                                  RISK FACTORS

     Each prospective investor should carefully consider the following factors,
among others, prior to purchasing any of the securities offered hereby.

     History of Operating Losses and Accumulated Deficit; Anticipated Future
Losses; Limited Operating History. The Company incurred a net loss of
$3,748,464 for the year ended March 31, 1997 and a net loss of $852,326 for the
quarter ended June 30, 1997.  The Company had an accumulated deficit of
$4,597,159 at June 30, 1997, and the report issued by the Company's independent
accountants on the Company's financial statements as of and for the year ended
March 31, 1997 contains an explanatory paragraph relating to the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern.  The Company intends to continue to
make expenditures related to new product introductions, marketing, research and
development, regional expansion of its electronic document
warehouse/distribution business and administrative infrastructure over the near
term.  As a result, the Company expects to incur net operating losses through
at least the second fiscal quarter of 1998.

     The likelihood of the Company's success must be considered in light of the
problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently
encountered in connection with the establishment of any business.  There is no
assurance that the Company can operate profitably or that it will successfully
implement its expansion plans.  Additionally, the Company has only a limited
operating history upon which to base an evaluation of its current principal
business and prospects.  Operating results for future periods are subject to
numerous uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that the Company will
achieve or sustain profitability on an annual or quarterly basis.  The
Company's prospects must be considered in light of the risks encountered by
businesses in the early stage of development, particularly businesses in new
and rapidly evolving markets.  Future operating results will depend upon many
factors, including the demand for the Company's products, the level of product
and price competition, the ability of the Company to develop and market new
products and product enhancements, the growth of activity on the Internet, the
World Wide Web and private intranet networks, the success of the Company in
attracting and retaining motivated and qualified personnel, the ability of the
Company to control its costs and general economic conditions.  There can be no
assurance that the Company will be successful in addressing such risks.

     Significant Capital Requirements; Need for Additional Financing.  The
Company's capital requirements in connection with its development and marketing
activities have been and will continue to be significant.  The Company has been
dependent upon the proceeds from sales of its securities, as well as various
private loans, to fund its development and marketing activities.  There can be
no assurance that such additional funding will be available on terms attractive
to the Company, or at all. Any additional equity financings may be dilutive to
shareholders, and additional debt financing, if available, may involve
restrictive covenants.  Collaborative arrangements may require the Company to
relinquish rights to certain of its technologies, products or marketing
territories.  In the event that the proceeds of the offering and cash flow
prove to be insufficient to fund operations (due to a change in the Company's
plans or a change or inaccuracy in its assumptions or as a result of
unanticipated expenses, technical difficulties, problems or otherwise), the
Company would be required to seek additional financing sooner than currently
anticipated.  The Company has no current arrangement with respect to, or
sources of, additional financing.  The inability to obtain additional financing
when needed, would have a material adverse effect on the Company.

     Uncertainty of Future Operating Results; Fluctuations in Future Operating
Results.  Prior growth rates in the Company's revenue and operating results are
not necessarily indicative of future growth, if any, or of future operating
results. The Company's future operating results may vary substantially from
quarter to quarter and will depend on many factors, including the level of
sales of its proprietary software products and continued expansion of the
market for corporate intranets.  At its

                                       3

<PAGE>   5



current stage of operations, the Company's quarterly revenues and results of
operations may be materially affected by the timing of the development,
introduction and market acceptance of the Company's and its competitors'
products.  Product development and marketing costs are often incurred in
periods before any revenues are recognized from the sales of products.
Operating expenses are higher during periods in which such product development
costs are incurred and marketing efforts are commenced.  In addition, the
timing of the Company's receipt of significant contracts could add to quarter
to quarter variation in operating results.  Due to these and other factors,
including the general economy, stock market conditions and announcements by the
Company or its competitors, the market price of the securities offered hereby
may be highly volatile.

     Intense Competition.  The markets for business application software and
computer software generally are intensely competitive.  The Company faces
competition from a variety of software vendors, most of whom have substantially
greater financial, technical and marketing resources than the Company, and many
of the Company's competitors currently marketing products in the document
management market are more established than the Company and have the benefits
of pre-existing relationships with potential customers and greater name
recognition than the Company.  The Company also faces indirect competition from
other systems integrators, value added resellers and traditional commercial
printers. The Company's competitors could introduce products with more features
and lower prices than the Company's products, or which render the Company's
products obsolete.  These companies could also bundle existing or new products
with other more established products in order to compete with the Company.
Although the Company believes its product features and pricing enable it to
compete effectively with respect to such factors, there can be no assurance
that the Company will have the financial resources, technical expertise or
marketing, distribution or support capabilities to compete successfully in the
future.

     Emerging Markets; Dependence Upon Continued Market Expansion.  The
continued expansion of the Company's business is generally dependent on the
continued expansion of the markets for which its products were developed, and
specifically dependent upon the continued growth of activity on the Internet,
the Web and private intranet networks.  The intranet market is a relatively new
market and is intensely competitive, highly fragmented and subject to change.
As such, the Company's success will continue to be dependent upon a
continuation of the trend toward network-based computing environments and the
continued willingness of large businesses to reengineer the processes they
employ to create, store, manage and distribute data.  In addition, the
Company's future success is dependent upon the continued expansion of the
on-demand printing market.  Any factors which have an adverse impact on the
continued expansion of these markets generally could have a material adverse
impact on the Company.

     Management of Rapid Growth.  The Company has experienced rapid growth in
revenues, personnel, research and development activities and the general
expansion of its business.  In addition, the Company's markets have evolved and
continue to evolve at a rapid pace.  The Company believes that continued growth
in the number and breadth of its product lines and services and in its
personnel will be required to maintain its competitive position.   The
Company's growth, coupled with the rapid evolution of its markets, has placed
and will continue to place significant strains on its administrative operations
and financial resources and will increase the demands placed on its internal
systems, procedures and controls. The Company's ability to support, manage and
control its continued growth is also dependent upon, among other things, its
ability to train, supervise and manage increased personnel.  There can be no
assurance that the Company's personnel, procedures, staff, internal controls or
systems will be adequate to support such growth or that management will be able
to achieve the rapid, effective execution of the product and business
initiatives necessary to successfully penetrate the markets for the Company's
products and services.  If the Company is unable to manage future growth
effectively, the Company's business, operating results and financial condition
will be materially adversely affected.


                                       4

<PAGE>   6




     Dependence on Narrow Product Line; Technology Risks; Risk of Market
Acceptance.  To date, the Company has marketed a limited line of its
proprietary software products.  The Company's future success will depend, to a
large extent, on its ability to increase sales from existing products and
derive sales from new products.  There can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to further penetrate the market with its existing products or
introduce and gain acceptance of its new products.  The market for Internet
software products is highly competitive and characterized by rapid innovation
and technological change. The Company's products were specifically designed to
meet the needs of the document management market, but other companies have also
introduced or announced the development of products designed to address the
same markets as the Company's products. In addition, technological advances
that would make the Company's products less attractive to current and potential
customers could adversely impact the business of the Company.  The Company's
plans with respect to the development of new products are subject to the risks
inherent in the development and marketing of complex software products,
including the risks that the release of the product may be delayed, errors may
be found in the product after its release despite extensive testing, and
discovered errors may not be corrected in a timely manner.  Further, the
commercial success of the Company's products will depend on the willingness of
potential customers to perform and accept the use of the Company's products to
create, manage and distribute unstructured business-critical data.

     Dependence on Development of New Products.  The Company's future success
is dependent upon its continued introduction of new software products and its
ability to develop enhancements and upgrades to its existing product line. The
Company devotes significant resources to research and development and believes
it will have sufficient resources to support its research and development
efforts; however, the development of new, technologically advanced products is
a complex and uncertain process requiring high levels of innovation, as well as
the accurate anticipation of technological and market trends.  Delays in the
introduction or shipment of new or enhanced products, the inability of such
products to gain market acceptance or problems associated with new or enhanced
products could adversely affect the Company's operating results.  The market
for the Company's products is characterized by rapidly changing technology,
frequent new product introductions and product enhancement and evolving
industry standards.  The introduction or enhancement of products embodying new
technology or the emergence of new industry standards could render the
Company's current products, or any other products the Company may develop in
the future, obsolete and unmarketable.  The Company's ability to anticipate
changes in technology, products and industry standards and to successfully
develop and introduce new and enhanced products on a timely basis will be a
significant factor in the Company's ability to grow and remain competitive.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in introducing
new products to respond to emerging industry trends, and there can be no
assurance that the level of research and development expenses necessary for the
Company to remain competitive will be as currently anticipated or that the
Company's revenues will be sufficient to cover its research and development
costs.

     Dependence Upon Proprietary Technology; Risk of Infringement. The
Company's success is heavily dependent upon proprietary technology. The Company
has no patents or pending patent applications. In the absence of significant
patent or copyright protection, the Company may be vulnerable to competitors
who attempt to develop functionally equivalent products. Although the Company
believes that it has all rights necessary to market its products without
infringing upon any patents, copyrights or trademarks held by others, there can
be no assurance that conflicting patent, copyright or trademark rights do not
exist.  There can be no assurance that third parties will not claim
infringement by the Company with respect to its current or future products.
The Company expects that software product developers will increasingly be
subject to infringement claims as the number of products and competitors in the
Company's industry segment grows and the functionality of products in different
industry segments overlaps.  Any such claims, with or without merit, could be
time-consuming, result in costly litigation, cause product shipment delays or
require the Company to enter into royalty or licensing agreements.  Such
royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms

                                       5

<PAGE>   7



acceptable to the Company or at all, which would have a material adverse effect
upon the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.  The
Company relies upon trade secret protection, confidentiality procedures and
contractual provisions to protect its proprietary information.  There can be no
assurance that others will not independently develop substantially equivalent
proprietary information and techniques or otherwise gain access to the
Company's trade secrets or disclose such technology, or that the Company can
meaningfully protect its trade secrets. The Company has applied for trademark
registration for the following marks: Intra.doc!(TM) , INTRANET SOLUTIONS,
DOCUMENT REFINERY, WEB REFINERY, and WEB VAULT.  There can be no assurance that
any trademarks which have been applied for but are not yet issued will be
issued.  In the absence of trademark protection, the Company may be unable to
take advantage of the brand name recognition it is attempting to build.
Further, even if all trademarks applied for are issued, there can be no
assurance that such trademarks will prove valuable to the Company.

     Dependence Upon Key Vendor Relationships.  The Company is materially
dependent on Sun Microsystems, Inc. and Interleaf, Inc. for the supply of the
hardware and non-proprietary software products sold as part of its systems. Any
disruption in the relationship between the Company and either of Sun
Microsystems, Inc. or Interleaf, Inc. would have an immediate and material
adverse impact on the Company.  Although the Company believes that secondary
sources are currently available for similar hardware products, there can be no
assurance that suitable alternative vendor relationships could be established
in a timely manner, if at all. The Company purchased approximately 54%, 68% and
67% of its total product resale requirements from Sun Microsystems, Inc.  in
each of the fiscal years ended 1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively.

     Dependence on Key Personnel; Need for Additional Employees.  The Company
is currently greatly dependent on the personal knowledge and experience of
Messrs. Olson, Sippl and Sjobeck.  The Company believes that its senior
management team has knowledge which, due to the Company's relatively small
size, is personal to such individuals and has not been institutionalized.  As
such, the loss of any of these key personnel could be detrimental to the
Company. There can be no assurance that the loss of the services of Mr. Olson
or any of its executive officers or other key employees would not have a
material adverse effect on the Company. To avoid the negative impact which the
loss of a senior manager could have on the Company, as well as to achieve its
business plan, the Company must hire additional employees at various
operational levels.  The future development and success of the Company will
depend in part upon its ability to attract and retain additional personnel with
the highly specialized expertise necessary to provide, engineer, design and
support the integration of such products and services. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to attract or retain such personnel or
that the hiring and retention of such personnel will result in the
institutionalization of vital information.

     Product Defects and Product Liability.  The Company's software products
are complex and sophisticated and could from time to time contain design
defects or software errors that could be difficult to detect and correct.
Errors, bugs or viruses may result in the loss of or the delay in market
acceptance or the loss of customer data.  The Company's license agreements with
its customers typically contain provisions designed to limit the Company's
exposure to potential product liability claims; however, it is possible that
the limitation of liability provisions contained in the Company's license
agreements may not be effective under the laws of certain jurisdictions.
Although the Company has not experienced any material adverse effect resulting
from any software defects or errors, there can be no assurance that despite
testing by the Company and its customers, errors will not be found in new
products which could result in a delay or an inability to achieve market
acceptance and thus could have a material adverse impact upon the Company's
business, operating results or financial condition.

     Former Shareholder Lien.  On July 31, 1995, Technical Publishing
Solutions, Inc., a predecessor in interest to the Company ("TPSI") redeemed 50
percent of the outstanding shares of its common stock from a former shareholder
and director for an aggregate redemption price of $200,000.  TPSI paid

$150,000 of the purchase price in cash and delivered a the balance of the
redemption price in the form of a promissory note with a face amount of
$50,000. The note requires annual principal payments of approximately $10,000
and matures in August 2000.  TPSI and the former shareholder also entered into
consulting and non-competition agreements pursuant to which the Company is
obligated to make payments of $10,000 per month through August 2000. To secure
the purchase price of the redeemed shares and TPSI's monetary obligations under
the aforementioned agreements, TPSI granted the former shareholder a security
interest in the redeemed shares.  As a result of the 1996 merger of TPSI with
and into the Company, the Company succeeded to the obligations of TPSI under
these agreements.  In the event the Company fails to satisfy its monetary
obligations under these agreements, the former shareholder may be able to
assert a claim of ownership interest in the Company.  If the former shareholder
is successful in this regard, the value of the shares of Common Stock may be
reduced substantially.

     Control by Founder.  Mr. Robert F. Olson, the Company's President and
Chief Executive Officer, holds approximately 52 percent of the Company's
outstanding Common Stock and will hold approximately 50 percent of the
Company's Common Stock upon the exercise of the Warrants.  As such, Mr. Olson
is able to exercise control over the business policies and affairs of the
Company. Additionally, directors, executive officers and principal shareholders
of the Company, and certain of their affiliates, will beneficially own
approximately 60 percent of the Company's outstanding Common Stock upon the
exercise of the Warrants.  Accordingly, these persons, individually and as a
group, effectively control the Company and can direct its affairs and business,
including all determinations with respect to the acquisition or disposition of
assets by the Company, future issuances of Common Stock or other securities by
the Company, and any dividends payable on the Common Stock.  Such concentration
of ownership may also have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a
change in control of the Company.

   
     Effects of Delisting from Nasdaq SmallCap Market; Lack of Liquidity of Low
Priced Stocks. If the Company fails to maintain the qualification for its
Common Stock to trade on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market, its securities
could be subject to delisting.  The Nasdaq Stock Market recently announced
increases in the quantitative standards for maintenance of listings on The
Nasdaq SmallCap Market.  The revised standards for continued listing, which
will be applied beginning in February, 1998, include maintenance of any of (x)
$2,000,000 of net tangible assets, (y) $35,000,000 of market capitalization or
(z) $500,000 of net income for two of the last three years and the elimination
of the requirements to maintain minimum total assets and a minimum capital and
surplus.  In the event the Company is unable to satisfy the continued listing
requirements, trading, if any, in the Common Stock would thereafter be
conducted in the over-the-counter markets in the so-called "pink sheets" or the
National Association of Securities Dealer's "Electronic Bulletin Board."
Consequently, the liquidity of the Company's Common Stock would likely be
impaired, not only in the number of shares which could be bought and sold, but
also through delays in the timing of the transactions, reduction in security
analysts' and the news media's coverage if any, of the Company and lower prices
for the Company's securities than might otherwise prevail.
    
        
     In addition, if the Company's securities were to become delisted from
trading on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market and the trading price of such securities
were to fall below $5.00 per share, trading in such securities would also be
subject to the requirements of certain rules promulgated under the Exchange
Act, which require additional disclosure by broker-dealers in connection with
any trades involving a stock defined as a penny stock (generally, any
non-Nasdaq equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per
share, subject to certain exceptions).  Such rules require the delivery, prior
to any penny stock transaction, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny
stock market and the risks associated therewith, and impose various sales
practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell penny stock to persons other
than established customers and accredited investors (generally institutions).
For these types of transactions, the broker-dealer must make a special
suitability determination for the purchase and have received the purchaser's
written consent to the transaction prior to the sale.  The additional burdens
imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements may discourage broker-dealers
from effecting transactions in the Common Stock which could severely limit the
market liquidity of such

Common Stock and the ability of purchasers in this offering to sell their
shares of Common Stock in the secondary market.

   
    

     Demand and Incidental Registration Rights.  Certain shareholders and
warrant holders of the Company, including Robert F. Olson, have the right,
subject to certain conditions, to participate in future registrations of the
Company's equity securities or to demand that the Company register up to
approximately 4.9 million shares of Common Stock owned by them as of the date
of this Prospectus. Pursuant to these registration rights, if the Company
proposes to register any of its Common Stock, other than in certain specified
instances, either on its own behalf or for the account of others, such holders
are entitled to notice of such proposed registration and must be given the
opportunity to participate therein.  These demand and incidental registration
rights are subject to certain terms and limitations.  All such holders have
waived their registration rights with respect to this offering.

     Absence of Dividends.  The Company has never paid cash dividends on its
Common Stock and does not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable
future.  Moreover, the Company is prohibited from paying any cash dividends
under the terms of its existing credit agreement.

     Shares Eligible for Future Sale.  Assuming the exercise of all the
Warrants, approximately 8,044,000 shares of Common Stock will be outstanding.
Of the shares outstanding after this offering, approximately 3.8 million shares
of Common Stock will be freely tradable by persons who are not affiliates of
the Company and 4.2 million shares will be eligible for public sale under Rule
144, subject in certain cases to volume and manner of sale limitations.  The
Company may issue up to an additional 692,993 shares of Common Stock under its
employee stock option plan. The Company may issue additional options, warrants,
or equity securities in the future.  The sale, or availability for sale, of
substantial amounts of Common Stock in the public market subsequent to this
offering, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect
the prevailing market price of the Common Stock and could impair the Company's
ability to raise additional capital through the sale of its equity securities.

     Volatility of Stock Price.  The market prices of the Company's securities
have experienced and may continue to experience substantial volatility.  The
securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and
volume fluctuations that may be unrelated to the operating performance of
particular companies.  The market prices of the common stock of many publicly
traded technology companies have in the past been, and in the future are
expected to be, especially volatile.  Announcements of technological
innovations or new products by the Company or its competitors, developments or
disputes concerning patents or proprietary rights, and economic and other
external factors, as well as period-to-period fluctuations in the Company's
financial results, may have a significant impact on the market price of the
Common Stock.

     Convertible Preferred Stock.  During July 1997, the Company issued and
sold, for gross proceeds of $4,000,000, an aggregate of 800,000 units (the
"Units"), each Unit consisting of one share of 5 percent convertible preferred
stock with a liquidation preference of $5.00 per share (the "Preferred Stock")
and a warrant to purchase one share of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise
price of $5.18 per share (the "Warrants").  The Preferred Stock is convertible
into shares of Common Stock at the rate of 75 percent of the average closing
bid price thereof for the five-day trading period immediately preceding the
date of conversion, subject to maximum and minimum conversion rates of $3.7125
and $1.00 per share, respectively.  In the event that the average closing bid
price of the Company's Common Stock falls to or below $1.33 per share for a
five-day trading period, holders of the Preferred Stock could cause the
Company to issue up to 4,000,000 shares of its Common Stock upon the conversion
of same, all of which, together with shares of Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of the Warrants, are subject to demand and incidental registration
rights granted to purchasers of the Units.

     Possible Issuances of Preferred Stock; Anti-Takeover Effect of Minnesota
Law. Pursuant to the Company's Articles of Incorporation, the Company's
shareholders do not have the right to cumulative voting in the election of
directors.  In addition, the Board of Directors has authority to fix the
rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions, including voting rights, of
unissued shares of the Company's

                                       8

capital stock and to issue such stock without any further vote or action by the
shareholders.  The rights of the holders of Common Stock will be subject to,
and may be adversely  affected by, the rights of the holders of any preferred
stock that may be created and issued in the future.  The issuance of preferred
stock could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in
control of the Company.  In addition, certain provisions of Minnesota law
applicable to the Company could have the effect of discouraging certain
attempts to acquire the Company, which could deprive the Company's shareholders
of opportunities to sell their shares of Common Stock at prices higher than
prevailing market prices and may also have a depressive effect on the market
price of the Company's Common Stock.

   
     Note Receivable in Default.  The Company has a note receivable arising
from the sale of the MacGregor trademark with an outstanding balance of $570,000
due from Hutch USA, Inc. (Hutch).  The entire amount of this note is due and
in arrears.  The Company commenced an action against Hutch on July 26, 1997 and
received a judgment against Hutch on August 22, 1997.  On August 29, 1997, the
parent company of Hutch,  RDM Sports Group, Inc., filed a voluntary petition
for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the United States Bankruptcy Court, Northern
District of Georgia.
    

   
     The Company is currently exploring its options with respect to the
satisfaction of the note.  These options include, but are not limited to,  1)
petitioning the bankruptcy court to obtain the MacGregor trademark back from
Hutch and sell it to a third party in satisfaction of the judgment,  2)
obtaining reimbursement from the indemnification escrow provided by the terms
of the merger agreement, and 3) pursuing collection through the bankruptcy
court.
    
        
                                USE OF PROCEEDS

     The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Common
Stock by the Selling Shareholders.

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

        The Company is governed by Minnesota Statutes Chapter 302A. Minnesota
Statutes Section 302A.521 provides that a corporation shall indemnify any
person made or threatened to be made a party to any proceeding by reason of the
former or present official capacity of such person against judgments,
penalties, fines, including, without limitation, excise taxes assessed against
such person with respect to an employee benefit plan, settlements, and
reasonable expenses, including attorney's fees and disbursements, incurred by
such person in connection with the proceeding, if, with respect to the acts or
omissions of such person complained of in the proceeding, such person has not
been indemnified by another organization or employee benefit plan for the same
expenses with respect to the same acts or omissions; acted in good faith;
received no improper personal benefit and Section 302A.255, if applicable, has
been satisfied; in the case of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause
to believe the conduct was unlawful; and in the case of acts or omissions by
persons in their official capacity for the corporation, reasonably believed
that the conduct was in the best interests of the corporation, or in the case
of acts or omissions by persons in their capacity for other organizations,
reasonably believed that the conduct was not opposed to the best interests of
the corporation. Subdivision 4 of Section 302A.521 of the Minnesota Statutes
provides that a company's articles of incorporation or bylaws may prohibit such
indemnification or place limits upon the same. The Company's articles and
bylaws do not include any such prohibition or limitation. As a result, the
Company is bound by the indemnification provisions set forth in Section
302A.521 of the Minnesota Statutes.

        As permitted by Section 302A.251 of the Minnesota Statutes, the
Articles of Incorporation of the Company provide that a director shall have no
personal liability to the Company and its shareholders for breach of his
fiduciary duty as a director, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
