Press Release Body: February 13, 2008, Toronto, ON - ENGINEERING.com [TSXV: EGN] and
Creaform today announced a partnership that will give ENGINEERING.com the right to
distribute Creaform's line of Handyscan 3DT laser scanners to the educational market
in North America.

Creaform's line of Handyscan 3D scanners represents the first portable, accurate and
low cost handheld laser scanners on the market. These scanners help engineers
improve their design and inspection capabilities through the manufacturing process,
making them ideal for use in reverse engineering, inspection and analysis, and the
creation of digital mock-ups.

"Engineering schools throughout North America have been looking for a way to acquire
data from physical products to create 3D models," said John Hayes, President of
ENGINEERING.com. "The Handyscan is the first product we've seen that can fit the
needs and the budgets of engineering schools."

On February 18, 2008, ENGINEERING.com will begin distribution of the Handyscan 3D
scanners through its website at www.ENGINEERING.com and through its sales and
support center. Creaform will be responsible for installation, training and post
sales support.

"We are delighted that ENGINEERING.com will be representing our Handyscan 3D line of
scanners," said Charles Mony, president of Creaform. "Our new scanning module for
CATIA V5 makes this partnership a particularly good fit, since ENGINEERING.com is
the only North American education distributor for CATIA - one of the most important
CAD products in the world."
