 AutoPrice™
AutoPrice has been the premier database connectivity, price versioning, and reporting product for more than ten years, and is now available for the Adobe InDesign application. The product has been used by hundreds of major catalogers in the United States and internationally, including more than 25 of the largest catalogers in the USA, (as ranked by Catalog Age magazine).
The AutoPrice plug-in provides sophisticated linking of Adobe InDesign documents to any external database of information. As the name implies, AutoPrice is great for performing pricing updates on catalogs, retail flyers and similar publications, but is also perfect for updating phone lists, time tables, or any other type of information that can be referenced by a “key value” such as a product number (SKU).
AutoPrice works by allowing the user to establish “placeholders” within new or existing QuarkXPress documents which are linked to a database file. Unlike other software products which require that you link to a specific text or picture box, AutoPrice lets you link to any range of text or any picture frame. This means that you do not have to restructure your layout to accommodate the links, thereby simplifying the design and editing process.
AutoPrice also allows you to automatically style incoming prices in virtually any fashion. In addition, our exclusive DDF implementation makes it easy to spin-off multiple versions of your catalog or document from a single source, and our GroupPicture product allows you to automate the catalog page building process.Bullet Points:
- Saves time by automatically updating information from any flat-file or ODBC-compliant database. No more manual price changes.
- Allows last-minute revisions so published information is always current & consistent.
- Reduces errors and speeds proofing.
- Allows you to instantly swap out product pictures, logos or any type of graphic image.
- Automate versioning: spin off multiple catalog versions from a single original.
