– multiple publications to automate production

Finnish publisher, Pohjankyrön Media Oy, has chosen Anygraaf for its publishing software needs at all of its publications. The installations will include the Neo publishing system, AProfit ad management system, CProfit sales and distribution system and ePlanner website management system.

The software will be installed at Pohjankyrön’s four newspapers, Kurikka-lehti, Kyrönmaa, Pohjankyrö and Tejuka; it will also be used to produce their monthly entrepreneurial magazine, Pohjalainen Yrittäjä. The newspapers have a combined circulation of about 18.000 and the magazine’s circulation is about 16.000.

Installation is expected to be completed by Q3 of 2011.

Neo

The Neo publishing system is a framework for the control and management of the editorial enterprise. It includes documents, editorial resources, event calendars, ideas, projects, plans and planning tools. Internal archives as well as the Internet can be accessed from within Neo, centralizing and simplifying data searches. Neo addresses the challenges of the publishing industry by providing advanced tools for communication, efficient ways of routing material to multiple publishing channels, instant messaging and a variety of asset classification options.

AProfit

AProfit offers complete functionality for booking, billing and tracking ads. Ad order entry and ad tracking are managed within a system that integrates with asset management and page and edition planning solutions. AProfit delivers time savings and offers customers greater access with capabilities to book ads, submit material and approve proofs via the Internet. AProfit lets users book, track and plan ad placement from one common system.

CProfit

CProfit is a sales and distribution system that allows publications to administer all subscription, delivery and customer information via one interface. It provides semi-automated customer maintenance and all subscription input is guided by default values that can be tailored for each publication’s needs. CProfit integrates with the AProfit ad management suite allowing AProfit to handle all of the billing for subscriptions entered in CProfit.

ePlanner

The ePlanner website management system integrates with the Neo publishing system to automatically build and maintain a publication's website. ePlanner offers a visual interface through which web pages are defined and planned and content is automatically extracted from the Neo system for formatting and placement. Additionally, ePlanner offers tools for article and freestanding comment forums, polls, galleries, archive searches, blogs and multimedia presentations.

ePaper

ePaper will also be installed at each publication; ePaper publishes an exact replica of the printed edition online. Through ePaper, readers can see the paper online exactly as it appeared in print, browse the paper page-by-page then highlight and click on any ad, image or article to view it in full detail. Readers can also perform full text searches, view each page as a PDF and browse section by section.
