Atlanta, Georgia - Qoppa Software, a leading producer of PDF software, announces a major new release of PDF Studio, their powerful, easy to use, cross-platform PDF desktop tool. PDF Studio 8 adds JavaScript support in PDF forms, faster rendering, improved text selection, and user interface improvements.

"PDF Studio 8 greatly refines the user experience when working with all features of our advanced PDF application: when rendering PDF documents, when reviewing and marking up documents with annotations, and when filling interactive PDF forms. Our goal at Qoppa is to continue to offer the best deal on PDF software: ahead of the competition when it comes to features, but at less than a third of the price! When you consider that PDF Studio is also cross-platform, this makes it the best choice for enterprise deployments." says Gerald Holmann, Qoppa Software President.

JavaScript Support:
Filling interactive PDF forms in PDF Studio 8 has become even easier with JavaScript support which adds:
* Form field calculations to automatically compute the value of given fields from other fields
* Form field validation to prevent invalid data entry and ensure that all required fields are filled in
* Form field formatting to facilitate the capture of special fields such as dates, social security numbers, postal codes, phone numbers, etc.

* Huge performance increases when rendering documents and drawing annotations
* Better responsiveness when scrolling, navigating, and zooming in PDF documents

Text Selection:
PDF Studio 8's new text model delivers major enhancements in the way text is extracted, selected,and marked up in the application:
* Text extraction and selection now support column detection in documents with multi-column page layout such as articles, magazines, and other publications
* The new cursor-based selection and highlight tool follows the natural order of text within pages and handle selection across columns. An alternate rectangular selection mode is also available as a fall back to when selecting non-consecutive text on a page

Improved User Interface:
PDF Studio 8 offers new graphical skin options to choose from when customizing the appearance of the application, including the Substance and the Nimbus look and feel. Professionals in the print, graphics, and construction industry will also enjoy the new Pan and Zoom tool which allows zooming inside high-resolution documents and moving around a page while keeping a view of the overall page on screen.
