Paperless 1.0.1 ships!

We finally got Paperless 1.0.1 out the door. We are calling this an interim release as there are
still a few bugs we are knocking off. If you have Check for Updates active you will be notified
by the app that there is a new version. Look for Paperless 1.1 soon.

and yes, work has begun on Paperless 2.0!

Mariner Calc 2.0 for iPhone Hits the App Store! (and a note to what's coming)

Last week Mariner Calc 2.0 for iPhone was finally approved by Apple (after 16 days in the approval process - can you say...slow?!). Included in the release is the following:

• Cut, Copy, Paste (system wide)
• Named range support
• Email a file (outgoing)
• Find and replace
• Sort ascending or descending
• Password protected WiFi web based file server
• Settings for user info
• Settings for email options
• Settings for startup behavior
• New temp file sytem for quick saves of large files
• Plus a ton of bug fixes and smaller features

This is a free upgrade for all Mariner Calc 1.x customers so no need to dig in your wallet for that credit card.

So what's next in the App Store for Mariner?

MacJournal for iPhone and Contour for iPhone are now in development. MacJournal is closing in on beta so that should probably be released first.

Stay tuned. Mariner's Mobile Device Division is just ramping up!

Montage 2.0 finally hits beta!

Hi All-
After what seemed like decades in alpha (ok, I'm exaggerating a hair), Montage 2.0 finally reached
the beta stage. Here's a list of what we have added to this upcoming major release.

• Added Script Locking & Revisions Tracking
• Added 'WYSIWYG" on screen Pagination: MORE/CONT'D now display on screen
rather than only in print, on screen page count reflects what will print
• Added an Annotations Navigator
• Added a Timeline View for story development
• Added a Names Database
• Added more export formats: Word 2007, HTML, XML, Plain Text, Web Archive
• Added greater functionality to Headers with ruler control and additional variables
• Added a tabbed view for the Notes area in Outline, Character, Location, etc views
• Added picture fields to Notes areas
• Added contextual menu functionality to the keywords box in the views pane
• Added the ability to import Contour files, added a template for importing Contour content
• Elements can now be assigned by right clicking and selecting from a contextual menu
• Added Insert > Page Break
• Page numbers and other header information now displays on screen
• Keyboard shortcuts are now available in popup menu at the bottom of the editor window


It's hard to put a date on when we will release 2.0 but hopefully by the end of the year. For all
those that purchase 1.5.3 now, the upgrade path to 2.0 is a freebie. All 1.x owners will be looking
at a reasonable upgrade charge.

Best,
Mike
