Atalasoft Releases New Barcode Reading Add-On and Beta of Silverlight Imaging Controls

Thursday 02. April 2009 - At the 2009 AIIM International Expo and Conference, Atalasoft, Inc., a leading provider of imaging components and technology for Microsoft .NET Framework-based developers, today announced the release of a new barcode reading add-on to the DotImage 7.0b toolkit. The new barcode reader processes most barcodes up to 300% faster than Atalasoft's previous barcode reader, but is still runtime royalty-free for desktop deployments.

The release of the barcode reader was also an opportunity to release several new updates and features for the DotImage toolkit. Atalasoft DotImage is a full-featured photo and document imaging toolkit for applications built using the .NET Framework for Windows Forms, Microsoft ASP.NET WebForms, and WPF.

Not least among the updates to DotImage are: improving the processing of very large TIFF and PDF documents, such as maps and oversized charts, for memory and bandwidth-efficient viewing. Developers using the ISIS protocol for their scanning applications are now provided with ISIS import drivers for easy scanner testing.

For organizations that are ready to bring Silverlight document imaging to their line-of-business applications, DotImage 7.0b also marks the launch of the beta version of DotImage’s Silverlight web controls. The evaluation period of the beta will close with the release of the Silverlight controls in early May.
