Two PlanMaker objects in TextMaker |
For instance, you can insert a PlanMaker worksheet in TextMaker, or a
pie chart from PlanMaker in a SoftMaker Presentations slide. Using
the OLE server fuctionality, you can insert any document,
calculation, or presentation slide in any SoftMaker Office application.
Furthermore, all applications of SoftMaker Office work with the same
file formats. That means you can, for example, create an address list
in PlanMaker, save it as a dBASE database, and then use it in
TextMaker as address database to create mail merges or print address labels. |

In the Press
PC Professionell:
"Recommended, compact office suite with very good
filters for Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel."
The Great Software Blog:
"SoftMaker Office represents an improved, more
powerful Microsoft Office 2003, but built with ease and speed at
every turn in its interface and engine. Most people will want exactly
that, especially those not willing to relearn everything with
Microsoft Office 2007." |
|
Compatible. Microsoft Office,
OpenDocument, and many more.
When you receive documents from friends or colleagues, you want to
edit them with your office suite. That's why SoftMaker Office reads
and writes Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files with highest fidelity.
You can even set your default file types to "Word",
"Excel", and "PowerPoint", and never worry about
exchanging documents again!
NewsForge.com says about PlanMaker: "You won't find a
more Excel-compatible spreadsheet on any operating system",
and InfoSyncWorld raves about TextMaker: "Perhaps the
most appreciated feature will be the lossless round-trip
conversion for Word documents, which worked without a hitch on
all our formatted, footnoted and neat Word documents."
TextMaker also supports the open document standard OpenDocument,
thereby making it compatible with OpenOffice.org. In addition,
TextMaker, PlanMaker, and SoftMaker Presentations export documents to PDF
format at the flick of a key. Such files can be viewed and
printed with Adobe Reader or any other PDF viewer.
Fast. Nobody wants to wait.
Nobody likes to wait. You should not put up with slow office
software – period! SoftMaker Office starts lightning fast, works
lightning fast and calculates lightning fast. While the competition
still tallies up the figures, your document is already done!
But SoftMaker Office is not only fast: it also has minimal
hardware requirements. Even on older computers – back to
Windows 2000 – SoftMaker Office cuts a fine figure.
You can even install SoftMaker Office 2008 on a USB stick. That way,
you always have your office suite with you, ready for action.
Reliable. Does what you want.
Nothing is more annoying than an office suite that does not do what
it is supposed to do. The German computer magazine c't has
published some horror stories
about some of our high-priced competitors.
In contrast, SoftMaker Office is renowned for working reliably in all
situations: It won't be fazed by the largest documents and most
complex calculations.
Affordable. Costs only a fraction of
Microsoft Office.
€ 69.95 | US$ 79.95: This is a price everybody can
afford. No need to pay more for a full-featured office suite.
