New version of company’s patented FlipViewer® features improvements to FlipViewer® Library

(SANTA CLARA, Calif. — March 28, 2007)- E-Book Systems, Inc., creators of the patented Digital Flip® online publishing technology, announces today the release of its FlipViewer® 4.0 digital publication reader.  FlipViewer® allows users to view publications, such as magazines, books, newspapers, catalogs and manuals, within a digital 3-D page-flipping format.

As an ideal way for reading a publication online, FlipViewer® features an intuitive page-flipping interface that lets readers “turn” pages, rapidly skim content and go directly to a certain page number — just like reading or browsing through a printed publication.  While users are reading the current page, the next few pages are streaming into the PC, so every page is only a click away.  Users can also perform keyword searches, bookmark pages, highlight passages and add comments using a virtual notepad.  Readers can immediately visit the publishers’ or advertisers’ Web sites by clicking on links on pages and advertisements inside the digital publication.

The latest version of FlipViewer® features improvements to FlipViewer® Library, the system that manages the FlipBook digital publications.  The improved user interface looks and functions similar to the user interface of popular media player applications, allowing users to create a variety of folders to organize their FlipBooks and sort publications by genre or publisher.  FlipViewer® Library now also automatically checks for new issues, so users never miss a new copy of their favorite FlipBook publications. 

Additionally, FlipViewer® 4.0 has new skins and icon sets, along with streamlined user interface, improved support for Windows Vista and on the fly decryption for DRM protected MP3 files.

With FlipViewer®, users can view any PDF, HTML, Flash and Word file in the page-flipping format. Digital Flip® technology allows publishers to incorporate a variety of multimedia elements, like MID, WAV and MP3 files, to enhance online publications that can be viewed by users of FlipViewer®, Mac FlipViewer® and FlipViewer® BV (Browser Version).

“E-Book Systems’ continuing improvements to FlipViewer® allow consumers to take advantage of the latest enhancements in online publishing technology,” said Seng Beng Ho, president of E-Book Systems. “These new features, particularly the improvements in the FlipViewer® Library, dramatically improve the overall user experience.”

E-Book Systems has publishing tools available for companies who want to convert printed publications into its digital 3-D page-flipping format. The company also offers in-house conversion services. E-Book Systems’ customers include Pearson Scott Foresman, Softbank Japan, FHM Germany, DuPont Registry, CNET China, M2Media 360 and Max Re Capital.
