EL SEGUNDO, Calif - October 3, 2001 - Glovia International, the business-to-business e-commerce subsidiary of Fujitsu Limited, today announced a strategic OEM partnership with FormScape, a provider of software to help companies customize, distribute and manage business documents. Under the agreement, Glovia will immediately begin offering ePublish, new software powered by FormScape that dynamically automates and translates business documents exchanged by disparate systems.

ePublish supports collaboration via email, XML and fax, enabling trading partners to overcome the complexity of translating multiple business document formats. Whether the document originates from an ERP system or a CRM system, users will find it easy to manipulate the data for customized presentation and delivery. ePublish also allows companies to securely publish shared information such as purchase orders and invoices on a corporate intranet.

"Over the next two years, more than 90 percent of companies intend to participate in online B2B commerce according to new research by the B2B media company Line56," said Matt O'Malley, president and CEO of Glovia International. "By deploying ePublish, global businesses and trading partners can surmount the communication barriers posed by multiple data streams and formats, without the expense of re-engineering their existing systems."

"Just as thousands of companies worldwide have, Glovia's ePublish customers will experience FormScape's powerful, yet easy to use technology to strengthen their foothold in B2B commerce," said Joe Torano, COO of FormScape. "FormScape empowers ePublish users with the unsurpassed ability to manipulate multiple data streams and customize the presentation and distribution of electronic and traditional business communications."
