  A full blown image archive and image editing app is integrated into DrPublish. Access every image in full quality, fine tune levels, sharpness, color balance and saturation in real-time. From the image app you can mount the image into the article with one click, and from there you may re-size it and move it around to fit your story.

• Import content

  Import articles, images and videos from your existing content sources, as well as 3rd party sources like news and image agencies.

Importing a story in DrPublish means it is formatted and ready to publish instantly. This is a potential huge time saver.

• Supports apps

  An innovative plugin architecture lets you easily develop and maintain a hassle free information flow between DrPublish and your own information hubs.

  Supports apps

  Using our App-APIs (a JavaScript SDK) your programmers can code your own web-apps that add to the capabilities of DrPublish. These apps can insert content into the story (i.e insert add an image), and apps can even change meta-data. Apps can add listeners and perform checks “onSave” and a host of different events. Included are a few apps from Aptoma:

  • DrImage app
  • Meta editing app
  • Fact-box archive app
  • Related stories app to add links to your stories
  • Youtube search app

  You can use any web-enabled programming language to create your apps, and you can host your own apps anywhere. This gives you an unprecedented flexibility of adding capabilities to your article production work-flow.

• Cross channel distribution

  Publish to every screen; create different templates on the fly for use on web, tablet, smartphones or other preferred channels.

  Cross channel distribution

  The data format of DrPublish is not linked to any specific channel. A rich meta-data layer with channel agnostic tagging is at the core of DrPublish. You can produce content for paper production, web, smartphone, tablet or any other digital format you want.

• Simple licensing

  One monthly payment covers all: support, updates and hosting. No long-term contract period.

  Simple licensing

  DrPublish has a small monthly fee, covering what you need to maintain your frontpage. Additional costs may be e.g. if you need us to create your CSS design profile.
