Editor Notes
About
Xara
Xara has been developing computer software since 1981, the early
Microcomputer era. It has focused mostly on publishing related
software products, starting from Wordwise, a hugely popular Word
Processor in the '80s, to desktop publishing software (Impression)
and graphics products in the '90s for the Acorn RISC computer.
Xara's first Windows product, Xara Studio, was quickly snapped
up and marketed by Corel in the late '90s as CorelXara. The rights
were acquired back from Corel and it has since evolved into Xara
X and the most recent Xara Xtreme.
Xara
has a particularly strong technology and innovation history. It
pioneered many of the graphics technologies and techniques used
by the industry today. It was the first to introduce vector anti-aliasing,
the first with vector transparency and graduated transparency
and the first with vector feathering. Many of its User Interface
techniques have been adopted by the industry. The graphics engine
that is at the core of Xara Xtreme still remains the world's most
powerful.
In
January, 2007, Xara Ltd was acquired by Magix AG from Berlin,
Germany. The company now operates as a wholly owned subsidiary.
