In the good ol days (over 5 years ago), the first task of any new business was to print business cards and letterhead.

Suddenly preprinted letterhead became not only a cost, but a work-flow impediment.

Documents created with a computer were much more efficiently handled in the digital world as email attachments. It required extra steps to print hard copies on letterhead, then scan and email.

Instead of using paper pre-printed with logo and name/address/phone, we created files in word processing or spreadsheet formats which already contained this data, then reused these forms as templates for new documents.

Some of us accomplish the same thing by saving headers and footers, then applying them to new documents.

Take it to the next step...

Most companies use many different forms. Some even create new designs on the fly, and so there has emerged a new level of forms management which allows for loading of specific modules or components into documents as required.

Software which offers this new level of functioning is called Lightning Navigator.

Using a simple interface, you pre-load document components such as logos, text or formatting - even entire forms - into the Lightning Navigator setup screen.

Later, when you need these document components, you invoke them by pressing hotkeys you have selected for easy recall.

Need a logo? Press the hotkeys and paste it into your document.

Need boilerplate text? Need name/address/phone? Need how-to-find-us? Need business hours? Need answers to FAQs? Need project information? Need to store passwords? Product keys? Access codes?

All possible. All extremely easy.

Good for techies, too...

Web developers and web-marketers enjoy the ease with which they can store snippets of HTML, Javascript, links or keyword phrases into the versatile Lightning Navigator memory.

Any stored item can be invoked simply by pressing hotkeys. Usually the stored data loads into the clipboard for easy pasting.

You won even miss your letterhead.
