Softpress Systems is a software publisher with its headquarters in Oxford, UK. The company was founded in 1993. Originally the developers of a print-publishing application called Uniqorn. Development of Uniqorn ended after Apple discontinued printing support for its QuickDraw GX component.
The company initiated development of Freeway (currently version 5.5) in 1996, a DTP(Desktop publishing)-style website creation program. Freeway is an HTML generator, as opposed to an HTML editor, allowing users to design in similar ways to DTP applications rather than work directly with code. There is a Pro - professional - version and Express version - focused towards home and small business users.
Softpress Systems is managed by Richard Logan (Managing Director), Joe Billings (Product Manager), Stewart Fellows (Technical Director) and Tim Plumb (Creative Director).
