The Support Assistant inside many of our apps provides regularly updated tips (that I also post here as “Tuesday Tips”) and slideshow tutorials giving step-by-step introductions into our apps. I have now added them to our website, too, so that you can read or play with them also when you just haven’t our apps open or when you’re relaxing on your couch with your iPad. Isn’t that cool? Click here to check them out! To read the tips and watch the tutorials...
DEVONagent Express also available in our own shop
If you’d been staying away from DEVONagent Express because it was only available through Mac App Store we have something for you: You can download it as a free trial from our download page now and buy licenses in our own online shop. And this is only the beginning. Step by step we will make all our commercial apps available also through our own shop for those of you who can’t or don’t want to buy in the Mac App Store....
New shop online
In the last few weeks I have been working behind the curtain on a new online shop with a new provider, Avangate. The new shop is easier to navigate, much better integrated, and offers us a more modern backend. If you had problems with our previous shop check it out.
Read our documentation on your favorite ebook reader
Some might not know but the documentation that is built into DEVONthink, DEVONnote, and DEVONagent Pro was always also available as PDF. But after the relaunch of our website they looked strangely old-fashioned I have to admit. In the last few weeks I reworked the layout and adapted it to our new design. And, was I was at it, I dropped the landscape-oriented PDF for reading on the screen in favor of an ebook. So you can now download the documentation...

3rd and last public beta of new scanner and camera plugin
We have fixed another couple of bugs in our new scanner and camera support plugin (see the last posting here), e.g. with recognizing iPhones, multi-page scans on certain devices, and putting the computer to sleep with the scanner interface open. So if you are a DEVONthink Pro Office user and own a scanner other than a Fujitsu ScanSnap (we support this using a different technique), a digital camera, iPhone, iPod, or iPad with a camera please download the 3rd public beta...
