New! ColrTrax Version 1.3 Prints STUNNING 360-dpi Device-Resolution
Images!

CHICAGO - January 1, 1993 - Blackhawk Data Corporation is now shipping
Version 1.3 of its ColrTrax Screen Print, which enables popular software
packages to generate presentation-quality color hardcopy images; this
includes images produced with paint and illustration software, as well as
charts and graphs generated by presentation packages or spreadsheet
programs. ColrTrax also works with databases, allowing easy printouts of
screens that combine images or photographs and text, such as those created
by Blackhawk's own Database Graphics Toolkit ("dGT").

ColrTrax is among the first products to fully utilize IBM/Lexmark's new
360-dpi PS 4079 color PostScript printer -- just introduced in
mid-November 1992, at the Fall Comdex show!

ColrTrax faithfully reproduces any screen, from 40x25 text mode up to
1024x768x256-color graphics mode. Like Blackhawk's other products,
ColrTrax automatically configures itself to the correct video mode and
adapter. The software is written in hand-tailored assembler so it can
print a small image in just a few seconds - see "Performance", below.

ColrTrax's crystal-clear images are the result of a powerful software
technique, called "error-diffusion filtering", which ensures maximum
accuracy with virtually no distortion. The output is "gamma-adjusted"
meaning that The printer's output color levels are matched to a specified
compensation curve. In Version 1.3 this curve can be set by the user!

ColrTrax's greatest strength is its flexibility - users can control the
image's position on the page and select any of four output sizes, in
either portrait or landscape mode. ColrTrax can run as a hot-key TSR or be
called by other programs. Additional features let the user customize
output by specifying gamma response curve, individual hue, contrast,
saturation, brightness, printer address, printer type, and hot-key
identity, yielding the highest-quality output possible on any printer!

ColrTrax can be installed and ready to run in just five minutes!

ColrTrax loads with a one-word command and can be activated by a single
keystroke!

Network-ready ColrTrax Unlimited is priced at just $199, and can be copied
up to 1,000 times, royalty-free; ColrTrax Single-User is just $99. Both
are available immediately from Blackhawk dealers and distributors all over
the world.

An interactive demo file, called CLRTRX.ZIP, is available on CompuServe (GO
DBADVISOR, Library 4, "Windows and Graphics"), and other forums and
bulletin boards. The demo program, like ColrTrax itself, treats the screen
much like a television picture - it provides a sample image which users
can modify as to hue, brightness, contrast, saturation, and gamma curve,
and then print, in any of four sizes.
