PageFocus Pro merges desktop publishing with hypertext-enabled database management and application development. It can be used for creating drawing, brochure, graph, image file, hypertext, PDF files and form. It can also be used to create and manage databases of number, text, drawing, and image. The underlying WYSIWYG graphical user interface lets you create form-based (and database) applications with ease.
The package supports double-byte languages, including vertical text entry. Has spell check for American English and Spanish. A separate international version adds spell-checks of British English, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Spanish, and Swedish.
Works seamlessly with open source Ghostscript for importing and exporting PDF files. Once imported, you can use the PDF file as the template and add fields to create data entry forms and setup databases.
The package consists of two programs. The main program is a powerful, yet easy-to-use drawing and desktop publishing program. It provides all the tools you need to create/edit drawings, images, graphs, forms, and hyper document with ease. You can create dynamic forms with entry fields, selection lists, equation field (for automatic computation at runtime), tables, buttons, and check boxes. You can combines forms into database application programs. It also provides multi-language spell-check, and image edit functions. The program has library management and project management functions for managing your works.
The run-time "presentation" program has a build-in database engine and can be used as a browser, form filler, form database manager. You can save the entered information and set up databases, as well as cross-reference and auto-link databases in different forms. You can also use this program to manage your everyday information.
