Microsoft Vizact

Microsoft Vizact 2000 is a discontinued program that allowed creation of interactive documents using HTML+TIME, adding effects such as animation. It allowed users to create dynamic documents for the Web. It was preceded by Liquid Motion. Vizact 2000 was "the first document activation application" according to Microsoft. Development of Vizact 2000 was ended due to unpopularity and was discontinued on April 1, 2000.

Features of Vizact 2000 included:


 * See a visual representation of the items in user's document that change over time.
 * Interactive bullets condense blocks of text, reducing the amount of information readers see initially.
 * Create documents that address multiple audiences but don't confuse individual readers.
 * Access templates to get started quickly, then modify them to fit user's needs.
 * Choose from 30 professionally designed effects to help user communicate better and impress user's audience.

Therefore, running it on Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows 2000 SP1 or reinstalling the Microsoft Java Virtual Machine is required in order for the software to run.
