Wacom Intuos4 Pen Tablets Overview - Intuos 4 New Features
Here are more details on the new features of the Wacom Intuos4 Pen Tablets that have just been released .
Vancouver, WA - Jan. 9, 2006 - Wacom Technology Corporation's new Intuos3 12x19 pen tablet is specifically designed for photographers, designers, artists and engineers who are using multiple large monitors or a large widescreen display such as the 30" Apple Cinema HD display.
Like the recently introduced Intuos3 6x11, the Intuos3 12x19 features an active area with an aspect ratio (height-to-width) that is a great match to the screen aspect ratio of either a widescreen display or standard displays used together. This provides optimal pen control and efficient use of the entire tablet.
Industrial Elegance, Powerful Features
The satin-gray finish of the Intuos3 12x19 gives it an "industrial" look that suits its no-nonsense brawn. With physical dimensions of about 17" x 24" and an active area of 228 square inches, the 12x19 delivers a lot of tablet for the suggested retail price (SRP) of $779.95. It includes all the features that have made the Intuos3 line of pen tablets the de facto standard for serious photographers, designers and artists. These features include a patented cordless, battery-free Grip Pen for comfort, 1,024 levels of pressure sensitivity for control, programmable ExpressKeys™ for easy modifier keystrokes and keyboard shortcuts, and finger-sensitive Touch Strips for scrolling, zooming, controlling brush size and more. The Intuos3 12x19 also includes a unique feature for extra-fast navigation.
The Power of Wide
"Building on the popularity of the recently launched Intuos3 6x11, Wacom's new Intuos3 12x19 provides a powerful option for our professional customers who are using large widescreen displays or multiple monitors," said Michael Marcum, Wacom's Director of Product Management. "With all the wide-format motion graphics being created and up to half of the creative community soon using widescreens and multiple monitors, professionals will find that these new tablets are an important complement to their evolving display environment." High-Precision Partner for the Wacom Cintiq 21UX Like the Intuos3 6x11, using the new Intuos3 12x19 with the Cintiq 21UX lets users navigate seamlessly across multiple monitors (including the Cintiq) with a single pen. -more-
Wide Intuos3 for Large Widescreen Displays
In this environment, the Intuos3 12x19 is the best Cintiq companion for professionals who need maximum precision on all monitors. The Wacom Cintiq 21UX interactive pen display combines the advantages of an LCD monitor with the control, comfort, and productivity of Wacom's most sophisticated patented cordless, battery-free tablet technology. Users report that working with the pen directly on the screen yields significant productivity gains.
Square for Specific Needs
Also being announced on January 9th will be the Intuos3 12x12 ($579.95 SRP) to meet a mix of specialized needs, the most obvious of which are those of certain segments of the computer-aided design (CAD) market. Many CAD professionals find that this square size ideally meets their needs and they particularly appreciate the ability to insert templates under the translucent overlay for digitizing. The Intuos3 12x12 will include all of the advanced features offered by the other Intuos3 models plus the fast navigation capabilities of the 12x19. Of special interest to users for whom precision is paramount, all Intuos3 tablets now are built using enhanced electronics for twice the resolution (5,080 lpi) of previous Intuos models (Intuos and Intuos2).
Important Accessories
The new patented cordless, battery-free Intuos3 Lens Cursor ($69.95 SRP), also being announced on January 9th, features five programmable buttons and an adjustable crosshair for ultra-precise work on the Intuos3 12x19 or 12x12. It is an ideal tool for CAD professionals and anyone doing highly detailed digitizing (such as civil engineers, urban planners, and geologists). For artists and illustrators, Wacom's 6D Art Pen ($69.95 SRP) is an ideal choice for use on all Intuos3 pen tablets to generate free-flowing brush strokes. The 6D Art Pen actually provides six dimensions of pen control to deliver a wonderful natural media experience in a digital environment.
Leading graphics applications such as Adobe Photoshop CS2, Adobe Illustrator CS2, and Corel Painter IX include advanced capabilities that can only be fully experienced with a 6D Art Pen.

SiteGrinder 2 - Photoshop Plugin
There often seems to be a strict division of labor within the world of web design and development. Creative professionals tend to stick to the Photoshop domain, while those well-versed in scripting are left to the task of implementing their work. Indeed, the two realms are quite different from each other, to which any of us even vaguely familiar with either can easily attest.
Essentially, Photoshop is a no-holds-barred design studio, offering the artist a seemingly endless array of creative options. On the other hand, HTML, CSS, Java and the like follow strict rules of engagement, requiring the developer to take any number of esoteric concerns into consideration in order to ensure that designs are properly displayed on the web.
Turn Photoshop Into A Complete Web Design Tool
SiteGrinder 2 seeks to bridge this gap between design and development. Basically, this program turns Photoshop into an easy-to-use and fully functional web design tool. With SiteGrinder 2, designers will now have the freedom to totally let their creativity loose and then, without skipping a beat, transfer their designs to the web. Bringing esthetic concerns together with more practical considerations, this program is an amazingly powerful tool that would make a fantastic addition to any web designer's bag of tricks.
Generate Your Web Pages Directly From Photoshop
By generating web pages directly from Photoshop, you'll be able to spend much more time on the creative end of the spectrum, since you'll know right off the bat how well particular designs will translate to the web. No more going back to the Photoshop drawing board after getting a phone call from your development team, telling you that what you had envisioned doesn't have a chance of being displayed on the web. You can immediately visually and interactively test your designs, which permits you to then make changes to either esthetics or functions while it's still relatively early on in the design process.
Pricing and Availability
Mac OS X and Windows versions of the SiteGrinder unlockable demo are available now via download. SiteGrinder 2 can be ordered from Media Lab's online store.
