ELYSIA ANNOUNCES SUPPORT FOR THE FUJITSU SCANPARTNER 10 IN ITS
SCANKIT OBJECTWARE

Paris, France, SEPTEMBER 7, 1993 -- Elysia is pleased to announce
support for the Fujitsu ScanPartner10 in its ScanKit ObjectWare
package.  The Fujitsu ScanPartner10 is a 10 page per minute, A4
scsi scanner which can handle up to 256 gray levels with
resolutions of up to 300 dots per inch.  The ScanPartner
incorporates a 50 sheet automatic document feeder.  The ScanKit
also currently supports the Ricoh RS632 (A4) and the Fujitsu M3096
(A3) scanners.

Elysia wrote the ScanKit to allow developers to easily access image
scanners from their NEXTSTEP custom application.  Our customers
have successfully integrated the ScanKit in their custom
application code in a matter of minutes.  A scan daemon drives
scanner hardware in a background processes leaving the application
free for other tasks.  A ScanStylePanel provides for modifying
scanner settings and assigning them a name.  The ScanPanel allows
the user to start a scan job, which may later be paused, resumed or
aborted.  Scanned image data is sent to the application as an
NXImage object.  Sound signals various conditions, such as an empty
paper tray.

The ScanKit is currently shipping for NEXTSTEP/Motorola and will
be available for NEXTSTEP For Intel Processors by the end of the
year.  ScanKit Developer comes with sample code, on-line developer
documentation, and everything you need to build and develop your
ScanKit-based application including all currently supported scanner
drivers.  A demo version of the ScanKit is available upon request.

The ScanKit Developer license is priced at $995.  ScanKit Run-Time
licenses for the Ricoh RS632 and the Fujitsu ScanPartner10 are
priced at $349.  The ScanKit Run-Time license for the Fujitsu M3096
scanner is priced at $439.  VISA or Mastercard accepted.

of automatic forms management software for NEXTSTEP.
