On stand P55 at the Retail Business Show 08 opening 5th February at London Olympia Sansui Software will present web-to-print applications for the retail industry. Sansui, a leading provider of web-based publishing and advertising solutions, will show PublishNow! OPEN workflows for AMP and self-service publishing that have applications in the retail enterprise at both central office and local retail outlets. PublishNow! helps retailers face the challenges of communicating effectively with discerning, brand-savvy customers by simplifying the process of producing local versions of printed promotional material  ranging from in-store signage, FSIs and flyers to hoardings and video.

Also on stand P55, Sansui associate company Studio March will launch Brand Shows, a ground-breaking rich media application for creating high-quality, high-recall brand videos to be broadcast online or to a network of plasma screens. With Brand Shows agency creatives can produce new shows in minutes rather than hours and simplify the whole process of planning, storyboarding, presentation, modification and approval.

PublishNow! OPEN is a flexible enterprise-level product that accommodates the most complex web-to-print applications. It offers self-service publishing to marketers who need the freedom to produce promotional materials such as FSIs, ads, POS signage, store labels and flyers that are adapted for the local market. The enterprise also requires consistent branding wherever promotional materials are produced. Sansui has achieved this goal by integrating the publishing workflow of PublishNow! with corporate Digital Asset Management and Product Information Management systems.

PublishNow! provides quick and secure access to studio-designed templates, brand-approved digital assets, work in progress and finished jobs - all from a standard browser. Using Adobe InDesign Server for on-line composition, the PublishNow! core engine can manage the complete publishing workflow from template creation in the studio, addition of content by local retail outlets, dynamic ad/image scaling and versioning to preflighting, proofing and printing in multiple locations.

Through adoption of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and provision of a Web Services SDK, the powerful on-line publishing capabilities of PublishNow! OPEN are open for integration with third party systems. Within this environment Sansui customers and technology partners are provided with the tools to use the PublishNow! OPEN platform to develop custom interfaces, add-on functionality and integrate PublishNow! with complementary systems.
