Lexis Nexis gives 'Diff Doc' the thumbs up!
“WE like
the product. It is fast and accurate. It seems to pick up all of
the differences in the documents, and it does a good job of
displaying those differences. We like the easy to use interface.
That is why we bought it!” Richard M. Baker (Lexis Nexis) 1/2004
Customer Reviews Come Flowing in as 'Diff Doc' Becomes A Main
Stream Product!
"I
found a product called Diff Doc that seems to work quite well for
comparing Word documents against other Word documents! (I don't
know how well it works with WordPerfect, though the documentation
claims that it is supported). Like many of you, I was looking at
DeltaView and was very upset at their inability to work with us on
the pricing structure. Diff Doc can also run from command line, so
integration with document managers is a snap (the author modified
the code over a couple of hours for me to get it to work with
WORLDOX Versioning. In return, I wrote his FAQ on WORLDOX
integration). Download an evaluation copy at

'Diff Doc'
Troy Piersma excerpt from a
TechnoLawyer Newsletter.
8/1/2003
"Just read the
TechnoLawyer
post from Troy Piersma. I concur completely. I recently left a
big firm which used DeltaView, and looked to get an equivalent
program after being blown off by the DeltaView sales rep because I
wasn't big enough for their policy. My Tabs and Practices master
reseller, Judy Lassek, had also put me in WORLDOX, with which I am
very pleased. She had heard of DiffDocs through her network, and I
downloaded it and tried it out. I had a hard time comparing
versions of the same document at first, but after receiving an
update from DiffDocs, it has worked very well for me. My practice
is transactional, requiring revising contracts regularly, and the
program works great for doing that kind of comparison. I recommend
that solos and others try it out, if for no other reason than the
company is such a refreshing change from its competition! However,
that wouldn't make much difference if the product itself weren't
good." Michael V. Mulchay, PLC

resource efficient program that currently converts over 75,000 documents a
day for us. We like the fact that the program has a command line interface
that allows us to integrate it into our automation routine. We evaluated
other software packages costing 10 to 20 times more, but selected Convert
Doc due to its speed and SoftInterface's service. We have been very
pleased with how quickly SoftInterface's development team responds to our
feedback and requests."
'Convert Doc' The Comprehensive Document Conversion Tool
Released
'Convert Doc' the
comprehensive document conversion utility has been released.
SoftInterface has created another simple to use yet highly sophisticated
document conversion tool.
If you need to convert thousands of files
with a variety of file types (PDF, Text, RTF, HTML, DOC, etc.) located
within many folders in a short period of time, this is the tool.
Especially if you
require complicated conversion jobs done on a regular basis.
'Convert Doc' can be run from the command line
allowing for use in batch files as well as launching programmatically from
other programs.
With CD you can use SoftInterface conversion
algorithms, or those built within MS Word itself giving you an extreme
amount of flexibility.
In
addition to doing file conversion, CD also has features to further enhance
its usefulness. For example, whole folders and sub-folders of files may
be specified to be converted. Also, you can choose to place the converted
files within the original folder or a folder of your choice.

SoftInterface Releases CompareFilesX and FindInFilesX, RADical Components
So what's new and "different" about SoftInterface's
products? At first
glance SoftInterface's ActiveX/OCX creations are not terribly unique.
Comparing files and directories (CompareFilesX) or finding text within
files (FindInFilesX) has been done by many a programmer in the past.
Heck, all of Microsoft’s 32 bit operating systems have Find utility
that will optionally search for text. So
what makes SoftInterface think it can one up Bill?
Yes it’s true, they’ve been done before, however not in
the format of a component. By
encapsulating these capabilities within an ActiveX it allows programmers to
integrate this functionality into “their” end products.
This effectively will allow programmers to create their own input and
output GUI’s (or non GUI) specific to the nature of “their” products.
Also, both CompareFilesX and FindInFilesX feature a separate thread of
execution, effectively allowing for a smooth end user experience.
That is, the applications created with these components will allow the
end users to continue working while the components are hard at work.
Asynchronous task management makes everyone more productive.
Considering the time it would take an average programmer to
create a file comparator or text search facility, CompareFilesX and FindInFilesX
are priced very reasonably.
