PRESS INFORMATION
The new solution for PDF forms
Save filled out PDF forms in Acrobat Reader.
You cannot save form field values in Acrobat Reader. That is a weakness if
you want to fill in forms and edit form field content later again. When you
close the program all your data is lost. With pdf-FormServer 3.3 by

away.Just one click and all form field data will be saved locally. Now this
solution is also available for Reader 7.
pdf-FormServer can be used locally on every desktop and now also as an

to provide every client with a save capability within the PDF form.
That way you keep your PDF forms unchangeable but enable all users to also
save their input. Of course they can open the forms again to edit and save
later.

Sophie e-book Reader
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Rivertext.com is pleased to announce that the release of the new Mac OS
10.4 (Tiger) compatible version of the free Sophie e-book reader includes
an expedition into the Kafkaesque. The latest e-book, a collection of five
extraordinary stories by Franz Kafka and his precursors, begins with a look
at the deeper meaning of the term 'Kafkaesque.' The preface to the Sophie
e-book released earlier this year, H.G. Wells' "The War of the Worlds,"
offers a more provocative and timely interpretation of the original science
fiction classic than Steven Spielberg's new blockbuster film starring Tom
Cruise. All the Sophie e-books begin with an original and thought-provoking
preface.
These e-books have many useful features as well as at least one
delightfully useless feature. Two of the e-books, "JFK Witness" and
Thoreau's "Walden" include guided tours created with the Sophie notebook
tool. This tool allows readers to create and share with others their own
