"Up until now, Pocket PC users have not had the ability to seamlessly
create and edit Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files without losing
formatting or content, nor have they had access to an office suite
that provides feature-for-feature compatibility with Microsoft Office.
SoftMaker Office 2008 for Pocket PCs is changing all of that,"
according to Martin Kotulla, CEO of SoftMaker Software GmbH.
SoftMaker Office 2008 for Pocket PCs ships with three applications
that MS Office users will find totally familiar and 100% compatible
with their existing office documents:
TextMaker 2008 is the only full-featured word processor for Pocket
PCs - reliable, user-friendly, and able to read and write all Microsoft
Word files with the highest fidelity. TextMaker does everything on
Pocket PCs that Microsoft Word does on Windows PCs.
PlanMaker 2008 is a fully Excel-compatible spreadsheet that enables
users to create sophisticated and intricate worksheets without any
need for Microsoft Excel.
PlanMaker 2008 is the only spreadsheet for the Pocket PC platform that
provides the vast richness of features known from Excel and that reads
and writes all Excel worksheets seamlessly. PlanMaker 2008 supports
Excel-compatible charts, AutoShapes, drawings, and more.
SoftMaker Presentations 2008 is the 100% compatible Microsoft
PowerPoint replacement with all of the same features and benefits.
This is the only presentation program for the Pocket PC that is able
to edit PowerPoint files without conversion or quality loss.
SoftMaker Presentations 2008 users have access to the complete
functionality of a desktop presentations program, enabling them to
create, edit, and manage slides, insert and edit drawings, graphics,
tables, or text frames, apply all animations of PowerPoint to
objects, etc. The application comes with an assortment of ready-made
templates, or the user can create their own with full access to slide
masters, placeholders, color schemes, and all the other features found
in PowerPoint.
All of the applications in SoftMaker Office 2008 for Pocket PCs
support printing, either directly or with the help of Jetcet Print
from Westtek, LLC. In addition, all of the applications enable the
user to directly create PDF (Adobe Acrobat) files directly on the
Pocket PC.
