DAYTON, OH, May 03, 2004 - LexisNexis® U.S., a leading provider of legal, news and business information services, today launched HotDocs® 6.2, the latest desktop version of its popular document automation software.
HotDocs 6.2 includes several enhanced features to improve the productivity of document template developers and the user interface. New scripting commands and template navigation tools make for effortless template development while enhanced template interview options enhance document assembly for even the most complicated documents.
HotDocs 6.2 will include two new utilities to enhance document automation. The HotDocs Template Conversion utility makes it simple to upgrade entire libraries of templates from previous versions of HotDocs, or to convert word-processor-based templates to the faster RTF format.

In addition, HotDocs 6.2 customers may also purchase the new HotDocs Markup Utility. This optional utility facilitates document markup and content development by content or subject matter experts within a firm and improves document markup capabilities from clients.
