ALBUQUERQUE, NM, September 15, 1994 _ Stone Design Corp.
and benchMark Developments, Inc. began shipping the TIFFany
II, Create 2.1 and 3D Reality 1.5 bundle today.
The bundle is only $999.00 for TIFFany II, Create 2.1 and

or 3D Reality can get the two applications for $799.00.
List price for all three applications is $1685.00.
Andrew Stone of Stone Design said, "We're really excited
about this deal. Not only can our users get our products at
a great price, but they can also get TIFFany, which is a
necessity for any serious artist or designer using
NEXTSTEP. With Create's Object drawing, Reality's 3D
rendering and Tiffany's sophisticated pixel manipulation,
this bundle provides the tools for a truly integrated
graphics suite. We're also thrilled about working with the
good people at benchMark and Caffeine because our apps work
together seamlessly."
Neil Green of benchMark Development was equally
enthusiastic, "benchMark Developments and Caffeine Software
are proud to offer quality software to the NEXTSTEP
community with one of the premiere and long term running
NEXTSTEP development houses, Stone Design. Use your
NEXTSTEP machine for the purpose it was so well designed
for: presentation and graphics."
Create 2.1 is a multipage high end drawing package. It is
offered in multiple-architecture binary form, making it
compatible with Motorola, Intel, and HP-based hardware
running NEXTSTEP version 3.1 or later. Create 2.1 can be
shared on a network comprised of mixed hardware; documents
created on any machine can be opened on any other machine
running the same version of Create.
3D Reality is the extensible 3D modeler front end for
Renderman on NEXTSTEP 3.1 or greater. 3D Reality 1.5 is
also offered in multiple-architecture binary form.
TIFFany II is a powerful image manipulation and editing

artist to work with a collection of filters and image
processing tools in a fully multi-threaded environment.
TIFFany II moves forward from the traditional tool to
action concept by allowing any action to be used by any
tool, extending the application's power and capabilities.
TIFFany includes support for the standard image file
formats a well as etended file format support through
NEXTSTEP's built in services.
