[prMac.com] Dorchester, United Kingdom - Kevin Quinn announces Cast Off Calculator for Mac OS X. Cast off calculator is a FilemakerPro runtime application for calculating and generating cast offs, the system used in publishing to specify the number of pages a book or publication will have, as well as the number of pages dedicated to each chapter/section.

Extremely easy to use, cast off calculator makes it simple and quick for book/publication designers to develop layouts, and avoid costly delays in under/over spec layouts.

Features:
* Set fixed pages for prelims, index, individual signatures.
* Vary the number of works per page and/or the number of pictures per page to get the extent you desire.
* See at a glance where your chapters/sections will start and end.
* Print a report to use as you proceed with the layout, recording actual pagination as you go.

Example Minimum Requirements:
* Mac OS X Version 10.4 Tiger or higher
* Universal Binary for PowerPC and Intel
* G4 Processor, 1GHz or faster
* 82.5 MB Hard Drive space

Cast off calculator has been tested on PPC and Intel Macs running Tiger and Leopard.
