FOREFRONT ANNOUNCES FOREFRONT HELP BUTTONS

Software expands button functionality for windows help files

July 24, 1995 -- BOULDER, CO -- ForeFront, Inc. today announced ForeFront
Help Buttons, a software tool set for creating buttons and toolbars for
Windows help files. ForeFront Help Buttons contains a button editor for
easily creating stylized buttons and expands the functionality of buttons
in standard WinHelp.

ForeFront Help Buttons adds UP, DOWN, and INACTIVE button states to
WinHelp, with different graphics or text for each state. Each depressable
button can be linked to an action such as a jump, popup, or macro.
ForeFront Help Buttons also provides the ability to create buttons in
secondary windows, another key improvement to standard WinHelp which
supports buttons only in the primary window. Users can easily create
macros to enable, disable, show, or hide individual buttons or button
groups.

ForeFront Help Buttons' menu-driven button editor automates development of
professional looking buttons. Users can create their own button style, or
select from over 40 predefined templates for commonly used functions such
as EXIT, CONTENTS, BACK, CLOSE, and PREVIOUS. Using standard Windows
dialog boxes, the Button Editor allows the user to specify the button
graphic or text, and select button properties such as button size, border,
depth, and placement. Buttons may be placed anywhere in the topic text or
in the nonscrolling area. Buttons may be also grouped into Windows-style
toolbars.

ForeFront Help Buttons enhances productivity on large help projects by
creating templates for user-defined buttons and toolbars which can be used
repeatedly. Names can be assigned to buttons and groups of buttons for use
with WinHelp macros.

ForeFront Help Buttons provides the enhanced button features to any help
development system. The graphical Button Editor operates with the ForeHelp
2 authoring system, also from ForeFront. ForeFront Help Buttons is
available now for $69 from ForeFront, Inc., 5171 Eldorado Springs Drive,
Boulder, CO 80303. Phone: (800) 357-8507 or (303) 499-9181 and FAX: (303)
