Map your issue—fast, easy, free
As part of its technology-driven commitment to efficiency, Sheridan Magazines has partnered with EFI to bring its clients one of the most powerful software tools ever developed for publishing professionals—at no charge.
EFI Proteus®, a software application created to permit editors, art directors, production managers and others to collaborate on the assembly of a magazine, helps you track position requests, manage color placement and accommodate the last-minute changes every publisher struggles with. The end result is a digital “map” that takes into account insert positions, color imposition and ad/edit ratios.
Proteus:
- Tracks multiple placement requirements for both ads and stories
- Provides automatic conflict checking, auto alerts on placement violations
- Easily adds or subtracts pages and repaginates
- Helps you make more efficient use of color
- Enhances internal communication through a variety of customizable reports
