XChange Offers Free Productivity Consultation To Help Printers Stay Competitive and Increase Profits

Free Workflow Consultation from XChange US

London, United Kingdom & Clearwater, FL – XChange US and XChange UK are currently offering conventional, digital and hybrid printers free consultancy and productivity audits based on their specific needs, demonstrating solutions that can assist them in staying competitive in the industry as well as increasing their profits.

XChange offers workflow automation solutions that allow print companies of any size to do more with their existing software. These fully customizable solutions avoid bottlenecks and streamline workflows, and can be integrated into any existing production environment. They save valuable time and resources, boost production efficiency and enable greater throughput with enhanced customer satisfaction and retention.

“Printers today all face the same challenge: How to grow in a highly competitive market with thinner margins, increased customer service demands and in many cases reduced staffing levels. Current market conditions put incredible pressure on companies to try to find a way just to stay in business, much less increase profits,” states Tami Stodghill, XChange Press Relations Manager.

“So, how do printers minimize costs, maximize profits and still deliver consistent quality? How can they affordably speed up turnaround times, increase capacity and throughput and maintain customer retention? That’s where workflow automation solutions step in.”

By offering a personalized consultation and speaking with printers about their specific needs, XChange finds most printers are amazed to find how much more they can do, enabling them to expand their customer base, offer more competitive pricing and reduce errors.

XChange also offers information regarding the Return On Investment when implementing these solutions, providing a clear picture of just how quickly printers can start saving money using their workflow investment.

In most cases, printers see a complete return on their investment within the first few months and going forward, they are much more profitable and are able to add services to their offerings. Printers who wish to take advantage of the free consultancy can contact either XChange US or XChange UK and the consultancy session can be scheduled at their convenience.

“We are really excited to be able to offer those in the print industry this opportunity to find out more about the solutions available,” adds Tami. “Automation is the answer to ensure consistent quality, faster turnaround, better prices and to offer a wider variety of services. A change in current processes allows printers to be able to meet and beat the criteria that will keep their current clients happy and allow greater job volume and diversification of their product offerings to stay relevant with market trends.”

XChange US and XChange UK are leading suppliers of PDF workflow and automation tools, creative and publishing applications and extended technology products. They source productivity enhancing software from across the world specific to the print, production, publishing and creative industries and offer them to an extensive user base via their web site. XChange also provides consulting, integration and training services for the products they recommend.

Xtags streamlines production process for hundreds of newspapers and magazines with Pre1

Xtags for InDesign or QuarkXPress turns simple tagged text into complete, complex documents. What if you could have a software robot that obeyed a simple tagged text file format (and not some XML monstrosity) to create formatted document contents? And, what if, using this single format, you could produce either Adobe InDesign or QuarkXPress documents as needed? Xtags lets you build documents with anchored and unanchored objects, size the objects to fit the frames (or vice versa), apply master pages or spreads at any point, use macros for brevity and power and translation tables for easy conversion, giving you serious layout power and much more!

In this case study, Mark Jockin, CEO of Pre1 Software in Portland, Oregon explains how Em Software’s Xtags product became a backbone of the Pre1 newspaper software sold to hundreds of publications across the Americas.

DocsFlow for InDesign is a Huge Time Saver at a Non-Profit

David Rager, a designer/art director in Paris who works with a non-profit organization called The Ecology Center in California, has been using DocsFlow recently and is quite enthusiastic about the product. See what David had to say about DocsFlow for InDesign.

“I’ve been plugging away with DocsFlow over the last few months and found that it has been a huge time saver. What I love most is that it takes away the trouble I often run into with the conventional edit, proofread, approval, repeat system. My clients are also very happy that they get to interact with a live document and see how their text edits change the way the design looks and feels.”

Ecology_Center_Case_Study_eDMS“Our first “DocsFlow project” came back from press recently, 5 contributors were involved, each updating their own docs and everyone is very pleased with the results.”
