Компания Paragon Software объявляет о добавлении русских звуковых модулей в сервис онлайн-перевода МультиЛекс Онлайн, доступный по адресу http://online.multilex.ru/. Теперь пользователи МультиЛекс Онлайн и всех партнерских ресурсов (в том числе Словари@Mail.ru), могут прослушать звучание переводимого слова не только на английском, немецком, французском, итальянском и испанском, но и на русском языке, что будет крайне полезно в качестве справочного материала изучающим язык и всем тем, кто сомневается в правильном произношении того или иного слова. Компания гарантирует высокое качество звука и правильность произношения слов, записанных профессиональными дикторами.

Для того, чтобы воспользоваться новой возможностью, необходимо ввести слово на русском языке в поисковой строке сервиса. На страницах перевода слов есть кнопка с изображением динамика, нажав на которую можно услышать их произношение.

«Мы планируем продолжать развивать сервис онлайн-перевода МультиЛекс Онлайн, дополняя его новыми возможностями для изучения и понимания не только иностранного, но и родного языка. Новый функционал сможет значительно повысить эффективность сервиса для пользователей, изучающих и совершенствующих русский язык, - комментирует Дмитрий Бехтерев, директор по маркетингу и продажам компании Paragon Software.

Напомним, что словарный сервис МультиЛекс Онлайн включает обширную коллекцию из общих, толковых, специализированных и лингвострановедческих словарей. МультиЛекс Онлайн мгновенно осуществляет перевод лексики, в том числе из таких областей как: строительство, экономика, банковское дело, компьютеры, право, техника, медицина, солнечная энергетика, нефтегазовая отрасль и телекоммуникации. Кроме того, владельцы веб-ресурсов могут бесплатно добавлять на свои сайты новую возможность для посетителей – получать перевод слов в реальном времени и обращаться к одной из обширнейших коллекций словарей в Рунете.

Одним из крупнейших партнеров, использующих сервис МультиЛекс Онлайн, является компания Mail.ru, применяющая словарные технологии Paragon Software в сервисе Словари@Mail.ru.

Компания Epocware/Paragon Software выпускает новую программу Handy Phoneguard для Symbian S60 (3.0 и 5.0) для полноценной защиты информации и устройства от посторонних глаз. Даже в случае утери или кражи устройства, программа поможет вернуть телефон и максимально обезопасить хранимые в нем данные. Handy Phoneguard всегда стоит на страже мобильного устройства, как при чрезвычайных, так и в повседневных ситуациях.

По данным многочисленных статистик, кража мобильного телефона является самым распространенным уличным преступлением. Помимо потери дорогостоящего устройства, можно лишиться личной переписки, контактов, фото и других гораздо более важных сведений. Программа Handy Phoneguard обеспечивает надежную защиту, позволяя удаленно блокировать и стирать всю личную информацию в случае утери или кражи смартфона и даже вернуть устройство. Handy Phoneguard удаленно и автоматически отправляет SMS владельцу смартфона с номером новой SIM карты. Чтобы поддерживать уровень повседневной защиты, программа позволяет защищать паролем и шифровать любую информацию в смартфоне (Контакты, Звонки, Сообщения, Изображения и многое другое).

• Номер «чужой» SIM-карты по SMS. Если кто-то сменит SIM-карту в смартфоне пользователя, Handy Phoneguard незаметно отправит SMS на заранее определенный номер телефона с номером новой SIM-карты.
• Удаленная блокировка доступа к смартфону и приложениям. Если пользователь не уверен, что телефон украли, можно заблокировать доступ к его содержимому, отправив с любого телефона специальное SMS-сообщение.
• Удаленное стирание всех данных в смартфоне. Обнаружив что телефон украли, пользователь может отправить SMS и стереть все содержимое смартфона, чтобы злоумышленник не получил доступ к личной информации (контактам, сообщениям, фотографиям, видео, записям, документам и пр.).
• Установка пароля при включении смартфона.
• Блокировка доступа к личной информации и приложениям. Каждый раз при попытке доступа к тем или иным данным или приложениям Handy Phoneguard запросит пароль.
• Автоматическая блокировка. Через заданный промежуток времени включится автоматическая блокировка паролем данных или приложений.

Более подробно узнать и на практике оценить возможности программы Handy Phoneguard можно на сайтах компании: http://www.epocware.com/ru и http://www.penreader.com/ru.

Москва, сентябрь 2009 года

Компания Paragon Software Group совместно с издательствами RELOD и Лингвист, официальными партнерами Oxford University Press в России и Украине, объявляет о выпуске первого словарного комплекта Oxford Russian Dictionary. В рамках соглашения знаменитое печатное издание The Oxford Russian Dictionary будет продаваться в комплекте с электронной версией словаря от Paragon Software во всех крупнейших книжных магазинах России и Украины.

Компания Paragon Software продолжает активно сотрудничать с издательством Oxford University Press. Теперь все покупатели англо-русского словаря Oxford смогут получить электронную версию издания, разработанную Paragon Software. В сентябре 2009 года новые комплекты словарей, дополненные электронным словарем, заменят все печатные издания The Oxford Russian Dictionary на полках книжных магазинов. Напомним, что Paragon Software является единственной в России компанией, получившей право на выпуск электронной версии популярного англо-русско-английского словаря The Oxford Russian Dictionary.

The Oxford Russian Dictionary представляет собой англо-русский словарь от известного британского издательства Oxford University Press. Словарь разработан специально для тех, кто изучает и постоянно использует английский язык, содержит справочные разделы по грамматике, тематические статьи по британской и американской культуре, а также дополнительные упражнения для самостоятельной практики.

Благодаря компании Paragon Software, печатное издание The Oxford Russian Dictionary будет дополнено диском с электронным словарем, который можно установить на ПК или ноутбук и переводить незнакомые слова наведением курсора. Электронный словарь The Oxford Russian Dictionary так же, как и печатный, может похвастаться одной из лучших современных словарных баз английского языка, которая включает русские, британские и американские диалекты, современные идиомы и разговорную речь со множеством пояснений. Более того, словарь содержит 20 000 звуковых примеров слов, озвученных носителями языка, что поможет узнать нюансы «живой речи» и существенно улучшить произношение. Значение слова можно узнать, как во всплывающем окне при наведении курсора на слово, так и в режиме подробного перевода словаря, кликнув колесиком мыши на незнакомом слове. Также владельцы нового печатного словаря, укомплектованного диском, получают возможность приобрести словарь для мобильного устройства со скидкой 30%.

«Мы давно сотрудничаем с издательством Oxford University Press, но впервые выходим на уровень работы с печатной продукцией издательства. Имея успешный опыт разработки и распространения электронных словарей Oxford, мы уверены, что покупатели издания The Oxford Russian Dictionary в книжном магазине по достоинству оценят новый словарь, теперь включающий и полнофункциональную электронную версию», - комментирует Дмитрий Бехтерев, директор по маркетингу и продажам Paragon Software.

Компания планирует выйти на рынок печатной продукции в Европе и СНГ. В перспективе будут реализованы совместные проекты с другими издательствами.

Рекомендованная розничная цена на словарь с диском составляет 1300 рублей (300 Грн).
