Unique publishing solutions and concepts for users of Adobe® InDesign®
If you love Adobe® InDesign® or InCopy®, you’ll love VIVA too, as we don’t just make Adobe® documents editable in the Web …
If you use desktop and/or server versions of Adobe® InDesign® or InCopy®, you can improve existing processes by using VIVA technology/products or develop completely new publishing, marketing or communication processes, which with Adobe® products are probably impossible or not possible in this form. At the same time you can even reduce your costs and choose between using VIVA technology as a complement to or as an alternative to/replacement for the InDesign® products:
1. Complement
If you use VIVA technology/products as a COMPLEMENT to InDesign®/InCopy® products, you can profit from the many benefits of VIVA technology, without having to do without InDesign®.
2. Replacement/Alternative
If you use VIVA technology as a REPLACEMENT/ALTERNATIVE to InDesign®/InCopy® products, you can profit from the many benefits of VIVA technology, without having to do without the exchange of documents/data with other InDesign® users.
Why should InDesign®/InCopy® users use VIVA technology at all?
As well as the cost aspect, the use of VIVA technology enables the creation of completely new publishing, marketing or communication processes, which with InDesign® are impossible or not possible in this form:

Due to the excellent Import and Export functions of the VIVA technology, InDesign® documents w.e.f. version CS4 in IDML format can be imported and also re-exported to InDesign®.
In this way you ensure that you can take over your documents from InDesign® (a), can work with both programs in parallel (b) and can return to InDesign® at any time (c).
Depending on the document structure, you can exchange documents between the applications loss-free. The take-over quality is extensively documented, contains many tips, is constantly being improved and adapted to new InDesign® versions.
With the VIVA technology the following processes are possible:
1. You can replace the desktop or server version of InDesign® with the desktop or server version of VivaDesigner and take over existing documents.
2. You can edit InDesign documents with the desktop version of VivaDesigner for Linux, although InDesign® is not available on this platform.
3. You can in future equip additional workstations with the free or licensed version of VivaDesigner instead of with InDesign®.
4. You can use VivaDesigner in the desktop or Web version, if you want to provide (InDesign®) documents to users who only have “MS-Word®” or photo book knowledge. Here the users should have limited editing rights for the document and the user interface should be adapted accordingly.
5. You can use VivaDesigner in the Web version if (InDesign®) documents should be edited by third parties who should have no physical access to the documents.
6. On the basis of the Free Edition of VivaDesigner for Windows, Mac and Linux, you can pass your InDesign® documents to any users, friends, customers, etc., without anyone having to pay for this. Users can edit these documents (in the form required by you) and send them back to you (fully automatically if required).
7. You can personalise predefined templates from InDesign® or other programs with the help of a VIVA publishing server in the Web (formula-based).
8. As an organisation you can use VivaDesigner (Desktop or Web version) particularly in countries where due to the language and writing direction a special InDesign® version is required or for which there is no appropriate support in InDesign® (e.g. for Arabic, Hebrew and Asian languages).
9. You can use VivaDesigner in the free or licensed desktop version, if (InDesign®)documents should be edited by third parties who have little or no financial means to buy software programs. This goes for private users or users in developing countries/regions like Africa or Asia. This also goes particularly for countries in which there is no or only limited Internet access.
10. You can create highly complex documents such as catalogs on the desktop or semi-automatically in the Web with VIVA technologies, and further edit these documents optionally with the desktop version of InDesign®.
11. You can create highly complex documents such as catalogs, price lists, etc. fully automatically with VIVA technology and further edit these documents optionally with the desktop version of InDesign®. Here you save the necessary programming of an InDesign® Server, which in many areas does not have the performance capacity of a Viva publishing server (examples: Dynamic layouts, speed, load balancing, charts/graphs, etc.)

Quark XPress Users
Wenn Sie Adobe InDesign lieben, werden Sie auch VIVA lieben, denn wir bringen Ihr InDesign nicht nur ins Web …
Wenn Sie Desktop- und/oder Server-Version von Adobe InDesign verwenden, können Sie mit dem Einsatz der VIVA-Technologien/Produkte bestehende Prozesse verbessern oder völlig neue Publishing-, Marketing- bzw. Kommunikationsprozesse entwickeln, die mit Adobe InDesign gar nicht oder nicht in dieser Form möglich sind. Gleichzeitig können Sie sogar Ihre Kosten senken und die VIVA-Technologien wahlweise als Ergänzung oder als Alternative/Ersatz zu den Adobe InDesign-Produkten einsetzen:
1. Ergänzung
Wenn Sie die VIVA-Technologien/Produkte als ERGÄNZUNG zu Adobe InDesign-Produkten verwenden, können Sie von den vielen Vorteilen der VIVA-Technologien profitieren, ohne auf den Einsatz von InDesign zu verzichten.
2. Ersetzung
Wenn Sie die VIVA-Technologien als ALTERNATIVE/ERSATZ zu Adobe InDesign-Produkten verwenden, können Sie von den vielen Vorteilen der VIVA-Technologien profitieren, ohne auf den Austausch von Dokumenten/Daten mit anderen InDesign-Anwendern zu verzichten.
Warum sollen InDesign-Anwender überhaupt VIVA-Technologien einsetzen?
Neben dem Kostenaspekt ermöglicht der Einsatz der VIVA-Technologie die Gestaltung völlig neuer Publishing-, Marketing- bzw. Kommunikationsprozesse, die mit Adobe InDesign gar nicht oder nicht in dieser Form möglich sind:
– So können erstmals Dokumente sowohl auf dem Desktop als auch im Browser VERLUSTFREI und MIT DER GLEICHEN FUNKTIONALITÄT bearbeiten.
– Sie können erstmals komplexe Dokumente mit wenigen Mausklicks für Anwender bereit stellen, die lediglich Word- oder Fotobuchkenntnisse haben und für jedes Dokument bestimmen, welche Bearbeitungs- und Ausgaberechte diese Anwender haben sollen. (Dabei müssen Sie die Dokumentstruktur ändern oder komplizierte Konvertierungen vornehmen.)
– VIVA-Technologien bieten EIN Dateiformat für Desktop- und/oder Web-Dokumente.
– Mit der kostenlosen VivaDesigner Free-Edition können Sie oder Ihre Anwender/Kunden “Adobe InDesign-Dokumente” sogar kostenlos bearbeiten, ohne Adobe InDesign zu kaufen.
– Darüber hinaus bieten VIVA-Technologien/Produkte qualitative Vorteile im Bereich der Silbentrennung, Rechtschreibung und Grammatikprüfung. Viele Optionen, wie automatische Schrifteneinbindung, automatischer Versand, automatische Übersetzungshilfen, passwortgeschützte Ebenen und Musterseiten, sind selbst mit PlugIns nicht in InDesign realisierbar.
Aufgrund der hervorragenden Im- und Exportfunktionen der VIVA-Technologien, können InDesign-Dokumente ab Version CS4 im IDML-Format importiert und auch wieder nach InDesign exportiert werden.
Damit ist sichergestellt, dass Sie Ihre Dokumente aus InDesign übernehmen können (a), jederzeit parallel mit beiden Programmen arbeiten können (b) und jederzeit wieder zu InDesign zurückkehren können (c).
Je nach Dokumentaufbau können Sie Dokumente zwischen den Anwendungen verlustfrei austauschen. Die Qualität der Übernahme ist umfangreich dokumentiert, beinhaltet viele Tipps, wird ständig verbessert und an neue InDesign-Versionen angepasst.
Mit der VIVA-Technologie sind folgende Prozesse möglich:
———————————————————–
1. Sie können mit der Desktop- und/oder Web-Version des VivaDesigners die Desktop- und/oder Server-Version von InDesign ersetzen und bestehende Dokumente übernehmen.
2. Sie können mit der Desktop-Version des VivaDesigner für Linux InDesign-Dokumente bearbeiten, obwohl InDesign auf dieser Plattform nicht verfügbar ist.
3. Sie können zukünftig weitere Arbeitsplätze statt mit InDesign mit dem kostenlosen bzw. kostenpflichtigen VivaDesigner ausstatten.
4. Sie können den VivaDesigner in der Desktop oder Web-Version verwenden, wenn Sie (InDesign-)Dokumente für Anwender bereitstellen möchten, die lediglich Word- oder Fotobuchkenntnisse haben. Dabei sollen die Anwender das Dokument nur eingeschränkt bearbeiten und die Benutzeroberfläche soll entsprechend angepasst werden.
5. Sie können den VivaDesigner in der Web-Version verwenden, wenn (InDesign-)Dokumente von Dritten bearbeitet werden sollen, die jedoch keinen physischen Zugriff auf die Dokumente erhalten sollen.
6. Sie können den VivaDesigner in der Web-Version verwenden, wenn (InDesign-)Dokumente von Dritten bearbeitet werden sollen, bei denen eine Programminstallation nicht möglich ist.
7. Sie können als Organisation den VivaDesigner (Desktop- oder Web-Version) insbesondere in den Ländern einsetzen, in denen aufgrund der Sprache und Schreibweise eine spezielle InDesign-Version erforderlich ist oder für die es keine entsprechende Unterstützung in InDesign gibt (z.B. für Arabisch, Hebräisch und asiatische Sprachen).
8. Sie können den VivaDesigner in der kostenlosen oder kostenpflichtigen Desktop-Version verwenden, wenn (InDesign-)Dokumente von Dritten bearbeitet werden sollen, die keine oder nur geringe finanzielle Mittel für Softwareprogramme haben. Das gilt beispielsweise für Privatanwender oder Anwender in Schwellenländern wie Afrika oder Asien. Das gilt aber auch insbesondere für Länder, in denen kein oder nur ein eingeschränkter Internetzugang verfügbar ist.
9. Sie können auf dem Desktop oder im Web halbautomatisch mit VIVA-Technologien sehr komplexe Dokumente wie Kataloge erstellen und diese Dokumente wahlweise wieder mit der Desktop-Version von InDesign nachbearbeiten.
10. Sie können vollautomatisch mit VIVA-Technologien komplexe Dokumente wie Kataloge, Preislisten, etc. erstellen und diese Dokumente wahlweise wieder mit der Desktop-Version von InDesign nachbearbeiten. Dabei sparen Sie die aufwendige Programmierung eines InDesign-Servers, der in vielen Bereichen nicht so leistungsfähig ist wie ein Viva-Publishing-Server (Stichwort: Dynamische Layouts, Geschwindigkeit, Load-Balancing, Charts, etc.)
Database Publishing with VivaNWP Designer
The most powerful Database Publishing tool on the market, developed by one manufacturer as an »all-in-one« product. Why? Because due to its ability to create complex documents fully automatically and at the same time offer a simple user interface that enables but does not require additional programming.
“VivaNWP Designer” is, in a nutshell, a programmable layout program with links to a database or data source. Thus individually created layout templates may be filled/updated automatically with database content. Based on »VivaDesigner«, VivaNWP Designer offers many additional graphic functions such as dynamic tables, graphs and charts or bar codes. The benefit: With the integrated rule structure, graphic designers or database users can achieve perfect results, without being programmers or learning a programming language. In this way it is unnecessary in most cases to use the integrated programming languages »Java Script« or »PHP«, which are praised by the professionals.
