MarkStein Publisher Workgroup Edition is aimed at teams working together on a publication. The software is ideal for publishers, companies and organizations to collaboratively create magazines, flyers and brochures. Layout and text can be edited by different people in different locations. The exchange takes place via a shared cloud memory such as Dropbox, Drive or iCloud. Pages, texts and images each have a status, so you always know in which state your project is. The results are error-free publications that you can print or send as PDFs. As an extra feature, we have integrated an interface to PressMatrix, which allows you to create your own ePaper and apps quickly and cost-effectively.

What the Workgroup Edition offers
MarkStein Publisher Workgroup Edition incorporates the experience of more than 30 years of working with editors and authors. We have created a compact and affordable system to produce magazines, digital magazines, brochures and flyers quickly and elegantly in a workgroup. Layout and text are separated from each other and can be edited at different locations via the cloud. The workflow is ensured by three status each for pages, texts and images, so that you effectively avoid mistakes. Each text is unique in the system, and versions cannot be mixed up. You can output the finished publication as a PDF for the print shop or publish it as a PDF or e-book. A further exclusive feature is the output as ePaper and App with the solution from PressMatrix.
