SOFTWARE PUBLISHING CORPORATION INTRODUCES NEW TWO-YEAR SOFTWARE UPGRADE
PROGRAM 

Subscribe Program Qualifies Departmental Purchases at 50-Unit Level

Santa Clara, Calif., April 13, 1993 -- Software Publishing Corporation
today introduced its Subscribe Program, a two-year software upgrade
agreement for corporate users of graphics and database software products.
The Subscribe Program allows customers with a minimum of only 50 software
units --an industry-leading entry point-- to receive an upgrade to the
current version of Harvard Graphics DOS or Harvard Graphics for Windows or
Superbase, as well as all future releases of the specific product over a
two-year period. The cost of the Subscribe Program is $150 for Harvard
Graphics products, and $175 for Superbase. The program was introduced at
the 1993 FOSE trade show in Washington, D.C.

The Subscribe Program differentiates itself from similar long-term upgrade
programs by requiring an industry-low minimum qualification of only 50
units. Other companies require a minimum of 250 to 1000 units.
Additionally, the Subscribe Program allows upgrades from competitive
products.

"The Subscribe Program makes it easy to budget software purchases over a
two-year period," said Chris Randles, vice president of marketing for
Software Publishing Corporation. "The program also makes it easy to manage
upgrades, including transitions from DOS to Windows, and it simplifies the
reporting and tracking of software purchases. Additionally, our 50-unit
minimum qualification is the lowest in the industry."

Software Publishing Corporation (NASDAQ: SPCO) is an international supplier
of business productivity software for the IBM Personal Computer and
compatibles. The company currently develops and markets graphical software
solutions for accessing, analyzing and presenting information, including
the market-leading Harvard Graphics and Superbase product lines.
