Nuernberg, Germany -- April 5, 2004 -- PlanMaker 2004, the new
Microsoft Excel-compatible spreadsheet for multiple operating
systems, is nearing completion: The version for Pocket PCs is
now in public beta testing.
Anyone can download the Pocket PC version of PlanMaker, in
addition to the Windows and the Handheld PC betas that have
been available for several weeks, from the manufacturer's web
site at
www.softmaker.com.
The remaining version, PlanMaker for Linux, will follow in about
two weeks.
PlanMaker offers the feature set and ease-of-use of a modern
high-end spreadsheet application - not only under Windows, but
also on Pocket PCs, Windows CE-based Handheld PCs, and Linux.
This means that PlanMaker is the only spreadsheet worldwide
that is available for four different popular operating systems
and offers the same feature set on all of them.
One of the major design goals in PlanMaker's development was
the seamless conversion of Microsoft Excel files. PlanMaker
reads and writes any file from Microsoft Excel 5.0, 95, 97,
2000, Excel XP, and Excel 2003, and renders all of them
faithfully.
PlanMaker not only offers a vast collection of more than 320
calculation functions - including support for complex numbers,
statistics, financial maths, and data analysis - but also enables
the user to create attractive presentations by providing a
fully Excel-compatible AutoShapes drawing engine (on all platforms,
even Linux and Pocket PCs!) and a fully Microsoft Excel-compatible
charting module that offers 70 different chart types in 2D and 3D
- color gradients, fill patterns, and trend lines included.
PlanMaker carries a suggested retail price of US$49.95 or EUR 49.95
and will be available through resellers and directly from SoftMaker.
