                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations

Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2000 decreased 15.2% to
$1,851,132 from $2,181,781 for the quarter ended September 30, 1999. U.S.
revenue for the quarter decreased 12.6% and European revenue decreased 3.5%
compared to the prior year first quarter. The decrease in the US revenue was
mainly in the general data conversion service area of the business. Resume
processing remained steady. The company reorganized its business in the US and
Europe to move to an `outsource' business model to overcome capacity limitations
which limited growth and hampered the introduction of more effective workflow
methods. Saztec recently announced that Datamatics Technologies Limited, a
premier information technology and knowledge management provider, based in
Mumbai, India, has increased its investment in Saztec. This recent event will
enable a tighter coupling of the Saztec and Datamatics capabilities to provide
end-to-end knowledge management solutions.

Loss before taxes of $(211,542) increased $167,268 as compared with $(44,274) in
the prior year. U.S. Income before taxes decreased $343,696 to $(286,492), while
Europe Income improved to $74,950 as compared to a loss of $(101,478) for the
period the previous year. Gross profit for the quarter of $277,026 was $269,072
lower and gross margin percentage of 15% was 40% lower than results from the
first quarter of the prior year. Although the headcount was reduced, both in
Europe and the US, other costs were incurred in technology development to aid
the transition process.

Selling and administrative (S&A) expenses for the current year quarter decreased
$127,511 to $451,997 from $579,508 for the same period in the prior year. As a
percentage of revenues, S&A decreased to 24.4% from the 26.6% ratio of the prior
year period.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

At September 30, 2000 the Company had borrowed $541,728 under its revolving
credit agreement which allows for borrowings of $800,000. The revolving credit
agreement provides for interest at the lender's prime rate plus 2.5% (12.00 % at
September 30, 2000). The credit agreement is collateralized by substantially all
domestic assets of the Company, including the stock of subsidiaries. The
revolving credit agreement is intended to be a continuing agreement and shall
remain in full effect for an initial term of one year and for any renewal term
of one year unless terminated by either party within 30 days prior to the end of
any such period. The initial term of the revolving credit agreement was from
June 22, 1999 to June 21, 2000, and was renewed for a one-year period until June
21, 2001. Maximum borrowing under the agreement is limited to 80% of outstanding
domestic accounts receivable less than ninety days old, up to $800,000. The
Company is in compliance with covenants contained in the renewed agreement.

On June 30, 2000 the Company executed a convertible promissory note agreement
with Maida Vale Ltd, a subsidiary owned indirectly by Domain Foundation, a major
shareholder, in the amount of $500,000 payable with interest due on June 29,
2001. The note agreement provides for simple interest at the prime lending rate
plus 2.0%. The note may be converted to shares of Saztec common stock at the
holders request at any time during the term of the note at an exchange rate
calculated at $.50 per share for the outstanding principle and interest at the
time of the conversion. This note along with accumulated interest was converted
into common stock on October 18, 2000. The total amount due and converted was
$517,090.50 or 1,034,181 shares.
