INSCI Corp. announced the release of WebWare ActiveMedia 5.0: the latest version of its digital asset management (DAM) software. The newest version adds new capabilities for compound document support, providing management for QuarkXPress files including the ability to ingest, version, and maintain links between an Xpress document and all linked files. Identical handling is available for files created by Adobe InDesign, Adobe PhotoShop, and HTML files and their associated images and links. With the new ActiveShare folder and file sharing features, ActiveMedia 5.0 users can collaborate with other registered users. ActiveMedia 5.0 includes a new feature that enables users to email links of archived files to recipients inside or outside a firewall. Interoperability has been extended by the expansion of the ActiveMedia SOAP APIs, adding over 65 individual methods to support the development and extension of ActiveMedia’s functionality and interoperability. INSCI also announced the debut of its WebWare TransMedia Express service, an outsourced service enabling Adobe InDesign desktop publishing software users to automate the conversion of QuarkXpress documents into Adobe InDesign files. www.webwarecorp.com, www.insci.com
