensure the next phase of professional computing. In effect,
what we are able to provide the global Linux community with is a most
powerful set of certified development and productivity tools of the next
generation," said Esa Tervo, Chief Technology Officer of Probatus
Technologies. "The strong foundation that the uDevix Alliance already forms
should awaken the interest of the whole enterprise: the executive level, the
developers, and the software retailers. We are happy to welcome all
organizations interested in joining this effort from which the whole Linux
community can benefit."
More information about the uDevix Alliance can be requested by contacting
partners@probatus.com. Information about the availability of Probatus
Spectra(TM) Linux 1.2 can be obtained from sales@probatus.com.
