iXentric^® for Adobe^® InDesign Server

Scalable Control of Adobe^® InDesign^® Servers With MultiInstance and MultiServer support as well as dynamic load distribution and automatic outage control.

Adobe InDesign has already been the de facto standard in desktop publishing for several years. The system has matured over the years now offers an extensive range of functions and enjoys great popularity in the various segments of the publishing industry. Adobe provides a separate server version, the Adobe InDesign Server, for automatic processes and network-side control. This is based on the same basic technology and offers various interfaces for integration.

We have developed iXentric for efficient control of one or more InDesign servers. The system provides a centralised communication interface and automatically controls all connected InDesign Server instances. Rendering jobs are dynamically distributed according to priority and availability. The loads are automatically compensated and faults are bypassed.

The standard API allows direct control of page generation. Corporate design rules guarantee a uniform brand appearance and they protect your documents from unwanted changes.
