Microsoft Budges Under Pressure, Talks Of ODF
	The Redmond giant to provide support to ODF and other formats in its Office suite.

Thursday, May 22, 2008: Microsoft seems to be putting a zip on the mouths of critics by expanding the range of document formats supported in its Office productivity suite. But before reaching out and patting Microsoft on the back, have a look at the EU's pressure on the giant to behave a bit. [The Commission’s Decision of March 2004 requires Microsoft to disclose complete and accurate interoperability information to developers of work group server operating systems on reasonable terms.] The company has announced that the Microsoft Office 2007 Service Pack 2 (SP2), scheduled for the first half of 2009, will include support for XML Paper Specification (XPS), Portable Document Format (PDF) 1.5, PDF/A and Open Document Format (ODF) v1.1.

The move makes sense owing to losing out on the government clients who do not want to get locked into any proprietary format. The beast of OpenOffice.org is out there, and Microsoft wants to ensure it continues to dominate.

SP2 will allow customers to open, edit and save documents using ODF and save documents into the XPS and PDF fixed formats from directly within the application without having to install any other code. It will also allow customers to set ODF as the default file format for Office 2007. To also provide ODF support for users of earlier versions of Microsoft Office (Office XP and Office 2003), Microsoft will continue to collaborate with the open source community in the ongoing development of the Open XML-ODF translator project on SourceForge.net.

In addition, Microsoft has defined a road map for its implementation of the newly ratified International Standard ISO/IEC 29500 (Office Open XML). IS29500, which was approved by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) in March, is already substantially supported in Office 2007, and the company plans to update that support in the next major version release of the Microsoft Office system, code-named 'Office 14'.

Microsoft will also join the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS) technical committee working on the next version of ODF and will take part in the ISO/IEC working group being formed to work on ODF maintenance. Microsoft employees will also take part in the ISO/IEC working group that is being formed to maintain Open XML and the ISO/IEC working group that is being formed to improve interoperability between these and other ISO/IEC-recognised document formats.

The company will also be an active participant in the ongoing standardisation and maintenance activities for XPS and PDF. It will also continue to work with the IT community to promote interoperability between document file formats, including Open XML and ODF, as well as Digital Accessible Information System (DAISY XML), the foundation of the globally accepted DAISY standard for reading and publishing navigable multimedia content.

Good to see that; thanks to the EU for building that pressure. Microsoft for sure doesn't want more fines from the EU. Someone once quipped, "A good stick can make an old dog learn new tricks!"

NEC Develops Flexible TFT LCD Technology
	The new technology enables LCD modules to be designed with varied, more flexible shapes that can be adapted to embedded applications and also to non-traditional LCD applications.

Wednesday, May 21, 2008: NEC LCD Technologies has developed a manufacturing technology that enables more flexible design of thin-film transistor (TFT) liquid crystal display (LCD) panels. The prototype design, a 'heart-shaped', low-temperature poly-silicon (LTPS) colour TFT LCD module formed using two half-circular arcs and two straight lines, has a display width of 4.0 cm, height of 3.6 cm and pixel pitch of 174 micrometres (146 pixels per inch).

NEC LCD Technologies' new technology enables optimal arrangement of gate and data lines in the pixel array and minimises the overlaps between gate and data driver circuitry, when the module is non-rectangular in shape. By applying its proprietary value-integrated TFT (VIT) technology and integrating the driver circuits into the module along the perimeter of the LCD glass, NEC LCD Technologies has simplified the interconnection scheme and substantially reduced the area needed to contain the wiring and interconnections between external circuits, thereby yielding a bezel as slim as 2.0 mm.

Traditional display modules are rectangular in shape, since it is the simplest, most efficient and versatile shape for accommodating the pixel arrays. Recently, LCD suppliers have started to introduce fairly simple non-rectangular LCD shapes, including circles, ellipses and rectangles with trimmed corners.

The shapes have been fairly simple because the more complex the shape, the more difficult it is to accommodate the wiring patterns, resulting in thicker bezels and greater consumption of power. Displays with non-rectangular shapes are generally targeted to replace mechanical instrument gauges-such as the speedometers and tachometers found in cars-and other applications that require simple shapes.

NEC LCD Technologies' new technology enables LCD modules to be designed with varied, more flexible shapes that can be adapted to embedded applications and also to non-traditional LCD applications. NEC LCD Technologies believes this development will stimulate the development of new and unique LCD applications.
