New Features Advance Organizational Control of Batch Print Jobs and Provide Greater Flexibility

September 28, 2005 - Coastal Logic, Inc., the leading provider of batch printing and PDF rendering integrations for MatrixOne PLM, today announced significant upgrades to its print solution, printLogic.

printLogic is a server-based web integration that allows users to batch print documents directly from the eMatrix database. Printed files can be automatically stamped with metadata based on multiple stamp templates created and controlled by the administrator. New features in version 4.5 improve business printing process efficiencies and enable organizations to attain regulatory compliance by providing strict control over printing and metadata stamping.

"Our goal is to provide a comprehensive and flexible product, designed to grow with our clients. Implementing evolving standards such as XML is one of the ways we can accomplish this", said Wayne Hoit, Vice President, Coastal Logic, Inc. "Many of the new capabilities in this release are a direct result of the shift to XML and the hierarchical data structure that it provides. By adding these new features we have directly addressed some of the desires of our clients."
