Principia Products Announces New Version of Remark Office OMR

Forms Processing Software Targets Marketing, Research, and Training
Markets; New version greatly expands the data input capabilities for
complex forms.

West Chester, PA. (June 28, 1994) - Principia Products, a leading developer
of optical mark reading software, today announced the release of a new
version of Remark Office OMR for Windows.

Remark Office OMR remains a revolutionary plain-paper optical mark reading
program that is widely used for automatically processing educational
tests, surveys and office forms.

Remark allows users to create forms using any word processor or survey
design package and to duplicate them in-house on a laser printer or
photocopier. Forms do not need to be printed in special "drop-out" colors,
or to include special registration marks, and can be filled in with any
pencil or pen. Remark works with a common desktop scanner to scan in and
perform the data entry on these plain-paper forms. The data from the forms
can be exported to a file compatible with any spreadsheet, database, or
statistical package, or can be further analyzed by running Remark's
built-in test grading or survey tabulating functions.

Version 2.0 expands the capabilities of Remark by adding features to file
images, process double sided forms, and verify and correct errors. The new
version also includes a new spreadsheet style user interface, improved
recognition on degraded images, and supports a larger selection of output
formats. Version 2.0 includes support for Pixel Translation's ISIS scanner
protocol which allows Remark to support high speed scanners including
models from Fujitsu, Ricoh and Bell & Howell. Remark now can control over
125 different scanners including all popular makes and models.

The new image filing feature allows users to create image databases by
saving the scanned images to a directory on their hard drive. Similarly,
parts of images such as a signature on a ballot, can also be stored for
future use.

The new stop & correct function allows a data entry operator to perform
on-line error correction while forms are being scanned. Using this same
function, any handwritten areas on the form, such as a name or address, or
a comments section on a survey, can be data entered by the operator and
inserted directly into the output file. If desired, these data entry and
verification functions can also be performed as a post scanning process.

Remark Office OMR version 2.0 is available immediately. The list price is
$299.95, current users may upgrade for $99. Additional information may be
