Personal Knowbase Reader Software Enables Sharing of Notes and Documentation

Pinole, California -- Bitsmith Software has released version 3.1 of Personal Knowbase Reader. PK Reader is a viewer for files created with Bitsmith Software's Personal Knowbase notes management software for Windows. It allows users to view, search, export, and print Knowbase articles.

Personal Knowbase is a freeform text organizer which uses a keyword-based system to store and retrieve related information in a natural way, by association. By filtering on keywords and other criteria, the user controls exactly which notes are listed at any time. PK Reader allows users to easily share their stored information with friends or colleagues who haven't installed the Personal Knowbase software. Corporations can distribute documentation to employees. Professors can give research and class notes to students. Help centers can share support information.

Using PK Reader, multiple users can access Knowbase files across a network at the same time. Store operating documents, FAQ's, and other information on a network computer as a publicly readable file, and all employees can reference them simultaneously.

To distribute content, PK Reader may be burned to a CD along with accompanying documentation files. Documentation may be stored in Knowbase files themselves and in external files linked from the Knowbase file using attachments and hypertext links. PK Reader can be set up to automatically load the appropriate file when the CD is inserted and the program started.

With the new version 3.1, PK Reader is also portable when installed on a USB stick or flash card. Users can carry their information with them and access it from any Windows computer without leaving personal information or settings behind on computers that they visit.

Personal Knowbase Reader 3.1 is free for personal use. Customized licenses are available for business and government use starting at $180 for 30 licenses. Runs on Windows 98/Me/2000/XP/Vista.
