News: Corel/Bitstream to Provide Next-Generation Linux Font Support..

Wednesday December 15, 11:59 am Eastern Time

Bitstream Inc. (NASDAQ:BITS - news) and Corel Corporation (NASDAQ:CORL - news; TSE:COR - news) announced today that Corel has licensed a Linux® font server currently being developed by Bitstream. Corel will integrate this font server into the office and graphics suites that it is currently developing for Linux.

''Bitstream is excited about introducing one of the most user-friendly Linux font subsystems for TrueType and PostScript,'' said Paul Trevithick, president of Bitstream Inc. ''This will be a critical technological step towards the commercial success of Linux. We are confident that other Linux developers like Corel will recognize its value, and that many will adopt it as the technology of choice for providing font fidelity and ease-of-use for their customers.''

''The Bitstream font technology will give us the highest-quality font subsystem for Linux,'' said Rene Schmidt, vice president of software development for Linux at Corel Corporation. ''This technology moves us closer to our goal of having high functionality and true cross-platform compatibility between Windows and Linux.''
