BEAVERTON, Ore./PARK CITY, Utah--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 7, 1998-- Adaptive Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ:ADSO) and FormWare Corporation today announced an agreement whereby Adaptive Solutions will integrate and private-label portions of FormWare's forms processing product line into Adaptive's upcoming EntryLink(tm) family of Computer Aided Data Entry (CADE) products. ÿÿÿ EntryLink systems will begin shipping in June 1998 and will be demonstrated in Eastman Kodak's booth (No.201) at the AIIM show, which runs May 11-15 in Anaheim, CA. ÿÿÿ The new EntryLink product line, which will be formally announced at AIIM, extends the value of Kodak scanners and microimagers by making them highly productive data entry peripherals for converting paper forms to useful on-line data. Delivered as complete turnkey data entry solutions, EntryLink will provide current Kodak customers with a scalable array of pre-integrated hardware and data entry software backed by on-site service from Kodak. FormWare's award winning key from image, forms processing and workflow software will be combined with Adaptive's data validation and recognition solutions including the commercialization of patented ICR technology (Intelligent Character Recognition) purchased from Kodak last fall and OCR products (Optical Character Recognition) from the company's recent acquisition of Mimetics, S.A. ÿÿÿ Dan Meub, President and CEO of Adaptive Solutions, stated, "It's our intention to make the EntryLink family the most comprehensive suite of data entry products available by providing all of the functionality and services the customer will need, and by incorporating only the highest-quality components. FormWare represents the best of breed in forms processing software today, making it a perfect fit. Our customers have worked with Kodak products for years and are accustomed to a high level of service, quality and performance. Combining key offerings from FormWare and Kodak with our own high performance recognition and data validation software, will ensure that we continue to meet that high level of expectation." ÿÿÿ "We are very excited about this new complementary partnership with Adaptive Solutions," said Reynolds C. Bish, President & C.E.O. of FormWare Corporation. "The EntryLink product line offers unique and truly high performance migration products for traditional Kodak customers. Since many of these customers have not yet taken advantage of forms processing or automated data entry because of their ties to legacy film equipment, this partnership will offer them new solutions
for accelerating their data entry." FormWare's products will be demonstrated at the AIIM '98 Show & Conference in FormWare's booth No.1825. ÿÿÿ Adaptive Solutions (http://www.asi.com) was founded in 1988 and pioneered data parallel processing for advanced pattern recognition, image processing and OCR/ICR applications. Today, Adaptive Solutions provides productive, mission critical, data entry through standards-based Computer Assisted Data Entry (CADE) solutions. ÿÿÿ FormWare Corporation (http://www.formwarecorp.com) was created in September, 1997 through the merger of TextWare(tm) Corporation and Symbus(tm) Technology, Inc., two established leaders in the market for forms processing software. The company provides high performance software for forms processing, image capture and indexing, post recognition processing, image data entry and key data entry on client-server, standalone PC and document imaging platforms. Its products are used on more than 25,000 PC's and client workstations processing over 25 million forms every day. All of these products are used to automate data capture from forms in order to populate database and document management systems in a more efficient manner. The company markets its products directly to end users and through systems integrators and VARs throughout the world. It is privately held and headquartered in Park City, Utah. ÿÿÿ (Note: EntryLink is a trademark of Adaptive Solutions, Inc.; FormWare is a trademark of FormWare Corporation; Kodak and ImageLink are trademarks of Eastman Kodak Company.)
