HUNTSVILLE, Ala., May 1,1992 - Intergraph Corporation today announced the release of MicroStation Review. This addition to the MicroStation family addresses the need of many MicroStation users to extend the access to computer-aided design (CAD) drawings to project team members--even those with no CAD expertise. As an integral pan of the design and drafting process, MicroStation Review provides instant access to CAD data on the network. Project managers, drawing checkers, and others can view, redline, print, and plot current design information across a network. MicroStation Review offers users a high level of work group interaction without the cost of a full CAD seat. It dramatically reduces expensive hard-copy iteration and streamlines editing and revision cycles. Comprehensive redlining provides a means to communicate revision information to the original designers. Redlining features include annotation, notes, and the ability to specify areas for change. Because MicroStation Review makes use of MicroStation's reference file capabilities, this information does not affect the original drawing, ensuring data integrity. The user has full access to MicroStation's 2D and 3D files and all associated reference files including rendering for interference checking and presentations, database review for instant access to current information, and check plot generation. Users can customize MicroStation Review via MicroStation Development Environment (MDE) applications created under a full MicroStation license. These applications are limited to view-only functionality. Pricing and Delivery MicroStation Review will be available May 30 for Intergraph workstations, personal computers and compatibles, Sun SPARCstations, and Hewlett-Packard Series 700 workstations. The PC version of MicroStation Review requires a 386 or more powerful PC, but no math coprocessor. Laser and dot matrix printers are supported. Installation and documentation are designed to make MicroStation Review easy for the users without CAD experience to learn and use. The U.S. suggested retail price of MicroStation Review is $795 Integraph Background Information Intergraph Corporation is a billion dollar, Fortune 500 company with offices in over 40 countries.
