Crossdown is a professional crossword puzzle
development application. Use it to construct real
crosswords just like the kind which appear in
newspapers and magazines. With Crossdown's many
features, routine tasks and errors are eliminated,
leaving you to concentrate on creating entertaining and
original puzzles. This latest version of Crossdown
includes Crossdown Librarian and Crossdown Cluebank.
Librarian is a crossword puzzle database manager with
which you can group any number of crosswords into
collections for quick browsing, comparison, searching,
duplicating and dozens of other uses. Crossdown
Cluebank is a database for storing crossword puzzle
clues. It is fully integrated with Crossdown, enabling
you to bring up a list of clues to choose from for each
grid entry, or "automatically" clue the entire puzzle
with one click of the mouse. With Crossdown you can
print crosswords in a variety of styles, and export
puzzles in several popular graphic file formats for use
with all word processors and desktop publishing
software. You can deploy fully interactive crosswords
to websites. You can generate puzzles as Adobe PDF
files for distribution among other computer platforms,
including Macintosh systems. You can also generate
standalone puzzle "player" game applications which can
be run and solved on other Windows-based computers.
Crossdown also incorporates a basic solve mode so
puzzle authors can test out their own creations, or
just have a little fun! Crossdown is developed by a
crossword puzzle professional for other crossword
puzzle professionals or serious amateurs. Crossdown
supports all versions of Windows from XP to 95, and has
an indexed, illustrated on-screen Help.
