Designer®
Enhance layout and design, while delivering effective, personalised communications in a batch production environment.
Designer kick-starts your communication production with a single, flexible environment for all aspects of document design from data definition to layout to production. It provides such familiar layout features as tables, text boxes, shapes, headers and footers that make it easy to use, even in collaboration between IT and business personnel.
Based on the same principles used in standard word processors, even beginning users can organise designs in any number of column layout variations, switching easily between layouts on the same page if required. The core document editor combines Word-like layout with a sophisticated logic map for a simple yet comprehensive design tool.
For use with either the DOC1 or EngageOne solutions, Designer provides a single flexible environment for all aspects of managing and producing large numbers of personalised communication designs. The modular database drives efficiencies by managing all publication resources and makes it easy to reuse elements across applications.
