XChange UK Annouce Em Software InDesign Plug-ins for Creative Cloud - Published on 12/12/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

XChange UK are excited to announce the release and availability of five popular Plug-ins for InDesign Creative Cloud from Em Software. The industrial-strength products are in production use at tens of thousands of sites world-wide. Users who purchased the CS5/CS5.5/CS6 version of any of the Plug-ins from 1st January 2013 or after, are eligible for a free upgrade to the CC version. XChange UK are a leading supplier of PDF workflow and automation tools, desktop graphic and publishing applications.

London, United Kingdom - XChange UK, the source for extended technology worldwide, are excited to announce the release and availability of five popular Plug-ins for InDesign Creative Cloud from Em Software. The industrial-strength products are in production use at tens of thousands of sites world-wide. Users who purchased the CS5/CS5.5/CS6 version of any of the Plug-ins from 1st January 2013 or after, are eligible for a free upgrade to the CC version.

Products include:
DocFlow for InDesign - DocsFlow marries the collaborative editing power of Google Docs to the layout power of InDesign. DocsFlow lets users place online Google Docs documents as InDesign story contents, just like normal text files. And, much more importantly, DocsFlow maintains a dynamic link so it can intelligently merge Google Docs document changes into the InDesign story contents on each link update, rather than just replacing the story. So users can format, layout, and make minor edits in InDesign, while they - and others - edit story content together in real time on Google Docs, without losing any work.

WordsFlow for InDesign - WordsFlow is a file-based editorial break-through product, enabling authors and editors to continue working on story files while they work on the same story in InDesign. WordsFlow does this by "merge-updating" from changed Word files, rather than letting InDesign just re-import over all a user's work. This spares users the pain, frustration and inevitable mistakes involved in hand-merging changes. What's more, it works entirely invisibly, with no user interface beyond the standard file linking machinery end-users are already using for graphics.

InData for InDesign - InData works like a mail merge on steroids. Users simply create a template in a normal document, with rules that tell it how to format their text and graphics. Then, with a single menu invocation, the Plug-in builds the document at jaw-dropping speeds-up to hundreds or even thousands of pages per hour. Customers can use their publishing platform's typographic controls for each variable field and for any static text, to get just the right look for their data. InData has a powerful English-like scripting language. Users can put any field from their data source in any order in the text flow, force page breaks, generate headers/footers, apply master pages as needed-and much more.

InCatalog for InDesign (available late December for CC) - InCatalog creates transparent links between InDesign documents and databases or spreadsheets. Once links are established by means of the easy-to-use data linker palette, users can update prices, graphics, or product information automatically - even change versions or swap languages. InCatalog is designed to update prices, graphics, or product information with one-click ease, in just about any kind of catalogue, price list, travel schedule, directory, one-to-one marketing flyer, etc. With InCatalog, users can rest assured their documents will always reflect their database contents. A standard license enables InCatalog to work with delimited text data "snapshot"; files, and, under Mac OS X, with on-line FileMaker Pro (and FileMaker Pro Runtime) databases. A Pro license further unlocks the ODBC capabilities of InCatalog, which can then update documents directly from and to ODBC-accessible databases such as MySQL, PostgreSQL,
Oracle, SQL Server, Sybase, Access, etc.

Xtags for InDesign - Xtags for InDesign is an import/export text filter supporting the Quark XPress Tags language plus their own extended Xtags tags, for tremendous document-building and extracting power. With Xtags, users can build any text content with full styling (the same as XPress Tags), anchor and fill picture and text frames, build and fill unanchored frames, size picture contents to containing frames, size frames to content (text or picture) in various flexible ways, translate text and tags on input, use macros to reduce typing, apply master pages and spreads, and more. For output, Xtags will save the contents of any text story, including anchored text and picture frames, and will also save the structure and content of any selected text, picture or group frames.

The Em Software Plug-ins for Adobe Creative Cloud are available now through XChange UK. Customers can use the site wide coupon code XE317401129 when ordering to save 10% on their purchase. To order, or for more information, users can visit the website or call during regular business hours.

The concept was born out of frustration from watching his wife, Angela - a fashion buyer - come home to spend countless hours disseminating information after buying trips. As he observed her painstakingly cutting out images and putting them on boards, or trying to remember the details of a day spent viewing 400 garments, Secul knew there had to be a better way.

His 20-plus years of experience in fashion design, merchandising and sales led him to create an intuitive and user-friendly solution that focuses on what's really important to buyers. iMerchandise users can control their entire workflow from start to finish with this feature-rich app, from snapping photos and managing multiple brands and categories, to creating budgets, developing and sending orders to vendors and coordinating deliveries. Sharing images through social media is simple, as is sending full products right to an eCommerce website.

The app is designed to work seamlessly on one device, even if vendors use fashion platforms, paper or emailed line sheets. It eliminates the need for cumbersome spreadsheets and paperwork, puts an end to overspending and ordering errors and allows buyers to quickly and efficiently interface with their vendors and reps. With iMerchandise, buyers can work on the go, minimizing the effort expended on tedious administrative tasks and freeing up time to focus on more important, revenue-enhancing endeavors.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 6.0 or later
* 7.3 MB

Pricing and Availability:
iMerchandise Fashion APP 1.0.6 is $29.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Business category.

Heroes vs. Mechs Tower Defense Hits the iOS App Store - Published on 12/12/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Replayism today introduces Heroes vs. Mechs Tower Defense 1.0 for iOS, a free tower defense game where sci-fi meets fantasy. The player is placed in the midst of a raging battle between warriors of legend and weapons of mass destruction. As a commander of the Mech army, they must construct a system of turrets to fend off wave after wave of vengeful Heroes. Combining a modern genre with charming retro graphics, Heroes vs. Mechs brings addictive, thinking gameplay to players of all skill levels.

Toronto, Canada - Replayism, creators of ParaShoot, today is proud to announce the release and immediate availability of Heroes vs. Mechs, a free tower defense game where sci-fi meets fantasy. The player is placed in the midst of a raging battle between warriors of legend and weapons of mass destruction. As a commander of the Mech army, they must construct a system of turrets to fend off wave after wave of vengeful Heroes.

"This game was inspired by my personal favourite tower defense game, Robo Defense," says William Kwan, CEO. "I loved how open the map was, letting the player construct towers almost anywhere they wanted and having the enemies react to the player's decisions, rather than the other way around. I wanted to make a game that took this concept to the next level, adding more maps, more enemies, and ultimately, more strategies for the player to deploy."

With 10 maps and 5 levels of difficulty, Heroes vs. Mechs certainly reflects the company name. Another standout feature is the real-time attacking; unlike other tower defense games where you build your towers and watch the action from the sidelines, you can directly engage in the battle by dropping a flaming meteor, or by teleporting an enemy.

Combining a modern genre with charming retro graphics, Heroes vs. Mechs brings addictive, thinking gameplay to players of all skill levels.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 5.1 or later
* 21.9 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Heroes vs. Mechs Tower Defense 1.0 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category.

Light Boost: the cure for dark, grainy photos - For iPhone and iPad - Published on 12/12/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

As the world's most popular camera, the iPhone takes great photos and videos - except at night, when shots turn dark and grainy. Light Boost is a new app that's designed to help. Take a photo or video with Light Boost using its easy one-touch controls and it'll be brighter and less grainy. In very low light, Light Mode brightens the image, Night Mode enables long exposure times for dramatic improvement, and Grain Reduction reduces image noise. The result is spectacular performance.

Cheshire, United Kingdom - UK-based app developers Interealtime today launched Light Boost, a brand new light boosting camera that takes brighter, clearer photos and videos in low light. It's a universal app that works on both iPhone and iPad. Having built the first night vision app for iPhone with realtime image enhancement (True NightVision) and the first true long exposure app for iPhone (NightCap), their new offering promises the best possible performance in all conditions, from merely indoor to moonlight.

Light Boost offers a fine balance of high performance and ease of use. Simply open the app and take a photo or video, and in low light the results are consistently brighter and less grainy than the regular Camera app.

In very low light, Light Boost has additional tricks to squeeze every last bit of performance from the camera:

* Light Mode instantly boosts brightness while preserving image clarity
* Night Mode puts the camera into a special mode optimised for ultimate low light performance
* Grain Reduction Mode helps reduce image noise
* Zoom control (camera-style for easy, smooth zoom)

In Night Mode, photos get much longer exposure times which give the camera more time to absorb light - 5-15x more light, depending on the iPhone or iPad model. For video, on recent devices the camera is put into a special mode that works at a lower resolution but massively increases sensitivity. Light Boost also uses Dynamic Framerate, reducing frame rate automatically to boost brightness even more.

Light Boost includes a full set of pro tools too:
* Live shutter speed and ISO display
* Quick, separate locking of Exposure (EXP), Focus (FOC) and White Balance (WB)
* Adjustable Light Mode exposure compensation and Grain Reduction

App Features:
* Designed to out-perform the standard Camera app in low light
* Designed for easy, automatic use: simple, 1-touch controls for all major features
* Designed for quality too: full resolution photo and video output on all devices
* Universal app that runs on both iPhone and iPad
* Clear, easy to use, uncluttered interface with separate versions optimised for iPhone and iPad screens
* Long exposure photos in Night Mode (to the maximum your device supports, between 1/3s and 1s)
* Video mode works at 15-30 fps (frame rate reduces dynamically in low light to boost brightness)

Video mode runs in special, lower resolution modes in Night Mode on newer devices. This dramatically increases brightness in low light. Framerate in Night Mode is 10-30 fps, helping increase brightness even further.

Device Requirements:
* All iPhones except 3G and original iPhone
* All iPads except original iPad
* All iPod touch models that have a camera
* iOS 6 or later (optimised for iOS 7)

Pricing and Availability:
Light Boost 1.0 will initially be discounted by 50% (to $0.99 or local currency equivalent) to celebrate the Christmas season. It's a universal app that works on both iPhone and iPad with a single purchase. For full details please see the App Store description. If you're interested in covering or reviewing either app for your website or publication and would like a free download code please contact Interealtime.
