QuickLayout 3.1
QuickLayout 3.1 is the intelligent dummying and pagination tool designed by publishing industry people to save time and cost, maintain accuracy and work with pre-press tools. QuickLayout 3.1 will interface with your existing booking and pagination systems.
QuickLayout 3.1 accepts display advertisements, in a range of formats, and dummies a publication quickly ready to integrate with a desktop publishing package such as Adobe InDesign or your existing proprietary system.
Advertising data is collated and used to distribute advertisements across pages according to publication requirements, press configuration advertisement requirements and priority. QuickLayout 3.1 then positions these advertisements on appropriate pages and sections.

Automatic pagination and layout
Pagination is controlled by a fast, customisable AI based algorithm that distributes advertisements across the publication. With added flexibility, QuickLayout 3.1 enables managers to select and order advertisements to specific requirements.
QuickLayout 3.1 intelligent pagination tools take into account: special positions, colour (imposition schemes), folio schemes, section stacking direction bias, account value, size (inc. ‘page killers’), editorial content and advertising ratios.
Hundreds of advertisements can be automatically laid out from import to save time and extend your production deadlines.
Developed for integration
Import your display booking data and let QuickLayout 3.1 take the hard work out of dummying your publication (note: QuickLayout 3.1 accepts previous version ADS, LRS, FLS, PLS files as well as xml format).
This process is automatic, fast, easy to use, accurate, and customisable. QuickLayout 3.1 is a reliable solution tailored by publishing industry professionals who are experienced with the needs of a busy production process. QuickLayout 3.1 is designed to integrate pre-press without fuss and allow editorial, advertising and production to work independently.
