OpenDoc is designed for optimization of performance for both the 68K and Power Macintosh systems. The memory requirements have been reduced for OpenDoc technology allowing developers to design high functionality components with a smaller memory footprint.
Performance is increased for functions such as the speed in which documents are launched.
In addition, OpenDoc 1.1 enhances the performance of Cyberdog, Apple's Internet suite using Live Objects based on OpenDoc technology. In the eight months OpenDoc has been shipping, Apple has delivered four upgrades that have made the technology more stable and easier and faster to use. That commitment is resulting in Live Objects from both Apple and its developers being available to consumers today. This suite of OpenDoc components for Apple 68K and Power Mac systems will provide easy access to Apple's multimedia technologies. The 1.0 versions shipping are the QuickDraw Apple 3DMF Viewer and the Apple Button, which can embed sounds, speech and URLs.
