FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Cerience Announces Mobile Document Solution
for Palm OS and Pocket PC

New RepliGo™ software enables viewing of virtually any document
on Palm OS® or Microsoft® Windows® Powered Pocket PC devices

(Fort Collins, CO) January 21, 2003 — Cerience Corporation (www.cerience.com) today announced the immediate availability of its RepliGo document mobility software. RepliGo converts Microsoft® Office documents, Adobe® PDF files, Web pages and hundreds of other document types into replicas of their original documents for viewing and printing on Palm OS and Pocket PC handheld devices. A fully functional 14-day trial is available at http://www.cerience.com

The Windows-based software combines the power of several individual software applications into a single solution that allows users to have anytime, anywhere access to virtually any type of document.

RepliGo’s unique document understanding technology allows for quick transformation of PC-based documents into mobile documents that maintain their original look and feel when viewed on a handheld device. Many of today’s existing solutions create text-based alternatives to documents, often compromising the document’s appearance.

RepliGo preserves the integrity of the original document and incorporates features like advanced zooming and text wrapping, which eliminates the tedious horizontal scrolling typically needed to read documents on small screen devices. All content such as fonts, charts, graphics, images, and tables can easily be viewed with a streamlined document navigation interface.

Lynn Formanek, co-founder and president of Cerience, explains, “By preserving the content and layout of the original document, our users will have greater ease of use, better collaboration with other users, easier document navigation, and more efficient document management.”

RepliGo relies on patent-pending software, which lays the groundwork for a new era of document mobility. The innovative features of RepliGo include the following:

RepliGo Microsoft Office and Internet Explorer integration for seamless conversion and transfer of documents to handheld devices.
RepliGo printer for converting documents from any application via the print command.
RepliGo Viewer for Palm OS and Pocket PC handheld devices.
Cross-platform document format which allows the same file to be transferred and viewed on Palm OS and Pocket PC handheld devices.
Document preservation that keeps documents looking the same as the original.
RepliGo's innovative document reflowing technology.
Document compression of over 50% of the original size, on average.
Optimized documents for fast decompression and viewing.
Integrated printing via infrared or Bluetooth (Pocket PC) from handheld devices to compatible Hewlett-Packard printers.
Expansion memory card support for Palm OS and Pocket PC handheld devices.

“We are excited to launch this product,” Formanek adds. “A tremendous amount of engineering and testing has gone into this solution. We have formulated one of the most advanced approaches to document mobility currently available.”

RepliGo is priced at $49.95 USD with an introductory offer of $39.95 USD. The software is available for a fully functional 14-day trial or purchase at the Cerience Web site (www.cerience.com) and many popular Internet distribution sites.
