WINDOWS-OPTIMIZED DOCUMENT DISPLAY SYSTEM ANNOUNCED BY PIXELINK
New Gray Scale System Displays Images At 240 dpi

WASHINGTON, DC, November 9, 1992--The first PC-based display system
designed to provide the optimum image quality for both scanned images and
the Microsoft Windows desktop was demonstrated here at the Federal Imaging
Show by Pixelink Corporation. Called the 240DS, it is the first system to
solve the paradox of how to display ultra-high resolution images and to
simultaneously display standard Windows icons and fonts at a normal,
usable size.

The increasing popularity of Microsoft Windows has caused a major display
problem within the document imaging industry. While users prefer the
highest possible on-screen resolution in order to see small details,
Windows icons and fonts shrink to a difficult to use size as the
resolution increases. The Pixelink 240DS solves this problem by providing
the best of both worlds image resolutions of 240 dpi to view even 4 point
type, and the simultaneous display of the Windows desktop at its optimum
resolution, 120 dpi.

The Pixelink 240DS consists of a dual page, gray scale monitor; a PC-bus,
Windows-optimized controller; Windows drivers; connector cables and
documentation. The complete system price is $3495.00 and shipments will
begin in December.

A key feature of the 240DS display controller is Equivalent Resolution
Technology (ERT), a patented process of Document Technologies, Inc. (DTI)
which enables the simultaneous 120/240 resolution display. The process
starts by taking a 200, 300 or 400 dpi scanned image and rendering it to a
display bitmap that is comfortable for Windows. The ERT code also
instructs the system to split certain pixels in two, thereby doubling the
horizontal resolution. An on-board driver runs off-the-shelf Windows
applications at 120 dpi. Developers can quickly and easily enable the ERT
(240 dpi) functionality for existing applications utilizing either the
stretchBLT function within Microsoft Windows or by using a Dynamic Link
Library (DLL) from DTI.

"The 240DS means that document imaging users no longer need to compromise
on image quality or on Windows convenience," commented Bill Ingraham,
Marketing Director of Pixelink. "One look at the screen tells them that
their work is about to become a lot easier," he added.

Additional system specifications include a PC-compatible character
interface enabling primary DOS display; the ability to display over 4
million pixels at 16 gray levels; a display designed to model the aspect
ratio of two paper pages, thereby delivering larger on-screen images; and
a paper white display operating at 72Hz refresh rate.
