                DOCUMENT SCIENCES ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER RESULTS

    CARLSBAD, Calif., Nov. 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Document Sciences
Corporation (Nasdaq: DOCX), a global leader in providing customer communications
management solutions, today reported revenues of $8.4 million for the quarter
ended September 30, 2006, an increase of 13% over revenues of $7.4 million for
the quarter ended September 30, 2005. Net income for the quarter ended September
30, 2006, was $115,000 compared with a net loss of $69,000 for the quarter ended
September 30, 2005. Net income per share for the quarter ended September 30,
2006, was $0.02 based on 5,324,126 diluted shares outstanding, compared with net
loss per share of $0.02, based on 4,158,371 diluted shares outstanding for the
quarter ended September 30, 2005.

    For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, revenues were $24.6 million,
compared with revenues of $21.6 million for the same period in 2005,
representing an increase of 14%. For the nine months ending September 30, 2006,
the company reported a net loss of $199,000, or $0.05 per share based on
4,250,690 shares outstanding, compared with a net loss of $326,000, or $0.08 per
share based on 4,128,384 shares outstanding, for the nine months ending
September 30, 2005.

    Jack McGannon, Document Sciences' President and CEO, stated that "this
quarter represented the best quarter of the year for the company in terms of
license bookings. Due to our revenue recognition policy, a significant amount of
these bookings were not recognized to revenue during the quarter but have
contributed to the noteworthy growth in our deferred revenue. However, we were
still able to achieve our ninth consecutive quarter of year-over-year quarterly
revenue growth."

    McGannon further stated that "the Company's balance sheet strengthened
during the quarter. Our cash and short-term investments balances of $6.9 million
at September 30, 2006, while down by $971,000 from year end balances due to
typical seasonality, were nearly $700,000 higher than the third quarter of 2005.
Our accounts receivable balance continues to grow in concert with the licensing
of our products and the execution of professional services contracts and is up
by nearly $4.3 million since the end of last year. Deferred revenue remains
significant, with a balance of approximately $16.7 million at the end of the
third quarter. Increases were recorded in accounts receivable and deferred
revenue resulting from our normal invoicing for the renewal of annual license
and maintenance fees for customers whose contracts expire at year-end.
Additionally, these two accounts grew with the signing of two license agreements
totaling approximately $2.5 million, for which revenue will be recognized over
the respective term of the arrangement."

    Also included in expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2006 are $155,000 and $364,000, respectively, of stock-based compensation
expenses, including $36,000 and $128,000, respectively, resulting from the
adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004),
Share-Based Payment.
