Newspapers
Newspapers, magazines and web sites are different types
of publications, but they have a lot in common: All
strive to present information as quickly, efficiently
and attractively as possible. Teambase is software
designed to help groups collaborate on publications of
all types. Teambase can be used to streamline
production at a weekly newspaper with a staff of 45, a
national news magazine with a staff of 450, a retailer
that sells in print and on the web, or a publication
like yours — one with its own special needs and
priorities.
Teambase gives
editors and writers professional-strength tools. Powerful
features greatly extend the standard functions of Microsoft Word.
An easily customized user interface lets you strip Word down to its
bare essentials, or give select users access to the most powerful
tools and features. Editors can view exact line ends, hyphenations,
column turns, page breaks, widows and other text attributes, as
determined by QuarkXPress, directly in Microsoft Word. While
working within Word, writers and editors can make text exactly fit
the page geometry. |
For Example:
Editors can write captions and headlines while viewing
the images and other elements on the page, without
blocking access to the page, which may be needed in
production. Teambase accomplishes this by granting
permission to content (such as stories or pictures)
separately from their containers (such as boxes on a
QuarkXPress page). There is no limit to the number
of people who can collaborate on a single page as the
parts come together on deadline. Non-printing
text, including Word's Track Changes mode, are preserved
during composition against the QuarkXPress page.
Editors can mark text newly added or slated for
deletion, while preserving exact composition and Quark's
typography. |
