Uniplex Business Software is a suite of UNIX™-based
office applications designed to handle routine office ac-
tivities. Uniplex II Plus, the base program for all Uniplex
Business Software, provides word processing, spread-
sheet, database and business graphics. In addition to
Uniplex II Plus, several optional applications can be
added to expand overall office functionality.
Document boilerplate merge
Flexible search and replace
Automatic index and table of contents generation
Spelling dictionary and thesaurus
Flexible printer formatting on Digital printers
Uniplex Advanced Office System (AOS) adds electronic
mail, time manager, personal organizer, card index
and report writer. Uniplex Advanced Graphics System
(AGS) provides charting, graphing and freehand draw
capabilities. Uniplex Additional Dictionary Pack (ADP)
provides support for multiple dictionaries which enables
users to spellcheck documents in various languages.
Spreadsheet
The Uniplex spreadsheet provides the user with a
choice of using either the Uniplex interface or an in-
dustry standard interface (ISSI) similar to that used by
other leading spreadsheet products. Data can imported
from Lotus® 1-2-3, DIF or ASCII files into a matrix as
large as 1024 rows x 256 columns. Integration with
database information allows data to be extracted, us-
ing SQL (Structured Query Language), and displayed
into individual cells from either the Uniplex database or
specific external database systems. Additional Uniplex
spreadsheet features include:
Uniplex Business Software uses consistent commands,
menus and softkeys throughout all applications. Users
may "hot-key" between several applications or between
multiple areas of the same application. All applications
are highly integrated with each other; a single screen
can contain a spreadsheet with business graphics win-
dowed into a word processing document.

Card index
Formfill
Formfill allows users to create, or generate from a doc-
ument, routine forms such as purchase orders, expense
reports, or invoices. Forms can then be completed on-
screen. Forms can be printed or distributed using Uni-
plex mail.
Report writer.
Electronic Mail
Uniplex Electronic Mail is an object-oriented mail facility
that allows any type of Uniplex file, ranging from reports
and memos to spreadsheets and complex graphics, to
be mailed. Additional mail features include:
Card Index
The Uniplex Card Index can be used to keep track of
information such as customer names and addresses
when the power of a full relational database is not re-
quired. Fixed fields can be established to simplify Card
Index data entry and retrieval. Up to 17 custom fields
can be created, displayed and sorted.

Uniplex Advanced Graphics
Presentation Graphics
The Uniplex Advanced Graphics (AGS) option, like
AOS, is a companion product to Uniplex II Plus. AGS
provides additional graphic features and functions which
allow the creation of presentation quality graphics. With
AGS, users can create a range of graphics, from sim-
ple bar graphs to sophisticated 3-D area charts and ex-
ploded pie graphs. Fonts can be changed, text size
altered and colors selected. AGS also provides flexi-
ble hardcopy capabilities and support for many printers
including PostScript models.
Automatic forward, reply and notifications
Mail encryption
Batch operations
Uniplex mail can work with any underlying mail system.
However, by default, it uses standard UNIX mail. With
the addition of DECnet-ULTRIX, Uniplex can exchange
mail with VMS and ALL-IN-1 users. Layering ULTRIX
Mail Connection on this allows Uniplex to take full ad-
vantage of Digital’s NAS facilities via the Mailbus.
Presentation Editor
Report Writer
The Uniplex Presentation editor provides additional
tools to allow more extensive editing of graphics. Using
the keyboard, standard graphs produced with Presenta-
tion Graphics can be translated into illustrations and di-
agrams. Presentation Editor enables objects or groups
of objects to be scaled, rotated and copied. A zoom
facility allows users to add fine detail to illustrations.
The Report Writer provides flexible report creation from
any source. Reports allow data calculations, full control
breaks, repeating data for periodic reports, and step-by-
step guidance for report creation.
Personal Organizer
The Personal Organizer of AOS provides a flexible
time manager, calendar and calculator. Calendars can
be viewed monthly, or biweekly with both private and
shared diaries. Alarm reminders, appointment conflict
warnings, time bookings for multiple events and printing
of schedules are some of the scheduling features.
Additional Dictionary Pack
The Additional Dictionary Pack (ADP) provides sup-
port for multiple dictionaries which enables users to
spellcheck documents containing words in various lan-
guages. This facility is useful to multinational corpora-
tions, government bodies and users in countries where
more than one language is commonly in use. The
ADP contains 11 languages: US English, UK English,
French, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Swedish,
Danish, Norwegian, and Canadian French.
Time Manager
The Time Manager allows users to create one or more
personal calendars which display scheduled and open
times. Calendars can be made available to other users
to make appointment scheduling easier. Calendars can
be organized in day or week formats and printed in reg-
ular letter or handy wallet sizes.
