Adobe Systems announced that it has begun shipping out an all-encompassing software package that lets publishers create, monetize, and analyze periodicals for Android, iOS, and even QNX tablets.
The Enterprise Edition of Adobe Digital Publishing Suite is a set of hosted software services aimed at "large publishers" that creates, distributes, monetizes, and analyzes digital magazines, newspapers, and publications, Adobe wrote in ablog post. A pre-release version was launched last July, but now customers can access more services on their own.
"What this means is that publishers can access services they weren't able to access before and continue using the authoring tools in our pre-release program. They can start delivering content through our distribution services or access built-in reports or Viewer Builder, for instance," explained Lynly Schambers-Lenox, group product marketing manager, Adobe Digital Publishing Suite. "This will dramatically speed up how fast publishers can get their apps to the Apple App Store or Google One Pass."
Key features include hosted storage and fulfillment services; an analytics service to "analyze and optimize" content; a "Viewer Builder" that lets publishers preview and test their content; an e-commerce service that lets users sell content through mobile app stores; and a "Folio Producer Service" that lets designers upload content directly from within Adobe InDesign.
"With output aimed at Android tablets, including Motorola Xoom and Samsung Galaxy Tab, as well as RIM PlayBook and iOS tablet devices, the Enterprise Edition allows large publishers to implement a custom tablet publishing solution without disrupting existing publishing processes and infrastructure," Adobe wrote in the blog post.
The pre-release boasts clients like Bonnier, Cond Nast, Globo Media Group, Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia and National Geographic. A full list can be foundhere.
Separately, Adobe also announced that a Professional Edition of its Digital Publishing Suite will ship in the second quarter of 2011. According to Schambers-Lenox, the main difference is that the "Pro" version is a set of turnkey solutions that lets publishers publish straight to a tablet, whereas the "Enterprise" version is more of a custom-built solution.
