Extensis Ships PhotoNavigator for Adobe Photoshop as Freeware

Leading supplier of application-enhancement software adds powerful
functionality to Adobe Photoshop at no cost to users

PORTLAND, OREGON, MAY 5, 1996: Extensis Corporation, a leading provider of
add-on software, such as QX-Tools for QuarkXPress and Intellihance for
Photoshop, today announced it began shipping PhotoNavigator. Further
strengthening its position as a market leader, and as a prelude to a
unique set of forthcoming Extensis productivity tools for Adobe Photoshop,
PhotoNavigator will ship as freeware. The Photoshop plug-in enables users
to realize enormous productivity gains by quickly and accurately
navigating their way around images.

PhotoNavigator operates by creating a small, resizable floating palette
within Photoshop, that contains a thumbnail representation of an entire
image. The palette allows users to efficiently point, drag and click
around the image with absolute control and without having to wait for the
screen to continuously redraw. For example, users can zoom in on an image,
make changes or edits and then simply click on the PhotoNavigator palette
to instantly and accurately move to a different section of the image while
maintaining the same zoom ratio. "PhotoNavigator demonstrates Extensis'
ongoing commitment to address the daily needs of users, within the
confines of their parent applications, by providing significant
time-savings and cutting- edge functionality" says Craig Barnes, President
of Extensis. PhotoNavigator is free to all users. The plug-in will be
available to download from Extensis' home page at: http://www.extensis.com
on the World Wide Web and from appropriate locations on major online
services, such as America Online and CompuServe.

PHOTONAVIGATOR REVOLUTIONIZES IMAGE NAVIGATION WITHIN PHOTOSHOP

Advanced navigational capabilities have long been sought by industry savvy
Photoshop users. Extensis has answered the call with PhotoNavigator.
"Egad! You brought the 'viewer' to Photoshop," exclaimed Dan Feather, Vice
President of Ellisor Design, "This is like a dream come true.
PhotoNavigator will turn misery into frolic. Kudos for a well-conceived
tool!" PhotoNavigator efficiently maximizes previously laborious,
time-consuming efforts to navigate, view and edit images. "For large
images PhotoNavigator rules!" stated Marcus Conge of Digital Manipulation.
"It is best for moving around larger images without having to skate the
image with the hand tool or scroll continuously."
