The CSView150 plugin delivers superior quality and speed for over 150 formats
including: AutoCad (including r13), unlimited sized TIFF files, Word, WordPerfect,
HPGL, DXF, JPEG, Intergraph, CALS, CGM, BMP, WinFax, etc. (see below for
complete list of formats) The CSView150 plugin is a powerful tool not only
for your browsing community but especially for your document publication
process. For the first time you can set aside the time consuming, costly
and error prone document conversion process. Your publications and drawings
can be published in their native formats. Since our plugin automatically
recognizes over 150 formats regardless of file extension or Mime-Type,
your publishing process is simplified. You can use the industry standard
Mime-Types for each format or you can use our all encompassing image/any
Mime-Type for all of the 150 formats that we view. Why ask your user community
to purchase and accommodate themselves to a different plug-in for virtually
every format. Why run multiple plugins simultaneously when just one plugin
can handle virtually all of your formats. CSView150 transforms your browser
into a singular document viewing environment. Whether you are browsing
the internet, IntraNet or simply dragging and dropping files from your
hard drive, LAN or WAN.. CSView150 consolidates your document viewing environment.
Local document management systems can also take advantage of our multi-format
document presentation just by launching any supported document directly
into Netscape or Explorer (n:\…\browser.exe n:\path\filename) With the
CSView150 plugin, images can be posted without file conversion and viewed
inside Netscape or Explorer. Your staff and clients can browse these documents
and navigate through them with exceptional speed. Page through multi-page
documents or zoom in to fine detail on engineering documents with equal
ease and a uniform user interface. With the click of a button you can clone
documents from Netscape or Explorer to our comparison and mark-up application.
Present side by side views of multiple documents and multiple formats Cascade
and tile many documents for fast overviews of a topic or project Use powerful
mark-ups for comments, notes and drawing annotations Copy and paste images,
text and CAD vectors between documents and between formats. Overlay similar
documents for comparison or integration Hide, Show and Swap Colors of layers
of Cad Drawings including AutoCad, Microstation, HPGL, etc. To illustrate
we have provided a demonstration page with a variety of engineering drawings,
office documents and images. Please visit our web site at http://www.sysu.com/plugin/

Just click on all the pictures you want (not limited to a single HTML page)
and, when you're ready, click on BATCH DOWNLOAD. That's all it takes! Site
providers: Have your users been bugging you to be able to batch download
files? Have you set-up a hokey ZIP scheme where you zip all the selected
files to a single zip (sapping your CPU and disk resources)? How about
batch downloading those files directly? The batch-download plugin defines
a new multi-file mime type. The small cgi-scripts (all around 10K - easy
to integrate into your pages) handle the rest.
