online publishing
Publishing large documents online has never been easier with qikPRESS. It is a revolution in online reading with fully searchable text, multi-media capabilities, user commenting and more.
The difference between qikPRESS and other browser-based readers, is that qikPRESS content is HTML based; meaning that it's W3C compliant and user-friendly.
Publications
Environmental Impact Statements
qikPRESS is perfect for this type of publication. Environmental Impact Statements are full of cross-references, technical terms, PDF maps, images, tables and text. As would be expected, qikPRESS easily handles maps, images, tables and text. But what sets qikPRESS apart is it's ability to dynamically process cross-references and glossary terms to dramatically enhance the reader's experience. Check out the Features section below.
Public Information Reports
qikPRESS is great for informational reports of any size. Add a new dimension to what is usually a dull read; with video, audio, flash and more. qikPRESS also seamlessly plugs into your social network channels.
Subscription Publications
Because a publication can be set to private, qikPRESS is a great alternative to sending out PDFs to subscribers. Private publications are accesssed via a secure login where users can bookmark and comment (optional) on the content. Users can also access past publications and search across the entire library (configurable).
Features
Cross-reference hyperlinks:
Following cross-references can be a nightmare when navigating a multi-volume document. It can end up being the most time-consuming part of the reviewing process. Thankfully, qikPRESS has solved the cross-referencing nightmare by way of the hyperlink. We can hyperlink each cross-reference directly to it's source, making your document 100 times faster to navigate!
User commenting:
Users are able to comment on each section of the documet as they read it. The comments are stored in a database and recorded against their corresponding section along with user details (if applicable). This function is useful as a final, internal review and an excellent alternative to spreadsheet commenting!
Search:
Just like following cross-references in a hardcopy document, searching for a particular word or phrase is near impossible! With a qikPRESS publication, you can search the entire document / library in the same manner as searching in a browser. Search results are listed in seconds and you're clicking through to your chosen results in a heartbeat.
In-text glossary:
The beauty of qikPRESS is it's ability to eliminate those small but annoying tasks that arise from reading technical documents. Having to find one glossary term out of a list of hundreds is one such task. With qikPRESS, the glossary is brought to you when you need it. Glossary terms are highlighted throughout the text and hovering over them will give you the glossary definition right there and then. Too easy.
