The Easy to Use Page Planning System
Integrated
Fully integrated with the Pongrass Advertising database, Page Manager updates the database in real time to allow your production, editorial and accounts departments instant access to ad position. Indeed, Pongrass Page Manager, Production, Editorial and Accounting systems share the same ad-database for the ultimate in integration.
Easy of use
The operator can easily move ads by click and dragging them with the mouse. Page Manager warns the operator when a colour ad is moved to a conflicting page. The operator also can bring up reports on ad depth booked and the revenue for section. Late ads are also a snap to incorporate into an edition, via the Incremental Auto dummy feature. Page Manager allows you to top or bottom align ads with any other ad on the page with a single click.
Comprehensive Zoning
Zone ads can be dummied, undummied, and moved, like any other ad but are restricted to placement on pages in the correct zones. Trying to dummy a zone ad on a full run page or incorrect zone will activate a warning, which you can override to dummy the ad. Auto dummy will only dummy zone ads on their requested zone pages.
Editorial Support
Page Manager exports directly into the Pongrass Editorial System. Ads then automatically appear on the page, as completed ads or as dummies as the case may be, in real time. Export to InDesign is also available.
Late Changes
Late ads and edition resizing are easy. Now you can perform a trial dummy well in advance of publication date with ease.
Rolling Dummy
Interaction between Ad Booking and Page Manager is possible through the common database. Ads can be booked direct to a position with 100% certainty, and the page dummy can be built up progressively through the billing cycle.
