Microsoft Word automated output


to printer, PDF and other formats

Zevrix, Solutions has released WordOutput 1.0, its new software for automating output of multiple Microsoft Word documents to printer, PDF and other formats on Mac OS X.

WordOutput simplifies the output from Microsoft Word and saves users valuable production time and costs by eliminating the hassle to open and print each document manually. Users only need to select the files they wish to output and adjust the settings, and WordOutput will do the rest automatically. And because WordOutput can run in the background, it allows users to keep working with other programs during processing thus using their time even more efficiently.

The main WordOutput features and benefits include:
- Automate output from Word without the need to open each document manually.
- Automate output to PDF with virtual printers such as Adobe PDF, CUPS-PDF and others.
- E-mail, fax, and output multiple Word documents to other formats using appropriate virtual printers.
- Use the same familiar settings from Word's Print dialog.
- Easily add files from the system dialog or by drag-and-drop from Finder.

WordOutput also provides detailed status report during the processing and features an interactive file list with the options to open files in Word and reveal them in Finder.

Zevrix Solutions will also release similar software to automate output from other Microsoft Office programs - Excel and PowerPoint. ExcelOutput and PowerPointOutput are planned to be released in mid-October and November 2007 respectively.
