Lectora by Trivantis Enables e-Content Development in Over 200 Languages
CINCINNATI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 14, 2004--Trivantis Corporation announced the rollout of Lectora International Publishing Suite, authoring and publishing software with the capability to create text in almost any language. The newest version of Lectora supports the Unicode Standard, the international coding system designed for the global interchange of computer-based text. Unicode includes more than 200 languages including all major languages, most minor languages, and many ancient languages. By supporting all the Unicode languages, Lectora International now enables content developers around the world to create and publish multimedia e-learning content, websites, and presentations in nearly any language.
Trivantis, the world's leader in digital authoring and publishing software, has sold Lectora globally for years. The addition of Unicode support is significant for Trivantis and Lectora in countries such as China, Japan, and Korea, where double-byte characters require different computer operating systems. Since Unicode is a universal double-byte code, Lectora supports languages in these countries and hundreds more.
"The demand for an international edition of Lectora has been strong," said Tim Loudermilk, Trivantis founder and CEO, "Lectora International Publishing Suite makes it possible for practically anyone to create and publish content in any language anywhere in the world. The possibilities for how or where this edition of Lectora is used are truly unlimited."
For a 14-day trial version of Lectora International Publishing Suite, visit the Trivantis website at: www.lectora.com.
About the Unicode Standard and Double-byte
The Unicode Standard is a character coding system designed to support the worldwide interchange, processing, and display of the written texts of the diverse languages and technical disciplines of the modern world. In addition, the Unicode Standard supports classical and historical texts of many written languages. Because each code consists of two bytes of data, Unicode is sometimes referred to as "double byte."
