- AUTOCAD
-
- AutoCAD(R) is the most widely used, most broadly supported, and
- most frequently taught design software in the world. Every
- significant make and model of desktop computer, workstation, and
- input/output device is supported by AutoCAD. The program's open
- architecture, embedded high level programming language, and
- provisions for writing customized drivers for peripheral devices
- make it uniquely flexible and versatile as a graphics standard for
- nearly every discipline.

- DBASE IV
-
- dBASE IV(R) provides both beginning and advanced PC users with a
- complete system to effectively manage all types of data.
- Completely redesigned, and incorporating a vast array of new
- features and enhancements, dBASE IV sets the new standard in
- database management for personal computer users. For example, you
- can gain access to all the functions through its new task-oriented
- Control Center. Use the Query by Example to simplify searches.
- The new version handles up to one billion records per file, with
- up to 99 files open simultaneously, and it can save up to 47
- indexes in a single file.
-
- dBASE IV: Tested on an 8 MHz 80286-based system with an Intel
- 80287-6 Math CoProcessor. The test employed the square root
- function.

- FREEDOM OF PRESS
-
- It's here, the first software that lets you print PostScript(R)
- language files on a non-PostScript printer, both black & white and
- color. As a robust PostScript language compatible interpreter,
- Freedom of Press(R) just cut the cost of printing color by as much
- as 85%. Freedom of Press gives you extremely high quality images
- from the most popular non-PostScript printers, such as HP Laserjet
- and compatibles, ink jet, dot matrix, color thermal printers, and
- now even film recorders. By supporting high resolution color
- recorders, Freedom of Press is the only product that lets you make
- PostScript language files into 24-bit color slides.
-
- Freedom of Press: Tested on a 12 MHz 80286-based computer with
- Intel 80287-8 Math CoProcessor connected to a Hewlett-Packard
- Laserjet Printer using PostScript emulation. The test employed
- the computer's memory to interpret the PostScript code and make a
- customized bit map for the printer.
