2. Problem
Eighty percent (80%) of all e-books in
circulation were produced manually by
outsourcing operations.
Top publishers occupy these outsourcing
providers. Leaving smaller publishers and
authors with few alternatives.
Publishers should not have to depend on
outsourcing operations, programmers, or
complicated brand specific services.
3. Solution
Create a way to automate the production of
e-books and media rich e-publications, where
all preparation is conducted in MS Word –
the authoring communities product of choice.
• Zero learning curve.
• No additional staffing.
• Increased production capacity.
• No upfront costs.
• Publish across all major platforms.
4. Concept
Media is automatically embedded within
highlighted keywords, where tapping
keywords opens all forms of multimedia.
Simple editing tools allow for managing
media presentation. Providing complete
control of the final look & feel.
Once produced, multiple versions are created
automatically that can be read on the most
popular e-readers, tablets, or smartphones.
6. Media Presentation
Visual media may be
opened via tap on
keywords, “Dynamic”
media.
Or “Static” media
may be wrapped
within the body of
text.
7. Intellectual Property
Intelligent Highlighting - Patent Pending
Procedures by which to
automatically process to
detect keywords where
media resides. Highlights
are constructed as
programmable objects,
which provide various
promotional and other
downstream services.
