The Problem

 

Monograph Publishing workflow has changed very little in 30 years.

The Problem

 

InDesign and MS Word dominant

 

 

... we are still in the

proprietary Desktop Publishing era...

The Problem

 

No major innovation in publishing workflow due to the internet, except possibly email...

 

 

...Email means we can use InDesign and MS Word with a distributed team...

The Problem

 

Editoria is attempting to replace....

Email

InDesign

MS Word

The Problem

 

Email, InDesign, MS Word are some of the most popular, mature, feature rich software tools ever made
