ROCHESTER, N.Y., July 24, 2003 – Xerox has named Rochester Software Associates (RSA) as its Software Partner of the Year for the fifth time in the past six years. The 2002 award recognizes sales and quality achievements, as well as the significant contribution of partners to the Xerox digital document production business. "The contributions of RSA were instrumental in achieving our 2002 partnering sales objectives and increasing customer satisfaction," said Jerry Murray, vice president, Xerox Production Systems Business Group. RSA earned the award, presented at the annual Xerox partner meeting in Rochester, based on the outstanding success of its M.I.S Print software solution licensed with Xerox production printers. M.I.S. Print converts Xerox and line printer data streams to PostScript, an industry standard format, which can then be printed, archived or viewed on the Web. This process multiplies the usefulness of documents, streamlines print production, increases productivity and reduces expenses by consolidating print centers. “This award recognizes the success of our software solutions with Xerox products,” said Robert Baden, president, RSA. “To be selected from the many companies that are Xerox software partners, especially five times, is quite an honor, and we expect continued growth and success in our Xerox partnership.”
