Fred Jones Manufacturing Integrates State-of-the-Art Imaging and Workflow
System With Modern Manufacturing Technologies

SAN FRANCISCO, CA., April 10, 1995--Optika Imaging Systems, a global leader
in high-performance, client/server document imaging, workflow systems and
development tools, today announced that one of its premiere installations
was awarded the Gold Award for Imaging Excellence by BIS Strategic
Decisions at the firm's annual AIIM Show breakfast and awards
presentation. This award is the most coveted in the imaging industry.

Fred Jones Manufacturing, based in Oklahoma City, is being recognized by
BIS, a leading market research firm, as a user organization that has
successfully implemented document, imaging and workflow technology to meet
strategic business and organizational objectives. Fred Jones Manufacturing
teamed with GlobalData, an Oklahoma city-based systems integrator to
implement the Optika imaging system.

"Fred Jones Manufacturing has taken the slogan " Quality is Job One!" to
heart with the installation of a document management system to enhance its
production process," said Ellen Rome, Optika's vice president of
marketing.

Fred Jones uses Optika's family of FilePower document imaging and workflow
products to ensure that instant access to on-line uniform documents is
provided to the production floor worker, greatly assisting in the
re-manufacturing process. The system has been fully integrated with their
new state-of-the-art manufacturing facility, giving Fred Jones
unprecedented flexibility in their production process, making the company
a true technology innovator.

"Fred Jones' successful implementation of a document management system that
revolutionized the way the company works was impressive enough for BIS to
select it as a finalist from a highly competitive field of qualified
candidates," said Connie Moore, director of document and image management
strategies for BIS Strategic Decisions.

Located in Oklahoma City, Fred Jones is the largest supplier of Ford Motor
Company's re-manufactured transmissions. The company has over 1,000
