AutoVue for JAVA Integrates with eMatrix V. 9
November 8th, 2000 - Cimmetry Systems Inc., leading developer of visual data
access and collaboration solutions announced today that their AutoVue for
JAVA
product is now fully integrated with MatrixOne's eMatrix solution. Now
eMatrix
users, which include some of the largest Fortune 500 companies, can make use
of
AutoVue's extensive format support and markup functionality in conjunction
with
their PDM system.
eMatrix is the backbone collaboration system for many enterprises, linking
employees, suppliers, partners and customers to each other as well as to the
corporate information they require. The high volume of exchanged information
comes in multiple formats, which often necessitates that all parties own
copies
of the authoring applications. AutoVue resolves this issue by providing
native
viewing capabilities for over 200 engineering, office and graphics formats,
all
in a single interface.
AutoVue for JAVA, Cimmetry's thin-client solution, allows users to view and
redline over 200 document formats using only a Web browser. Administration is
a
simple process, with all deployment and maintenance occurring solely on the
server side. This web-based solution is not a cut down version of Cimmetry's
AutoVue product, but contains the full feature set and functionality of the
standalone version. AutoVue for JAVA never transmits the original document
over
the Internet, only a rendered view of that document, safeguarding the
intellectual property of the organization.
>From within their Web browsers, eMatrix users can navigate through the
documents
and drawings located in the eMatrix repository. When a user chooses to view a
file, AutoVue for JAVA is launched. Users can then view and annotate these
documents and save their markup files in the repository. Markups are
automatically associated with the original document and added to the
workflow.
AutoVue's markup capabilities allow users to annotate documents with shapes,
text, hyperlinks, sticky-notes and embedded objects. AutoVue?s format support
includes both 2D and 3D formats such as AutoCAD, MicroStation, CADKEY,
HPGL/2,
CGM, TIFF, CALS, PDF, MS Office, Mechanical Desktop, Pro/ENGINEER,
SolidWorks,
SolidDesigner, Solid Edge & STEP.
Mark Bierschied, director of integrations for MatrixOne noted, "AutoVue's
powerful document and drawing based collaboration is an important complement
to
the business process collaboration of eMatrix. As companies work
cooperatively
with partners and customers, Cimmetry and MatrixOne will allow rich
collaboration among the people and processes that are the foundation of a
company's success."
"AutoVue for JAVA will provide eMatrix users with the means to effectively
exchange and collaborate based on critical document data, regardless of their
geographic location." said Brian Strasser, Business Development Manager at
Cimmetry Systems. "By simply using a Web browser, eMatrix users can view and
annotate the product data they need from the eMatrix vault, without ever
having
to leave the Matrix environment."
The combination of eMatrix and AutoVue provides a powerful tool in reducing
product development time and streamlining workflow management.
