LinkOptimizer for InDesign Now Can Assign Serial Numbers to Image Names - Published on 08/27/18
Zevrix Solutions announces LinkOptimizer 5.2.9, a feature update to company's workflow automation solution for Adobe InDesign. LinkOptimizer works with Photoshop to lets users automatically scale and crop images to their InDesign size at specified target resolution, convert image formats, adjust colors, embed profiles and more. The new version lets users add link serial number, whether per page or document, to the optimized image names with the option to specify the number of leading zeros.
Toronto (ON), Canada - Zevrix Solutions today announces LinkOptimizer 5.2.9, a feature update to its image processing automation solution for Adobe InDesign. Awarded 4 out of 5 stars by Computer Arts magazine, LinkOptimizer automates complex image manipulation tasks and helps users reduce the size of InDesign links, save prepress costs, and easily repurpose InDesign documents for web and mobile devices.
The new version adds two new variable tokens for the optimized image name: the link's serial number per page and per InDesign document. Each token gives users an option to specify the number of digits per serial number to allow for leading zeros. The new tokens are especially helpful to the users who wish to simplify their image names without breaking the links to InDesign.
"Today LinkOptimizer batched a huge book project and another magazine project in minutes vs. hours. Now I can take the afternoon off and drink beer," says Brian Donahue, owner of Bedesign studio in Minneapolis, Minnesota. "Thanks for freeing up my afternoon, rather than doing production work."
LinkOptimizer works automatically with Photoshop to eliminate the excess image data of InDesign links, perform essential image adjustments and convert image formats. For example, with just a click of a button users can:
* Optimize dozens of InDesign files
* Scale and crop images to match their dimensions in InDesign
* Change their resolution to 300 dpi
* Convert RGB images to CMYK
* Resave JPEGs as TIFF
* Run a Photoshop action on each image
As a result users can save gigabytes of disk space and countless hours of optimizing images manually, accelerate document output, reduce job turnaround and cut costs through faster processing.
Pricing and Availability:
LinkOptimizer can be purchased from Zevrix website for $259.95 USD (Lite version: $179.95) as well as from Adobe Exchange and authorized resellers. Trial is also available for download. The update is free for LinkOptimizer 5.x users and $130 to upgrade from previous versions. LinkOptimizer requires macOS 10.7-10.13 and Adobe InDesign / Photoshop CS5-CC 2018.

Popular dice game Noch mal! released as an app for iOS and Android - Published on 08/27/18
Independent game developer, Outline Development today releases Noch mal!, the digital version of the popular dice game for iOS and Android. In this fun-to-play game, each player wants to make as many crosses and points as possible. The task is to start from the middle of the sheet, reach stars, fill columns and colors. Whether this can be achieved depends on one's own decisions and, of course, on the luck of the dice. There are no long waits because all players can use the rolled dice.
Siegen, Germany - Outline Development releases the digital version of the popular dice game "Noch mal!" for iOS and Android today. The physical game designed by Inka and Markus Brand, published by Schmidt Spiele GmbH, has conquered the hearts of those who love classic dice games, but searching for something new. With simple rules, the characteristic dice and a varied gameplay, "Noch mal!" is a modern classic!
The app now brings the familiar gaming experience to the touch screen. In addition to a solo mode for single players (30 turns and a local leaderboard), there is also a duo mode for two players on one device. If you want to play spontaneously or save paper, you can also use the app as digital dice or digital score pad - of course in any combination with real dice and paper. The first three expansions are included right from the start and offer lots of fun with the different layouts.
What's the game about? As in the original game, each player wants to make as many crosses and points as possible. The task is to start from the middle of the sheet, reach stars, fill columns and colors. Whether this can be achieved depends on one's own decisions and, of course, on the luck of the dice. There are no long waits because all players can use the rolled dice. The quick handling of the app drives this "It's always something to decide" feeling even further and so you are quickly faced with the question: "Noch mal? - Play it again?".

Advantages:
* BiggerPicture uses super-resolution *machine learning* techniques that imagines pixels to fill gaps created during upscaling. This creates blur-free upscaled images.
* All processing is done within the user's machine. There is no cloud-based processing, unlike the approach by some competitors. This makes BiggerPicture suitable for processing confidential or sensitive images.
System Requirements:
* macOS 10.13.2

ProFind - The most advanced File Search App for macOS
A new article has been published at prMac.
ProFind - The most advanced File Search App for macOS - Published on 08/27/18
Sydney based Zeroonetwenty today announced the availability of ProFind 1.0, their new search app for macOS. Under its elegant user interface, ProFind combines both metadata searches or file system searches into one, providing fast and complete searches. ProFind provides a slew of advanced features, including natural language search queries, application discovery, quick folders, multi-line path view with differences, word highlighting, searching inside invisible folders and packages, and more.
Sydney, NSW, Australia - Zeroonetwenty today announced the availability of ProFind, the most advanced file search app for macOS. In the past, file search apps have performed either metadata searches or file system searches. Under its elegant user interface, ProFind combines both these technologies into one, providing fast and complete searches. Along with this, ProFind provides a slew of advanced features including:
* Natural language search queries
* Application Discovery
* Large icon view
* Quick Folders
* Multi line path view with differences
* Highlighting of found words
* Searching inside invisible folders and packages
Natural language queries are just one of ProFinds many innovative features. Instead of users needing to navigate clumsy interfaces, users can simply type the search options they need. For example: "files bigger than 500mb" or "is video modified today." The natural language search supports searching by: date, file extensions, tags, parent folder, kind and metadata.
It's essential that a modern search app provides support for application discovery, so ProFind has support for auto completion of application names and almost instant find performance for applications installed on the users Mac.
"File search apps for macOS seem to have been long neglected. It was a real thrill to see how a new app with new approaches could advance the user experience." said Ross Tulloch, developer of ProFind.
Being a search application for Pro users means going the extra mile in terms of features. So ProFind has support for custom UNIX shell scripts and Apple Scripts. Users can simply drag scripts into the Scripts folder and then these scripts can run on found items. ProFind's Quick Folders feature allows users to quickly access the contents of commonly used folders.
ProFind has support for QuickLook, Sharing, the ability to open, show found items in the Finder, show file information and move to trash.
ProFind features a global hot key as well as a system wide menubar icon for instant access to ProFind.
Pricing and Availability:
ProFind 1.0 is available now at a cost of $7.95 (USD) and can be trialed free of charge for 21 days. ProFind 1.0 requires macOS 10.13 or later.

Protect & Code-Sign 32 and 64-bit Mac and Windows Apps With AppProtect
A new article has been published at prMac.
Protect & Code-Sign 32 and 64-bit Mac and Windows Apps With AppProtect - Published on 08/22/18
Excel Software announces AppProtect 5.0 to protect Mac or Windows software. AppProtect 5 generates a 32-bit or 64-bit protected App for a MAX music application, Unity game, Excel spreadsheet or any compiled Mac or Windows app. Users Code Sign the app during the build process. AppProtect applies protection with an offline or automated online activation process to a compiled application in minutes without programming.
Henderson, Nevada - Excel Software is proud to announce AppProtect 5.0 to protect Mac or Windows software. AppProtect applies protection with an offline or automated online activation process to a compiled application in minutes without programming. It supports most application runtime environments including MAX MSP, Unity3D, Xojo, Java, Delphi, C++, C#, Objective-C and Swift.
AppProtect works with OfficeProtect to generate a protected EXE (Windows) or APP (macOS) from an Excel workbook. Once activated to a computer, the workbook runs within Excel 2007 or later on Windows or Excel 2011 or 2016 on Mac. Excel features work the same except users cannot save out the unprotected workbook.
AppProtect 5 adds the ability to generate 64-bit executables for Mac and Windows in addition to the previous 32-bit executables. AppProtect adds the ability to Code Sign protected applications during the wrapping process. AppProtect MacOSX is now a 64-bit application delivered with a 64-bit, Code-Signed installer to satisfy recent macOS security requirements.
AppProtect wraps a Mac or Windows application with an activation process that requires a computer unique password or Serial Number on first launch. The software vendor can generate passwords from AppProtect or automate the process with an online activation server. Excel Software offers vendor accounts on the Safe Activation service to automate the Serial Number activation process, manage licenses or automate the payment and delivery process for online orders.
A vendor can self-host an activation server on their website with the Desktop License Server or WebActivation products. In addition to manual or online software activation, AppProtect can generate dongle enabled applications. Desktop applications can require that a USB dongle be present in the computer to run. Developers can create their own USB dongles with the MakeDongle product.
AppProtect can embed static data files into the executable. For an application constructed from an interpreted language or that requires external data files, the unprotected files are no longer visible to the user. This process protects the source code, allows a secure license to be applied and simplifies the user experience since the entire application is distributed as one file with a custom icon.
AppProtect can be used to protect a standard Mac OS X application (.app), Windows executable (.exe) or Microsoft Excel spreadsheet (.xlsm). A Single User license is $350 on either Windows (7, 8, 8.1 or 10) or macOS 10.9 or later. The product includes royalty-free distribution rights for any number of protected products or licenses. AppProtect includes a new User Guide and help screens that allow anyone to protect and license an application without programming skills or access to source code.
AppProtect is part of an integrated family of software protection, license management and automated order processing tools and services. Visit the Excel Software web site for demonstration videos, product information and secure online ordering.

A vendor can self-host an activation server on their website with the Desktop License Server or WebActivation products. In addition to manual or online software activation, AppProtect can generate dongle enabled applications. Desktop applications can require that a USB dongle be present in the computer to run. Developers can create their own USB dongles with the MakeDongle product.
AppProtect can embed static data files into the executable. For an application constructed from an interpreted language or that requires external data files, the unprotected files are no longer visible to the user. This process protects the source code, allows a secure license to be applied and simplifies the user experience since the entire application is distributed as one file with a custom icon.
AppProtect can be used to protect a standard Mac OS X application (.app), Windows executable (.exe) or Microsoft Excel spreadsheet (.xlsm). A Single User license is $350 on either Windows (7, 8, 8.1 or 10) or macOS 10.9 or later. The product includes royalty-free distribution rights for any number of protected products or licenses. AppProtect includes a new User Guide and help screens that allow anyone to protect and license an application without programming skills or access to source code.
AppProtect is part of an integrated family of software protection, license management and automated order processing tools and services. Visit the Excel Software web site for demonstration videos, product information and secure online ordering.

A new article has been published at prMac.
Free Imposition Software Now Available for Adobe InDesign Users - Published on 08/23/18
Meadows Publishing Solutions has released a new version of their Meadows Productivity Suite, a completely free set of software utilities for Adobe InDesign. With complete control over content placement and fitting, the MPS Pro Suite includes an advanced multi-up imposition utility, allowing users to quickly create multi-up imposition layouts of graphics, PDF files, or InDesign documents. The new version is now compatible with Adobe InDesign CC 2018 for both Macintosh and Windows.
Schaumburg, Illinois - Meadows Publishing Solutions today announced a new release of their Meadows Productivity Suite software, a completely Free set of software tools for Adobe InDesign that have been designed to streamline multi-up impositions, and other publishing tasks. The new release is now compatible with all Adobe InDesign CC 2018 systems.
About the Free Productivity Suite:
The MPS Pro Suite currently includes an advanced multi-up imposition utility, allowing users to quickly create multi-up imposition layouts of graphics, PDF files, or InDesign documents. The process is driven by a user interface that allows for the specification of trim size, bleed, spacing, and rotation of the imposed elements.
As the imposed elements are placed, crop and bleed marks can also be added automatically, and assigned to InDesign layers as they are created. For two-page impositions, the user can choose from one of several duplex modes, which ensures the imposed content will back up properly when printed. Control over content placement and fitting is also provided via a set of preference options.
The MPS Pro Suite comes with a comprehensive set of documentation, including a set of tutorial graphic files. In addition, online help for the software is being made available via the Meadows support ticketing system.
