Crawford Technologies Introduces
PDF and PostScript to Xerox Metacode Transform

Toronto, Ontario, March 1, 2004 - Crawford Technologies Inc. today introduced their newest printing solution, PRO PS to Metacode Version 2 which converts PostScript and PDF files to Xerox Metacode for printing on Xerox LPS printers. PRO PS to Metacode allows a single printer to be used for printing PostScript and LCDS/Metacode output. The product handles all standard PostScript capabilities and dynamically converts print resources, as needed.

PRO PS to Metacode Version 2 provides several major improvements including support for PostScript Level 2 and 3, support for conversions of PDF files and support for Unix and Windows platforms. In addition, one of the most exciting new features allows text from the PostScript and PDF files to be placed in the metacode file as text. This contrasts with other products in the market that simply RIP the entire document, resulting in very large metacode files. Metacode files created by PRO PS to Metacode are smaller and more efficient.

Based on the JAWS PostScript interpreter from Global Graphics Software Inc., PRO PS to Metacode Version 2 offers unsurpassed levels of performance, document fidelity and compatibility with PostScript and PDF objects.

"With PRO PS to Metacode Version 2, organizations can now utilize high speed legacy laser printers to efficiently print new applications without the need for specialized hardware components like shared disk interfaces, greatly improving flexibility and reducing costs" stated Ernie Crawford, President of Crawford Technologies Inc.
