  236.  <p>Torque TRAFFIC, revolutionary cross-platform 'dashboard,' is now shipping!</p>
  237. <p>SAN FRANCISCO, September 1, 1998 - Torque Systems today announced the<br />
  238. availability of version 1.0 of Traffic, unique new graphic arts workflow<br />
  239. software that is the first to offer three key features:</p>
  240. <p>   * a visual display of the progress of all jobs in a graphic arts shop<br />
  241.    * a groupware discussion feature for comments about each job<br />
  242.    * platform independence, so any Mac, PC or UNIX systems can be used</p>
  243. <p>A beta version of Traffic was profiled at length in _The Seybold Report_<br />
  244. earlier this year (Volume 27, Number 14). Stephen Edwards, Editor,<br />
  245. describes Traffic as "a fascinating attempt to deal with a situation that<br />
  246. can be very difficult... which helps not only in moving jobs along their<br />
  247. path, but also in tracking deadlines and sending messages among workers who<br />
  248. need to keep abreast of progress."</p>
  249. <p>Traffic offers the software backbone for today's diverse creative and<br />
  250. production needs in prepress, display-house, ad agency and printing<br />
  251. environments. Traffic is built around the concept of stages, which the user<br />
  252. defines as identifiable processes within a job workflow. Up to dozens of<br />
  253. stages can be displayed onscreen as color-coded blocks containing lists of<br />
  254. jobs underway. The first release of the software supports three types of<br />
  255. stages - Automatic stages based on hot folders, Manual stages where jobs<br />
  256. are advanced by double-clicking, and Forms stages for automated order entry<br />
  257. and data input from FileMaker apps or industry-specific accounting<br />
  258. packages.</p>
  259. <p>The software includes unique Tracker and InBox features with key benefits<br />
  260. to the user. The Tracker is an onscreen panel where jobs of onging interest<br />
  261. to that user can be dragged, so that their progress and status is displayed<br />
  262. at all times. The InBox acts like a dedicated version of an email inbox,<br />
  263. displaying job-related comments sent directly to that user, but also cc:'s<br />
  264. of messages and status updates on any jobs in their Tracker. What Traffic<br />
  265. does not do is just as important. In particular, it does not try to replace<br />
  266. software for any of the steps in the workflows it oversees, such as<br />
  267. preflight, ripping, OPI, or order entry. Instead, its open architecture<br />
  268. lets TorqueTraffic monitor existing applications from a range of companies.<br />
  269. In its first release, Traffic can automatically monitor progress in any<br />
  270. application which supports "hot folder" file processing, and follow<br />
  271. operator-entered progress in other applications with a simple double click.</p>
  272. <p>Likewise, Traffic intentionally does not handle image management, searching<br />
  273. or catalogs; instead, it provides hot links to industry-leading database<br />
  274. packages for that purpose. While Traffic keeps a simple list of files and<br />
  275. comments associated with a job, option-clicking on a job name in Traffic<br />
  276. launches the user's choice of image database for thumbnail viewing of those<br />
  277. files. Torque has formed comarketing arrangements and technical liasons<br />
  278. with many industry- leading vendors, such as Binuscan, Canto, Color<br />
  279. Solutions, DK&A, Extensis, Markzware, Ultimate, and 4Sight. These<br />
  280. arrangements are all non-exclusive, and the company hopes to induce other<br />
  281. key vendors to offer support over time.</p>
  282. <p>Pricing and Availability<br />
  283. Traffic is already installed at several key beta sites; full product<br />
  284. shipments are expected in December. Traffic supports unlimited numbers of<br />
  285. open jobs, with NT or Silicon Graphics server licenses with two clients<br />
  286. priced at $2,995. Additional clients cost $200 each. All versions include<br />
  287. one year of telephone and web support.</p>
  288. <p>Company Overview<br />
  289. Torque Systems is in the business of providing workflow software and server<br />
  290. solutions for the graphic arts market. Founded in 1989, Torque's history is<br />
  291. one of continuous revenue growth, based on a consistent vision - server<br />
  292. technology for graphics. The company began by developing tools for building<br />
  293. client-server graphics applications. Customer feedback soon drew the<br />
  294. company into providing those applications ready to use. Torque products are<br />
  295. available directly from the company and through a small network of<br />
  296. affiliated dealers. For additional information on Traffic, contact Torque<br />
