ASAP WebShow Plug-in for Netscape 2.0 -- ASAP WebShow is
the Newest in a long line of recent Netscape 2.0 plug-in entrants.
WebShow is an inline presentation viewer that allows users to view,
download and print graphically rich (but still quite compact) reports
and presentations. ASAP WebShow lets anyone with the Netscape
Navigator web browser view documents created by Software
Publishing Corporation's ASAP WordPower report and
presentation software package. WebShow is currently available in
both plug-in and helper application versions for Windows 3.x and
Windows 95 platforms. ASAP WordPower reports are replete with
graphically rich pages, gradient colors and graphical objects like
tables, pyramids, organization charts, audio and more, yet the
reports are compactly stored reducing overall file size and
eliminating the need for compression. For example, thirty graphical
pages in a report can occupy as little as 11 Kb, giving even 14.4
users quick access to the power of WordPower and WebShow.
The plug-in itself offers an excellent interface, including a toolbar
for effectively managing presentations. Each report can be played
inline (automatically or manually) from within a web page, resized
to make use of the full web browser screen, or even maximized to
make use of the entire monitor screen. Graphic integrity at each
level is superb and play, 'rewind', 'fast forward', beginning, and
ending buttons allow users to quickly navigate through a
presentation. In addition, ASAP WebShow offers a 'quick jump'
button for jumping to the page of your choice, much like a web
bookmark or VRML viewpoint. While WebShow does lack the
ability to actually create presentations, there is a trial edition of
ASAP
