The database publishing process for print material files

Product management

The Catalogger software package has two components: a product database and a publication facility. You can manage all texts and images for your entire range of products in the central product database (Catalogger), in several different languages if necessary. Use Catalogger to copy, move, select, structure and translate your information, plus so much more.

Publication

Catalogger's publication section establishes layout definitions for your publications. You can choose from several different templates, thereby automating the entire layout work process.

Design

Catalogger lets you select the desired information and generate files from the database that you can then open in design programmes such as Adobe InDesign or Adobe FrameMaker. These files are already fully laid-out on creation and include a table of contents, indexes, etc. And if needed, you can always go back and add elements. Once generated, your catalogue, price list or other type of publication is ready for you to print, to be delivered to your printer or to be distributed electronically as a PDF file. It doesn't get any easier!

Websites

Are you also looking for a convenient way to keep your website up-to-date at the same time? Then Guidance has the answer, with its Stentor software package. You use the same Catalogger database to publish your product range to the web with a single click of your mouse.
