PALO ALTO, CA, USA October 27, 1992 - Today RightBrain Software began
shipping PasteUp, the first page layout program completely built from
the ground up with object oriented technology and Display Postscript.

PasteUp is a full-featured design and layout package providing
sophisticated text-handling, drawing tools, and layout features.
PasteUp supports the drag-and-drop metaphor for colors, imported
files, graphic styles, and text styles. Display PostScript allows page
editing at output resolution and provides on screen previews of color
separated film. PasteUp has built-in spell checking and hyphenation in
9 languages, full text runaround, left and right master pages, page
numbering, search and replace for colors as well as text, arbitrary
rotation and skewing of all objects including text, grouping, locking,
align and distribute, and a host of other features. PasteUp is
intended for flexible page design and documents in the 1-to-100-page
range, although its drawing tools, word-processing features, and ease
of use make it appropriate for all short document needs.

"PasteUp 1.0 has all the features you'd expect of an
industrial-strength publishing application, but is much faster and
easier to use," said Glenn Reid, president and founder of RightBrain
Software. "We've also added some sophisticated features like automatic
drop shadows for any object, a thumbnail page navigator, an arrowhead
editor that lets you customize the shapes of arrowheads, and
copy/paste of graphic attributes."

PasteUp also has automatic "smart punctuation" that will replace
straight quotes with typographic quotes, double hyphens with emdashes,
insert fi and fl ligatures, and even transpose the period inside
double quotes at the end of a quotation. Smart punctuation works with
text import as well as during typing, which greatly simplifies the
process of importing text from other sources without having to search
and replace all the quotes and ligatures.

PasteUp has a suggested retail price of $795 and is available through
NeXT dealers, NeXT international distributors and NeXTconnection.
