MacSpeech has entered a marketing agreement through Mariner’s Strategic Partner Program. The initiative will feature Mariner’s office productivity software for the Mac, and iListen, the multi-lingual Macintosh speech recognition program.
Mariner Write 3.0, the latest version of the word processing software for the Mac, was released in July. This version is OS X native and sports other enhancements too. Mariner Write 3.0 also delivers Microsoft Word document read support, mail merge functionality, the ability to save documents as PDF files and spell checking on-the-fly.
Mariner Calc is a streamlined spreadsheet for the Mac designed for the analysis, simulation and forecasting of numerical data. It’s available in versions for the traditional Mac operating system and Mac OS X. Mariner Write 3.0 and Mariner Calc 5.2 are currently available from Mariner Software.
iListen has just received compatibility improvements with Mac OS X 10.2 (“Jaguar”) and is unveiling new multi-language versions of iListen at Mac Expo Paris this week. The new release of iListen includes versions in French, Italian, UK English, Dutch and German for Macintosh OS X 10.2. iListen 1.5.1 is the current shipping version, and updates are available at the product Web site.
MacSpeech and Mariner are working out final details on the reselling status, as well as domestic and international implementation of co-marketing initiatives. The companies will also explore product integration within each of the company’s flagship products, Mariner Write and iListen.
