London, UK -- (ReleaseWire) -- 07/21/2006 -- Big Faceless Organization (BFO), provider of high quality Java software components, has established an exciting partnership with ConverSpeech, provider of text data mining software to life science institutions.

ConverSpeech have a long standing affiliation with the Human Genome Institute of the National Institute of Health (NIH), where they have helped implement a system that analyzes full-text articles saving academics and curators time finding critical information within NIH's MEDLINE database and other electronic publication sources.

ConverSpeech required software that could translate a PDF file into text for analysis and annotation and generate PDF files from the annotated text. With the deployment of BFO's PDF Library Viewer curators are now able to quickly and easily pinpoint where in an article there is likely evidence for a new scientific claim about a gene's function.

Colleen E. Crangle, founder of ConverSpeech declared "Big Faceless software allows us to bring efficiency and accuracy to an important scientific activity." "Without rendering the results of our analysis within the PDF version of the scientific article, database curators would be forced to read an article and then consult a separate display or printout of sentences extracted, without context, from the article."

London, UK -- (ReleaseWire) -- 06/01/2006 -- Big Faceless Organization (BFO), provider of high quality Java software components, is now working with Columbia University's renowned Chemistry department to help move undergraduate applications into the 21st century.

Columbia University's Department of Chemistry has hosted the National Science Foundation's Research Experience (NSFRE) for undergraduates for 20 years. In that time the application process has gone from a totally paper orientated format to the establishment of online applications.

"Once applicant data is received and stored in a database, we need to publish that data in a printable format," said a spokesperson for Columbia University. "The Big Faceless Report Generator seemed a logical fit with our needs. [It] allows us to print applicant information for acceptance Committee review, and we'll be using the application to generate graphs to analyse the demographic breakdown of our applicants."

"I was recommended the Big Faceless products and found implementing the software straightforward. To date the Big Faceless Report Generator has filled our requirements." said Michael Clayton of Columbia University.

About BFO: BFO is a global provider of Java based reporting solutions founded in 1998. They produce a stable of robust Java components for the international B2B market. Products include the Big Faceless Report Generator, Graph and PDF Library. The client portfolio includes Boeing, Lehman Brothers, Harvard University, HSBC, Fannie Mae, Roche, Toyota and US Department of Energy.

The new 2.6.7 release addresses the growing need for long-term archiving of information electronically. Documents can be retrieved and rendered with a consistent and predictable result in the future using the new version of the PDF Library. The need for this standard and functionality continues to grow within international governments and industry segments; including legal systems, libraries, newspapers and a variety of regulated industries.

What makes this PDF Library version 2.6.7 essential for institutions is PDF/A documents can now be 100% "self-contained". Put simply, they can be reliably reproduced without the need for external fonts, images or colour information.

Currently Adobe Acrobat 7.0 only supports a draft version of this specification and as such BFO are proud to be one of the first PDF vendors to support the full version of this exciting new standard.

A free trial of this groundbreaking new software package is available for immediate download from the BFO website.

The Big Faceless PDF Library version 2.4 offers non-technical users the ability to add additional signatures to digitally signed documents without invalidating the original signature. "The inclusion of multiple signature functionality is one of the most popular requests for enhancements we receive," says Mike Bremford, CTO. This feature enables unlimited parties to edit, sign and time stamp documents to authenticate them. Associated parties would only need to peruse the amends rather than the whole document, thus saving time and costs.

"Demand for this functionality is increasing across all industries. This is particularly the case when long distance contract negotiation or design development work is involved," says the CEO, Monica Kar. The new features offer all users speed and flexibility when multiple signatures are required. When integrated with the new 'review' and 'reply' features in Acrobat 6.0, it turns the BFO PDF library into a powerful tool for automating document workflow.

About Big Faceless Organization: BFO is a leading global provider of Java based reporting solutions. Founded in 1998, BFO's robust Java components include the Big Faceless Report Generator, PDF Library and Graph Library. Headquartered in the UK, BFO currently distributes to over 50 countries. The client portfolio includes global giants AT&T, JPMorgan, Hitachi, Toyota, Siemens, DHL, Athens 2004, KPMG, T-Mobile and Boeing.

Documentation is critical to the trading industry as a document can convey an offer, represent a contract, document a product or service, or provide notification, or the document itself may be the product. According to IDC, the leading global market intelligence and advisory service in the IT and telecommunications industries, dynamic enterprise publishing is the next generation in enterprise document production. Vendors in this rapidly growing, emerging market can take advantage of existing investments in content technologies to address the increasing enterprise requirement to improve communication through the efficient, on-demand generation of customized documents.

"Forecasts are showing a steady rise in demand for commercial software packaged with technical support and product updates" says Monica Kar, CEO of the Big Faceless Organization, "Our Academic Development Program opens the door to programming students who are keen to fast track themselves into the world of commerce".
