power by expanding the feature-set with those features

Flexible publishing structure
Smart Connection Pro has an easy to use interface. While
still using a generic file-server, it organizes files with a more
database-oriented approach. It uses concepts that you’re
familiar with like publication, issue, section, and basket.
You can set up a publication structure according to the
guidelines and needs of your company or organization
even using your own terminology.

Separating design from content
With its check-in, check-out features, Smart Connection
Pro effectively separates the work of the designer from
that of the editor.
Pro effectively separates the work of the designer from
that of the editor.
By doing so, Smart Connection Pro enables a simultaneous
workflow. An InDesign user can’t change the text of a
document when an editor is working on it in InCopy. Text
that is sent to InCopy can’t be modified in InDesign for as
long as it is checked out. In fact, as long as text is in use by
an editor, the only thing an InDesign user can do, is change
the design of the frames that will hold the locked text. An
editor can’t change design elements in InCopy because the
designer is in charge of the InDesign document. Messing
up publications has become virtually impossible.

File Previews
Smart Connection Pro’s preview panel shows you a preview
of your stories or images. This lets you efficiently select
the right files, eliminating the need to undo accidental
placements, saving your valuable time.

Flexible and powerful workflow features
A basket-oriented approach allows editors and designers
to identify steps in the workflow. For example, when
copy is ready to be corrected, you can send your text to
a basket you define as “Revision round.” In fact, this is
an automated communication paradigm, and is one way
that of Smart Connection Pro prevents errors during the
production process. Another example is, editors and
designers can send each other short instant messages or
add annotation notes to a text element.

next basket in the workflow you have set up.

Easy to use non-distracting interface
The Smart Connection Pro panel automatically updates its
status icons as copy and design status of a document or
an article changes.

interface elements that change, yet are irrelevant to their
work.

Publication hierarchies
With its configuration tool, Smart Connection Pro allows
you to tailor the levels of hierarchy to work intuitively with
your workflow. Stages of the workflow can be renamed as
needed and as a project evolves.

Flexible file content
With Smart Connection Pro you’re freed from the “one
file per document” straightjacket. Instead, you can have
as many or as few text elements per file as you want or
need. Smart Connection Pro allows you to have one file
per article, per spread or per publication. For example,
to accommodate flexibility in your newspaper or statutes
in a legislatory publication, you might opt for a file per
article approach. On the other hand, if you’re publishing a
manual, one file per chapter might be the way to go. The
possibilities are virtually endless.
