New InterWrite Software Adds More Functionality to Enhance Meeting and Teaching Environments

December 12, 2002–GTCO CalComp, Inc. announced today the release of Version 3.30 of their InterWrite software, for use with their interactive whiteboard products. InterWrite software is a key element of the popular MeetingBoard, MeetingPad, SchoolBoard and SchoolPad products from GTCO CalComp, enabling users to control meetings, lessons and presentations from anywhere in the room. Support for serial, USB, wireless and Bluetooth connectivity is provided.

“InterWrite software is designed to be the most intuitive and user-friendly annotation software on the market,” said Rob Meissner, Vice President of Marketing for GTCO Calcomp. “InterWrite Version 3.30 demonstrates again our commitment to continue to provide greater capabilities and more powerful annotation tools, while still delivering the ease-of-use that our customers expect.”

New features of InterWrite 3.30 include:

Freehand Text Recognition enables you to draw freehand letters that are automatically converted into text and inserted into any application.
Capture Button enables you to capture a window, part of the screen or the full screen. The captured image can be added to the current annotation page or to a new page.
Increased annotation options—You can select any pen color for 12 of the 16 pen choices. The largest width for the eraser tool can now be one-tenth the width of the screen.
Simpler connection to Bluetooth Boards and Pads—The Device Manager will now automatically scan for and connect Bluetooth devices at start-up. In addition, a new menu item has been added in the Device Manager to discover and connect all devices, including Bluetooth ones.
Image Selection Tool shows thumbnails of all saved images and lets you select the image you want to view.
Enhanced annotation editing capability—Annotations can now be grouped and ungrouped, and the stacking order of the annotations can also be changed. Also, users can now select an object and change its attributes (color, width).

InterWrite software is available from GTCO CalComp or your local reseller. Trial versions and updates for existing users are available online, free of charge, at www.gtcocalcomp.com/supportinterwritesoftware.htm.
