Kofax Launches New "Kofax Desktop" Software

Entry-Level Desktop Scanning Software Makes Scanning as Easy as Printing
IRVINE, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
Kofax plc (LSE: KFX), the leading provider of Intelligent Capture & Exchange
solutions, today announced the launch of Kofax Desktop, a new, entry-level
desktop scanning software that makes scanning a document as easy as printing by
seamlessly embedding such capabilities within Microsoft Office 2007
applications. The software significantly increases scanning access, efficiency
and productivity and extends Kofax`s software offerings to personal productivity
and collaboration applications.

"With the introduction of Kofax Desktop software, we now have broader access to
the capture market and can provide a range of products to address desktop to
enterprise needs," said Jim Nicol, Executive Vice President of Products at
Kofax. "Kofax Desktop provides powerful scan options within Word, Excel,
PowerPoint and Outlook or for scanning into SharePoint applications that many
workers and individuals use every day. It eliminates the need for separately
launched programs and time-consuming back-and-forth program switching, making
image scanning as simple, convenient and efficient as printing a document."

Simple to install and easy to use, Kofax Desktop brings the power of Kofax
capture technology to users who want to store digital images of paper documents
or a simple method to scan attachments into email messages. Embedded seamlessly
within Microsoft Office 2007 applications, the software offers easy access to
TWAIN-based scanners through a drop-down menu bar. The software also features
right-click scanning from Windows Explorer or the Desktop, thus allowing users
to scan, automatically convert a document into a PDF file format and then save
or email the image without having to open multiple applications. Scanned images
can also be tabbed within Excel spreadsheets or embedded within Word documents
and PowerPoint presentations for easy reference or access.

Kofax Desktop also enables Scan-to-SharePoint capabilities through SharePoint
Server 2007, thus allowing users to scan images directly into an existing
document library folder or create new folders quickly and simply. Additionally,
the software provides the ability to add a hyperlink within a Microsoft Outlook
2007 email message to a scanned document, thus making image access convenient,
easy and efficient.

Kofax Desktop is now available in a free trial version as a download at
www.kofax.com. The software can subsequently be licensed for $29.00 (U.S.).
