Includes Speed Improvements and Support for New Encrypted Zip Format
Aliso Viejo, CA -- September 26, 2006 -- Smith Micro Software, Inc.
(NASDAQ: SMSI) today announced the availability of StuffIt Standard
Edition 11.0. This Universal Binary release provides native support
for Intel based Macs, and features a number of improvements to its
core compression engine. These improvements deliver faster
compression and decompression speeds, especially evident on
dual-processor or dual-core Macs. StuffIt Standard Edition includes
our patent-pending JPEG compression technology which compresses files
by up to 30% without compromising image quality.
StuffIt Standard expands the Zip format support in the Mac OS X
Finder. It also supports the creation of encrypted Zip archives and
provides Mac users with the ability to open "strong encrypted"
Windows Zip archives that originated on a PC. StuffIt's improved Zip
compression technology permits users to create Zip archives that are
smaller than those created by the Finder, while retaining full
compatibility with all existing Zip applications on both Macs and
Windows-based computers.
