Case Study: Computer Technician Eliminates the Expense of Office Productivity with WPS Office Freemium Software


Jeff Easter is a former computer technician based in Pennsylvania who now provides free computer support services to local students. One of the challenges of working with computer users is the need to control costs which can quickly escalate and become too expensive for many people. Easter has always made it his mission to search out the best quality software at the best price for those he supported. The problem is that the while some solutions are full-featured, they are very expensive. Alternately, less expensive offerings are stripped down versions with greatly reduced functionality. WPS Office bridges that gap with a Freemium version of the product that is full-featured and does not impact the budget in any way.

What Is DLNA, and How Can It Help You Lead Meetings?


It’s all about connectivity today—between people and devices. But with so many types of technology speaking different languages, what bridges the gap so that your tools can talk to each other to help you reach your goals of using various devices, both for business and pleasure? Part of the answers lies in DLNA—which stands for Digital Living Network Alliance. DLNA is a type of technology and an organization wrapped in one powerful acronym. Yet while you may have never heard of DLNA, chances are good that you’re affected by it every day as you summon your electronic devices to share content such as video, music and photos with others.

Saving Time with Templates


If time is money, templates are one of the most valuable tools in your mobile arsenal. Templates are simply files that provide you with a blueprint of a layout—for example, of a Word file, slide, or spreadsheet—that you can use as a starting point for your work without reinventing the wheel. A template might contain specific colors, fonts, styles, or even content as part of its theme package. If you’re interested in using templates, one of the best ways to do so is to select an office suite that comes equipped with a wide range of these tools built right into its existing applications.

Modify your locked PDFs into editable docs in a flash


Since PDFs are "read only" documents, they can't be modified without leaving an electronic footprint—so this file format meets the requirements for legal documents in court. In a word, PDFs are very secure. But what if you’re using PDFs for other purposes and need to be able to edit the content that’s on a PDF? Are you stuck rekeying the entire document into an editable file before you can use it? Fortunately, the answer to the latter question is no. It is possible to convert PDF files that contain locked content into editable documents—even on a mobile device—if you use the right tool.

Case Study: Why XSite Studios Chose WPS Office Productivity Suite over Microsoft Office


XSite Studios, a film, TV, and web production company, had reached a level of growth that made it difficult to maintain productive work schedules, as many of the team members did not have the required software to read and edit documents, spreadsheets, or presentations on their Apple iPhones. Having previously used Microsoft Office, the company found the software to be expensive to retain for multiple users and for one-time projects that required several temporary crew members. The company needed a more flexible and efficient office productivity suite that would support the firm’s IT cost containment goals, while providing many of the capabilities required for a growing business whose team spent its time in-house and on the road.

Case Study: Largest Distributor of Marine Products in the Pacific Northwest Has Second Thoughts about Upgrading to Microsoft Office 2003 Due to Cost


Fisheries Supply Company, a family-owned business that opened its doors in 1928 at Pier 55 on Elliott Bay in Seattle, Washington, is today the largest distributor of marine products in the Pacific Northwest. Like all growing companies, it had to carefully balance cost with resources that allow it to operate more efficiently. As the company prepared to upgrade from Microsoft Office 2003, management was reluctant to switch all 100+ employees to Microsoft Office 365 to keep the potentially exorbitant cost down. Dee Todd, Fisheries Supply’s IT administrator, was tasked with finding an alternative, less expensive solution that would perform equally well for the majority of the company’s employees.

PDFs For Security and Signatures


– Author: William Wong, WPS Office Software – Sometimes you want secure files, but other times you absolutely need them. In the case of documentation used in a court of law, many file formats are inadmissible since they are easily altered with no visible electronic footprint. Documents created in Word, for example, are designed for text editing, and someone can easily edit them without leaving an electronic footprint. Same goes for TIFF, JPEG, and GIF file formats. In order to use these formats in court, you’d need to first copy them to a DVD or CD-R, since optical media can’t be changed and are thus legally admissible in court. In order to avoid this extra legwork you can instead use a PDF file, since PDFs are "read only" documents. Here are a few reasons why PDFs are able to offer this high level of security level, as well as some general tips and resources on PDF signatures.

Is Social Media Slang an Evolution in Language?


– Author: Cole Armstrong, WPS Office Software – G2G. BRB. IDK. TTYL. Language purists and others who prefer a more formal approach to communication style—even online—may bristle at these types of terms. But while Internet slang and other forms of word shortening and abbreviation can make you look unprofessional if you use them at work, they may serve an important purpose when used at appropriate times in general communication. While you may not go so far as to believe that commonly used IM and social media slang terms like the ones used above represent an evolution in language, it’s hard to argue the fact that such shortened expressions can improve our communication’s efficiency. Here are a few ways that that such jargon might actually be offering us a better way to exchange information rather than degrading the language: You can make your points faster.

Among the non-self-employed population, the phenomenon of regular employees working at home has ballooned 103 percent since 2005, according to the consulting and research firmGlobalWorkplaceAnalytics.com. In fact, recent statistics from the research firm found that the number of employees in the U.S. who now telecommute at least half the time has reached 3.7 million—nearly 3 percent of the entire workforce. This work-from-home group is also increasing faster than the employee population as a whole, with recent data showing telecommuters growing 5.6 percent compared to 1.9 percent for workers in general year over year. These numbers are even more impressive on a global scale, with International Data Corp estimating that close to 40 percent of the world’s workforce—or 1.3 billion people —now telecommute.
