OAKS, CALIFORNIA — Eureka Electronic Publishing, Inc. (Eureka
Publishing) today announced the publication of The
ultradata Encyclopedia, a
single repository that contains all of the documentation for the software
of ultradata (Pleasanton,
California; nasdaq: ultd),
a company that provides information management solutions for
relationship-oriented financial institutions. The ultradata
Encyclopedia is a corporate documentation
encyclopedia that can be used by both internal and external clients. It is
delivered on cd-rom with
updates available over the Internet.
It can be used on intranets as well. ultradata develops, markets and
supports: ultrafis®
an advanced information management engine, the Financial Services Suite of
information management modules and the Ultra-Access® suite of
remote banking products. ultradata
had a need to consolidate, centralize and make more efficient and methodic
the delivery of their documentation. Eureka Publishing consulted with ultradata and helped them save time and money by automating
some of the processing for The
ultradata Encyclopedia. More
than 700 files totaling approximately 20,000 pages were processed for use
in The
ultradata Encyclopedia.
The files were created in Adobe FrameMaker.
Through a variety of routines written by Eureka Publishing, the
FrameMaker files were processed and special PDFMark codes inserted into
the FrameMaker files. These
modified files were then processed through Adobe Distiller to create a
fully-linked, complete Encyclopedia
in Adobe PDF (Portable Document Format) files.
The automation allows the files to be updated and then reprocessed
quickly, saving ultradata
hundreds of hours and allowing more frequent updates at less cost. The
Encyclopedia
is also available through the company’s existing online help system.
“The Encyclopedia
has been helping to reduce case load, foster client self-reliance, and
help us sell to new clients and retain existing clients as it is superior
to our competitors’ tools” said Michael Seaman, Manager of
Documentation at ultradata. “Our
development team helped ultradata
handle its large quantities of interrelated documents in a manner that
saves them time every time it is used — whether the Encyclopedia
is used by an internal ultradata
employee or a customer,” said Steve Mathias, Director of Development at
Eureka Publishing. Eureka
