Although HexMac was exhibiting at a newspaper show, its Web products could easily be applied to other publishing applications. You can also append stories to existing pages and establish links from within Xpress. You can choose the size at which the image should be displayed and also assign an ALT command for those without graphical Web browsers. QuickTime movies are also supported.
Dialogs specify the mapping of styles to HTML tags.
The Xtension also reads font names, such as Frutiger Bold, and assigns the appropriate bold style to the selected text. A set of GIFs, one for every letter of the alphabet, is also included for use as drop caps or initial caps. You can select one of these or place your own in the specified file folder. With this Xtension, HexMac includes an invisible GIF, which is used to create the illusion of a left indent. The preferences dialog automatically assigns the GIF to paragraphs in the Xpress document that have a left indent applied.
