BITS partners with SPYG for Internet technology! $2 going up! Bitstream Partners with Spyglass to Incorporate Font Technology in Interactive Television Bitstream's Font Technology and Spyglass ThinGUI Graphics Library Significantly Enhances Television Display Quality CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 2, 1999-- Internet pioneer Spyglass® Inc. (NASDAQ: SPYG - news) announced today at the Embedded Systems Conference Spring that support for Bitstream's (NASDAQ: BITS - news) patented, award-winning scaleable font technology, TrueDoc , would be made available in the Spyglass ThinGUI Library. Bitstream's TrueDoc works well for interactive television applications. With its small code size and fast rendering speed, TrueDoc provides interactive television developers with scaleable fonts that have minimal impact on system resources. TrueDoc takes up a small amount of space, generates characters quickly, and renders high-quality text. The resulting characters are fully scaleable to any point size at any resolution on any device. Spyglass ThinGUI Library is a small footprint, 2-D graphics library created specifically for device manufacturers that require a robust user interface in processor and memory constrained environments. Spyglass ThinGUI Library is bundled with Spyglass Device Mosaic Web browser and Spyglass Device Mail Internet mail technology to assure a highly customizable, portable user interface for television and other non-PC device implementations. By integrating Bitstream's font technology in the Spyglass ThinGUI Library, manufacturers and developers will have access to a broader range of font capabilities that significantly improve the look of Web content displayed on a television. TrueDoc's multilingual capabilities can record and render any character shape. It is fully compatible with double-byte non-Latin fonts, and it supports languages written vertically or right to left. These fonts will speed the process of developing country-specific versions of both the Spyglass Device Mosaic browser and the Spyglass Device Mail email product. Versions of these technologies are on display here at the Embedded Systems Conference in Spyglass booth #1221.
