SUNPRO AND SYMANTEC CHOOSE TOM SAWYER SOFTWARE

Top products in market categories license the Graph Layout Toolkit

BERKELEY, Calif, June 7, 1994 - "Tom Sawyer Software Corporation has made
strong strides towards establishing the Graph Layout Toolkit as the
corporate standard for graph visualization in application software by
licensing layout technologies to industry leaders SunPro and Symantec,"
said Brendan P. Madden, President and CEO of Tom Sawyer Software.

SunPro, the software development business of Sun Microsystems, Inc., has
licensed the Graph Layout Toolkit for use in the SPARCworks 3.0
Development Environment. The SPARCworks Development Environment uses the
Graph Layout Toolkit Hierarchical Library for advanced graphical data
inspection within the SPARCworks debugger. The Graph Layout Toolkit can be
used in software development environments for visualization of call
graphs, inheritance hierarchies, makefile dependency graphs and for many
purposes specific to displaying program structure.

Symantec has integrated the Graph Layout Toolkit Hierarchical Library as a
component of its acclaimed Time Line 6.0 Project Management System for
Microsoft Windows. Tom Sawyer Software provides the placement technology
behind Time Line's new Outline PERT and Time-Scaled PERTfeatures. Outline
PERT provides a logical representation of a project and all of its
sub-projects while Time-Scaled PERTshows projects and subprojects with
time-constrained tasks.

The Graph Layout Toolkit supports three unique layout styles. The
Hierarchical library is ideal for use with project management software,
compiler and software development tools, data inspection software,
work-flow software and reverse engineering applications. The Circular and
Symmetric libraries have been designed specifically for the network
management, design and simulation markets. The Graph Layout Toolkit
enables network management applications to map large computer networks
automatically.

The Graph Layout Toolkit is specifically designed to provide portable,
real-time, automated, graph layout services through a family of class
libraries written in C++ that include ANSI CAPI's. The Graph Layout
Toolkit's sophisticated technology is the result of more than six years
research and development in automated layout technologies. Additional
family products are already underway that will provide for a wider scope
of layout styles.

Tom Sawyer Software, based in Berkeley, California, was founded in 1992 to
develop a family of related automated layout and editing products based on
the latest graph layout technology and object-oriented design principles.
