WOODWING FOR BOOK PUBLISHERS
From manuscript to market with fewer steps and more control
Bring editorial, design, and production teams together in one integrated platform to plan, collaborate, and publish across formats.
WHY WOODWING?
Improve collaboration, cut manual work,
and manage book production in one place
Optimize publishing processes
Improve your publishing process from manuscript to final output by automating repetitive tasks and removing unnecessary steps. Save time, reduce costs, and focus your team’s energy on content and creativity instead of coordination.
Collaborate in the cloud
Support real-time collaboration across editorial, design, and production teams with a cloud-based environment. Replace email chains and version confusion with structured, accessible workflows that keep everyone on the same page.
Publish to ePub easily
Easily manage both print and digital formats in one workflow. With content repurposing and layout flexibility built in, you can create ePub versions without adding complexity or disrupting your print-first process.
Reduce production bottlenecks and bring books to market faster
Book publishers are under constant pressure to deliver high-quality content faster, manage both print and digital formats, and coordinate teams across departments and locations. WoodWing helps solve these challenges by connecting editorial, design, and production workflows in one system. The result? Better collaboration, shorter turnaround times, and greater flexibility to meet market needs.
Manual tasks slow down publishing workflows
From manuscript handling to layout and approvals, many book production steps still involve repetitive, manual processes. With a connected publishing environment and support for workflow automation, task routing, and PDF proofing, WoodWing helps reduce operational overhead. Your teams can work faster and focus more on content, not administration.
Scattered tools make collaboration inefficient
When editorial, design, and production teams use separate systems, communication breaks down and bottlenecks increase. WoodWing brings these teams together in one shared workspace. Support and integration with design planning tools, automated image processing, and production tracking ensures smoother collaboration across locations, departments, and contributors.
Managing multiple formats increases complexity
Producing books in both print and digital formats often means duplicate work and disconnected workflows. With WoodWing, publishers can manage content for print and ePub in a single process. Integration with digital distribution tools and content delivery platforms enables fast, accurate publishing across channels—without adding complexity for your teams.
