Publishing solutions provider The Charlesworth Group has announced that continuing ten years of providing content management services for the Society for General Microbiology (SGM), the company has now adapted its unique AutoProof technology to integrate with Highwire's Bench>Press and Inera's eXtyles to enable the entire publishing workflow to be managed in-house on a single tracking system.
The AutoProof rapid proof-generation technology is reportedly proving to be a significant benefit to publishers and societies since key parts of the publishing workflow can be seamlessly managed through the system. It dramatically reduces the time to first proof from acceptance as well as the steps in the production management workflow, making it cost and time effective.
AutoProof is a software that converts RTF, Word and XML files to PDF proofs in a matter of minutes.
The Society for General Microbiology has over 5000 members and provides a common meeting ground for scientists working in research and in fields with applications in microbiology. The four online journals of the SGM - Microbiology, International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, Journal of Medical Microbiology, and Journal of General Virology - are all hosted online at HighWire Press, a division of the Stanford University Libraries. Bench>Press is a web-based manuscript tracking and management service developed for publishers of scholarly content, designed to integrate with HighWire's online publishing platform.
