The PAD File (Portable Application Description) was invented by the ASP (Association of Shareware Professionals).

It represents a highly efficient way for software developers to submit their software to the various software repository sites around the world.

More than that, it allows the websites to automatically update the information by checking the pad files every so often.

This represents a huge opportunity for all developers to spend all their precious time doing what they are supposed to do (which is, obviously, create quality software) and have the marketing be done in a fast and easy manner.

PlusPAD is a FREE application offered by Olvio IT to the software development community. You will find it easy to use, flexible and appealing. And most important, it will get the things done!

Stop wasting time submitting your software manually. Use the PAD file! To find more information on the PAD file, please log in to the pad file website at
