Whatever Happened to Cross-Media Publishing? --McIlroy

Software Report

Reviewing Adobe's first release of InDesign in March 1999, the Seybold Report noted that "the hard problems today are workflow automation and media-independent publishing."

I was working with Seybold Seminars at the time and, by checking Seybold's past seminars transcripts site, I see that in the fall of 1997 we offered a whole track called media-independent publishing, featuring sessions like "Publishing in Multiple Media: Moving Toward Media Agility" and "Developing Multi-user Editorial Systems for Print and Online."
