Microsoft Corporation on Thursday introduced the latest member of the Office
family, Microsoft Vizact 2000, which allows users to create dynamic
documents for the Web. Vizact 2000 frees users from needing to understand
complicated Web technologies while providing a user interface that will be
immediately familiar to any Office user.
"People and companies want a solution to information overload, a way to
create documents that cut through the sea of information and get others to
pay attention to their messages and remember their ideas," said Karl Jacob,
product unit manager of Microsoft's Document Activation Group. "Vizact helps
solve this problem by giving Office users the ability to create documents
that harness the dynamic nature of the Web, without having to be Web authors
or programmers."
Vizact 2000 introduces a number of exciting features such as interactive
bullets, table highlighting, auto motion of page elements, and a visual
timeline which allows users to choreograph dynamic elements easily.
