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.

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
