The print publishing industry is not doing too well.We will concentrate on Companies that print magazines here.Their sources of revenues are SALES and ADVERTISING.Sales are dropping, and Advertising doesn’t pay as much as it used to.Why is that?

Print Publishing Industry is not doing too well
weak economy shift to digital
lunedì 4 marzo 13
Mainly, two reasons: • we live in times of weak economy• we are witnessing a shift to the digital world both by customers and the advertising industry
There's little we can do about the weak economy, and it would be hard to stop the digital shift...

We should be interested in what people do with their mobile devices, and especially with tablets, since a magazine is more likely read on a tablet.(And anyway in a few years time we wouldn't even know the difference between the two.)
Those numbers tells us: people owning a tablet are willing to spend money to read digital magazines.
So what can a Company that print magazines do?

two things:1. cut costs, optimizing their workflow, to avoid work that is still done by hand2. go digital. To do that they need some smart people who know their way around technology, and possibly a CMS with multichannel capabilities. Does that sound familiar?

Now, let’s say this is the designer who works at Fake Magazine. Using Adobe InDesign he creates the layout for the magazine sections. He works on space occupation for contents provided by editors. He also inputs those contents into InDesign.

When he thinks he is done, he is not: some changes comes along from the editors. In a word document.So he need to do some copy and paste. But then another change is requested, and another one, and another one, just before the magazine goes to print.

What if there was a way to get the content out of InDesign, place it into a common Content Repository, where editors could access it to make changes, and, once changes are over, put content back into InDesign? This way, designers could concentrate on the creative work.

and what if the common repository was a Content Management System with Multichannel capabilities?Like eZ Publish?That is what OpenMagazine does: it connects InDesign with eZ Publish.

How? Roughly: InDesign gives you the ability to tag content. This tagging feature allows Open Magazine to map InDesign content into eZ Publish content. For example, if an article is made up of Image-Title-Abstract-Text, those become attributes of an Article object inside eZ Publish.
STYLES AND FORMATTING ARE PRESERVED!!!

Now, it's not like you plug it in and you can sit and relax while it saves money for you. There is some work to be done before even plugging it in.The workflow needs to be analyzed before knowing if Open Magazine can be of any help.

Open Magazine will need some setup time (during which InDesign templates are analyzed and standardized). It will then help saving time on some steps, while on others it will not add any value to the process.
And, since the content is managed inside eZ Publish, the client can exploit its multichannel capabilities and serve the content to a variety of channels and media.

Let’s talk R.O.I.
❖ Resource optimization❖ Content flow automation❖ InDesign licenses?❖ More channels = more potential reach

So where are the advantages?• Resource optimization: everybody does what they do best• Content flow automation: no more copy/paste• Or maybe editors use InDesign to edit content: if it is like that, money is saved on InDesign license, since all the editing is done inside eZ Publish.• More Media: more potential reach.

IMPACT depends on publication type
Economies of scale more magazinesmore efficient startup
lunedì 4 marzo 13
The impact of Open Magazine depends on the type of publications: there are cases where standardization of templates is easy, others where it's simply impossible.
Also, you can have economies of scale getting into the picture, for those clients that manages a large number of magazines: the setup phase can be more efficient.

Open Magazine can leverage collaboration.

Open Magazine is a project rather than a product: it is extremely flexible and adaptable to the need of every client. In our experience we have seen so many different workflows that it cannot be otherwise.Clients might need to slightly change their workflow in order to optimize it. If they are not willing to do that, then Open Magazine is not for them.
If you think Open Magazine can add value to one of your projects, and if you need help with it, maybe we can do business together. By that we mean a collaboration that gives benefits to all the parts involved.
