Zinio Announces ZINIO FUSION(TM) suite -- Interactive Mobile Authoring Tools for Publishers Worldwide
A Trio of Authoring Tools Opens the Door to Rich and Affordable Digital Magazine Creation
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Zinio, the world's largest and most popular digital newsstand, today announced the launch of ZINIO FUSION(TM), a new tool suite poised to create an influx of interactive content creation among publishers and advertisers. ZINIO FUSION suite provides options to content creators for enhancing design and interaction of any digital issue delivered across a variety of devices and platforms.
ZINIO FUSION suite offers publishers and their advertisers three different approaches and products for enhancing design and interaction of any digital publication:
1. FUSION Web: Introduces an online do-it-yourself web tool that enables
embedding of rich media, including audio and video, across any Zinio
platform.
2. FUSION Design: Offers a simple build-out for interactive and
multi-layered pages, leveraging an Adobe InDesign software plug-in tool.
3. FUSION Link: Completes the offering by enabling seamless integration and
content transcoding for external third-party authoring tools such as
Woodwing's Digital Publishing Solution.
"The digital publishing industry is constantly evolving. Zinio prides itself on staying a few steps ahead of the market and designing innovative ways to create strong connections between a publisher's content and their community," said Zinio President & CEO Rich Maggiotto. "At the end of the day, success is contingent on providing the best and most convenient experience. ZINIO FUSION suite enables publishers of all sizes to continue to engage their readers."
The ZINIO FUSION suite has been in beta with a select group of publishers and advertisers including Robb Report, Oakley, Golf Monthly, Yachting and Car and Driver, to name a few.
