| SOLUTIONS FOR PUBLISHERS |
|
| From the very first database-driven publications
to today's content-rich Web sites, Content DSI has been
providing solutions to leading publishers for more than 40
years to address mission-critical challenges, such as: |
|
- Automating production processes
- Streamlining editorial workflow
- Facilitating collaborative authoring
- Supporting cross-media publishing
|
|
|
Content DSI develops solutions based on
the practice of Enterprise Content Management (ECM), which
is commonly used for various applications in the publishing
industry. ECM involves the entire content management process
from content creation to management to delivery. ECM can provide
the ability to collect disparate content into a single source
of information that can then support multiple publications
and output channels, including print/PDF, Web, and CD/DVD.
Content DSI can help specify and integrate the many individual
components of an ECM system, as illustrated in the diagram
below, to best fit our clients' business needs and provide
a unified portal to all of their content assets.

Our Focus on Publishing
Systems
|
| Book
& Journal Publishing Systems |
|
| Publishing books and journals
typically requires the contributions of multiple
authors, editors, and production staff. An ECM
for book & journal publishing can help to
manage this workflow, streamline the production
process, and provide the framework for content
reuse and cross-media publishing. |
|
| Directory
& Database Publishing Systems |
|
| Unlike books & journals,
directory content is typically stored in a highly
consistent relational database format. An ECM
for directory or database publishing can be optimized
to handle this type of information, resulting
in a high level of automation in the production
process and support for tight integration of print,
CD/DVD, and Web delivery. |

| Digital
Asset Management Systems |
|
| Most companies have an array of digital
assets that they have accumulated over time, such as logos,
charts, photos, and even digital audio and video. With the
shift toward digital print production, it is vital that companies
implement and utilize digital asset management software to
efficiently handle the growing surplus of electronic content.
An ECM for digital asset management can provide a central,
organized repository for these objects, enable indexing and
quick retrieval, and support conversion for multiple output
formats, such as generating thumbnails for Web display. We
work with industry-leading technology vendors to provide you
with the optimal tools to organize your content. Proper application
of digital asset management can save your company time, money
and promote new revenue opportunities. |
