Atalasoft announces SharePoint doc components


By David Worthington
September 9, 2008 — 
As SharePoint becomes an integral part of the workflow in some enterprises, and repositories are copiously filled with documents, the need will arise for better navigation. A document imaging component maker has developed a suite of productivity applications for SharePoint in an effort to provide that missing functionality.

Today, at the Digital Management Solutions conference in Cologne, Germany, Atalasoft announced its Vizit product suite. Vizit consists of Previewer, a freeware add-on for SharePoint that gives thumbnail views of documents within a repository; Vizit SP, a document editor and viewer; and Vizit Scan to SharePoint, a document scanning utility.

Previewer opens thumbnail views of single- or multi-page documents on mouse over, and the box moves down with the user as they scroll through the repository. It supports Microsoft Word 95 and above, including the Office Open XML format, as well as PDF, said Rutherford Wilson, director of product management for the Vizit suite.

Excel and PowerPoint support is on the road map, he noted. A beta of Previewer is available at the Atalasoft Web site.

For working with documents, Vizit SP opens documents in another browser window for editing and viewing. Users may modify a document’s layout and can change document properties.

Within Vizit SP, there is a thumbnail navigation of documents, as well as an explorer view of the exact list that the document is stored in within SharePoint, said Wilson.

A beta version of Vizit SP will be released in October; pricing has not yet been determined.

Vizit Scan to SharePoint is a free application that is designed to simplify the workflow of getting electronic copies of paper documents into a SharePoint repository. Atalasoft has partnered with Kodak to create a “one-touch” workflow where documents are scanned directly into SharePoint from Kodak scanners.

Once scanned, documents may be assigned to users, and Vizit integrates with the workflow conditions set up in a repository, said Bill Bither, president and CEO of Atalasoft. A beta version is now shipping.
