From Reservation to Print in 3 Steps

PublicationFlow helps publishers move from ad reservation to finished layout with a simpler process.

Step 1: Enter the reservations

Start by entering ad reservations in the Excel-style interface or importing them from another system. This gives your team one organized place to manage issue information.

Step 2: Build the FlatPlan

Next, assign ads to pages. You can place ads manually or use PublicationFlow's rule-based tools to speed up the process. You can also review placements, check for missing ads, and adjust the issue before production.

Step 3: Generate the InDesign file

When the FlatPlan is ready, PublicationFlow can create a live, editable InDesign file. Your designer can still make final adjustments before print.

After that, PublicationFlow can also help with billing exports, payment workflows, and advertiser communication.

This is what makes the system valuable: it supports more than one part of the job.

Instead of using separate tools for reservations, layout, billing, and reminders, PublicationFlow helps bring the issue together in one workflow.

For publishers who want fewer mistakes and faster deadlines, that is a better way to work.
