Slate Writer™

With the addition of Slate Writer to a Website, users can for the first time quickly and easily add digital ink to any HTML form, augmenting Web applications with the ability to incorporate and capture handwritten notes, signatures, sketches, markup, redaction, redlines, and annotation. Slate Writer works with the Slate Server to generate a composite view of the original image with the new digital ink markup. The existing Web application receives all data posted from the HTML form as well as the rendered ink, sending the combined results back to the user.

Slate Writer supports:
 - Background images (using any image format)
 - Document overlays
 - Existing application authorization and security
 - Usage Logging and Reporting
 - Licensed product or hosted model

Use Slate Writer to energize and deliver content for entertainment, education, and collaboration. Repurpose archived content in new and captivating  formats. And give users the ability to upload any image anywhere on the Internet. With Slate Writer, whatever users can see, they can now do. Transform Website content from “Take it or leave it” to “Take me and use me.”

E-Greetings

Don’t you wish you could actually sign your e-greetings. Slate Writer lets e-greetings and e-postcards go farther than simple text. See how Tim and Garth added that something deeply personal lacking in other e-greeting cards. 

Digital Photos

Online photo communities are great ways to save and share digital photos. But the host sites have trouble monetizing their user base. By giving users tools to mark-up their photos, you also give them an excuse to email, fax, and print the new picture. Each option adds dollars to the bottom line. See how Jackson (and his father) personalized his photo specifically for his Grandmother Ruth. What you see is what would be sent via email or fax along with a text message.
