the company

OVERVIEW

GST Technology Ltd. is a world-wide provider of desktop publishing and graphics software Technology and is best known as the innovative developer of Timeworks Publisher. As GST licenses much of its software to many different publishers, the name "GST" is not well known despite millions of satisfied users. In total over 3 million DTP and 1.5 million Draw packages from GST have been sold.

GST ensures its position as one of the UK's leading DTP and Graphics software developers by continually researching its customers’ needs to improve its products. The company is therefore confident of its ability to adapt its products to suit publishers’ target customers and markets.

HISTORY

GST made several early in-roads into package software. Its earliest was 1st Word and 1st Word Plus for the Atari ST, which became the dominant word processing software in the Atari market. GST revolutionised the DTP market in 1987 with a release of its advanced, yet easy to use and affordable Timeworks Publish-it. This was upgraded regularly and became the dominant budget desktop publishing program for DOS. In 1991 GST released Designworks in the UK; a Windows drawing and illustration product with the same hallmark as Timeworks Publish-it: Advanced technology, ease of use and affordable pricing.

In early 1994, GST rebranded its DTP software for Windows as Pressworks« and Designworks 2. These were superseded in July 1996 by upgrades to Pressworks« 2 and Designworks 3, with a wealth of increased depth and functionality, trouble free installation under Windows 95, along with high levels of ease of use based around OLE 2 technology. These are probably the best value for money desktop publishing and graphics products on the market.

Pressworks« has been enhanced and developed over the last 18 months by GST Technology to include some very exciting new features, major improvements on functionality and additional content. It is now being sold under the greenstreet brand name as Publisher 3. Designworks 4 is also under development and is due for release in Spring 1999 as greenstreet Draw 4.

Dr Jeffrey Fenton founded the GST Group in Cambridgeshire, England in 1979 and is now Chairman of this ú million company. Educated at Cambridge University, his qualifications include an MA in Mathematics and a PhD in Computer Science. It is his unique foresight into software development that opened the door for ordinary people to enjoy the world of desktop publishing and graphic design, without the price tag.

"All GST products offer the same combination of ease of use, superb value for money and advanced technology, with the depth of features to allow users to achieve exactly what they require. GST will continue to support users of all its software world-wide."

"Thank you for your interest in GST Technology Limited."
