                  SDL plc ADDS ADDITIONAL VALUE TO                  
              SDLWEBFLOW THROUGH INTERWOVEN ALLIANCE                    

SDL plc ("SDL"), one of the world's leading Internet product and globalization
service companies, today announced a strategic alliance with enterprise-class
content management solutions leader Interwoven, Inc. (Nasdaq: IWOV).  The
agreement offers the opportunity to introduce the SDLWebFlow solution to
Interwoven's global clientbase.

The alliance offers SDL the opportunity to integrate its products and services
with Interwoven's open, standards-based content management product, TeamSite. 

SDLWebFlow is designed to allow clients to keep their multilingual web sites
synchronised with the content of the host language web site.  The solution
detects changes on the original site and implements a web-based workflow to
enable rapid and cost-effective updates.  Translation Memory software within
SDLWebFlow is used to prepare files automatically, maximising previous
translation investment and ensuring consistency.

SDL customers will benefit from Interwoven TeamSite software's robust features
including its advanced workflow capabilities, ease of integration and
inclusive content architecture.  Because TeamSite supports all content
creation tools, local development teams can use the tools of their choice. 
TeamSite also provides an environment that supports multiple parallel projects
through separate development "branches" which, in conjunction with SDLWebFlow,
maximizes team efficiency and accelerates time-to-Web.

"This agreement between SDL and Interwoven marks a further increase in the
strength of the SDLWebFlow solution," commented Hedley Rees-Evans, Director of
Web Solutions of SDL.  "By combining with the Interwoven TeamSite product, SDL
will make it even easier for our customers to manage content across language
barriers - a key component for the future of e-commerce."

"Interwoven is delighted to be working closely with SDL to streamline the
management of globalized content," added Doug Mosher, Business Development
Manager at Interwoven.  "By combining the strengths of our two solutions, we
facilitate the rapid and organised delivery of multilingual e-commerce
opportunities in an industry driven by first and best to market."
