Navix was established in 1988 as Navix Limited. At first Navix specialized in desktop publishing, which, as a technology, was still in its infancy at the time. Our main business was to produce manuals for use outside of Japan. In the spring of 1991 we were one of the first companies in Japan to install and begin using imagesetters. This was a big step in our pioneering effort to establish a total prepress system based on desktop publishing.

Over the years, Navix continously introduced various applications and upgraded equipment to meet the ever changing and growing needs of our customers. In 1992 we introduced UNIX work stations and also began using Adobe FrameMaker®, which has become a major production tool industry wide.

In 1994 after the addition of an A2-size, drum imagesetter we began to output all of our film in-house. In addition, we greatly increased the number of fonts of both Asiatic and Romance languages and began to upgrade production infrastructure to prepare for the eventual output of high-quality, full-color, multilingual materials.

Also in 1994 we expanded geographically with the establishment of Navix Thailand Company, the present N.I.C., in Bangkok, Thailand in cooperation with companies in Singapore and others. This was in response to the migration of manufacturing facilities from Japan to off-shore locations. In December of 2000, Navix Europe Limited, was established in Cardiff, Wales, UK. We consider this office as our first foothold in Europe to support our customers as they expand and we intend to continue development and expansion from there on.

Navix is now in the process of developing systems using SGML and XML to support long-document and multi-document production especially for those customers that produce manuals and other documents in multiple languages and covering simular but varied consumer electronic devices.

Navix continues to stay ahead of the field through its focus on the technology to provide the best products, while keeping in mind the human aspects of foreign language and cultural aspects of information production. Because of this we will continue to advance to meet your needs in the future.
