SYNERGIS® SOFTWARE PARTNERS WITH BLUEBEAM® SOFTWARE

Companies to Deliver Automated PDF Publishing and Printing Solutions to Synergis Adept® EDM Users

Pasadena, CA and Quakertown, PA, November 9, 2004—Bluebeam Software, a developer of PDF solutions designed for engineers and architects, and Synergis Software, a developer of the award-winning Synergis Adept® engineering document management (EDM) solution, today announced a technology partnership to bring intelligent PDF publishing and printing solutions to Synergis’ customers. Bluebeam’s specialized PDF technology will allow Synergis Adept customers to extend their document distribution capabilities across the enterprise and the Internet.

“We are committed to extending the Adept’s value to a greater number of users within an organization by providing a single point of document distribution with Adept and enabling more people to create and share rendered PDF or DWF documents,” said David B. Sharp, III, president and CEO of Synergis Software. “We partnered with Bluebeam because its technology not only outputs an accurate PDF rendition from native CAD applications, but also includes specialized features such as text stamping and file embedding to improve our customers’ workflow beyond the engineering department to the rest of the organization.”

Adept provides a complete out-of-the-box document management solution that streamlines design and engineering processes for manufacturing, facilities management, architectural design, plant management, construction, civil engineering and other industries. It solves the problem of storing, retrieving and securing controlled documents. With the technology from Bluebeam, Synergis Software plans to also solve the issues faced by organizations who require controlled creation, distribution and access to documents within the organization and to external partners, contractors, and vendors to streamline communications.

According to Richard Lee, the President and CEO of Bluebeam Software, “Bluebeam has always been dedicated to increasing productivity for our architecture and engineering customers, so we are pleased that we will now be extending our capabilities to Synergis Adept users to manage their critical electronic assets.”
