Allegis Corporation announced that Net-It Central 3.5, has been designed to leverage the new Web publishing features in Microsoft Office 2000. Net-It Central 3.5 takes full advantage of the new HTML publishing capabilities of Office 2000. The product automatically publishes HTML, jDoc or both formats and provides user control over the format published on the company intranet or extranet. This capability is especially critical because the HTML renditions created by Office 2000 require Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher for proper viewing. Additionally, Net-It Central 3.5 builds “smart sites” that automatically deliver the optimum format based on the Web site visitor’s browser client. Net-It Central categorizes and enables searching of documents using descriptive information or “metadata” that the product captures in XML-compatible format. A 30-day free evaluation of Net-It Central 3.5 is now available. Net-It Central 3.5 is now shipping. www.allegis.com
