Montage allows Java programmers to easily create graphically attractive Applets and stand alone applications. It consists of a drawing tool, a programmer's library, an on line manual, extensive tutorials, and thousands of lines with sample source code showing how to write Applets, stand alone applications, and Painters. List price is $295 USD.

The drawing tool is written entirely in Java. With its simple click and drag interface compelling pictures can be created without any programming. These pictures are stored in a compact and flexible file format allowing for fast transfers over a network, making them ideal for the Internet and intranets. The image to the left occupies less than 26 KB. Thanks to Java's dynamic linking capabilities any programmer can extend the drawing program, and the file format, to handle new graphic primitives by writing small pieces of code called Painters (the sky, the stars, the planets and the fire in this image are examples of Montage Painters).

By using our royalty free programmer's library, Montage pictures can be displayed from within any Java program. This represents a significant advantage for Java programmers:

Even programmers that know little or nothing about graphics programming can now easily add stunning graphics to their programs.

Program maintenance becomes simpler since anybody can use the the drawing tool to update the graphic content without changing a single line of code.

By writing Painters new rendering code can be dynamically added at ay time to Applets or stand alone applications built with our library.
