SAN FRANCISCO, CA--June 19, 1995--Macromedia, Inc. (NASDAQ:MACR), the

support for Apple Computer's newly announced Power Macintosh 9500.
Macromedia already delivers a full range of products, including Director,
MacroModel, FreeHand and Fontographer, for the existing Power Macintosh
platform and plans to continue to leverage Apple's hardware advancements
in future product development.

"The advances in the Power Macintosh 9500 will be a great step forward for
design professionals who depend on increasingly faster computers to
improve their effectiveness," said Joe Dunn, vice president of product
management at Macromedia. "The increased power and performance will enable
Macromedia to provides its customers with applications and capabilities
