While other price panel solutions exist, they often involve costly custom software development or rely on user intervention for the more complex cases.
iPanels takes the technology to the next level by providing a highly focused solution which offers unprecedented flexibility, both for your designs and data sources. By combining both technologies we are able to offer you the ability to generate a design led price panel from your pricing data source (or sources) and the ability to easily edit and regenerate the panel without the need to go back to the original data. This means that you can easily handle the "exceptions" that arise without affecting the original data source.
What can iPanels do? Here's a taster:-
- XML based template design — template design is independent of your data and uses familiar page layout ideas. If you currently outsource and don't want to deal with our templates, we also offer a service to take care of that for you. You remain in complete control and can decide to maintain your templates yourself at any time, or even retain a third—party to do so.
- Smart data formatting — if your database or file contains dates formatted as "050706" and you want your panel to display "05 July", simply select the appropriate source and target date formatters. Other formatters are included for numbers and text.
- Smart text fitting — if you are happy to abbreviate dates when there is more data than usual, simply select an alternative date formatter to use when space gets tight, e.g. "5 Jul". You define the rules and limits for any number of methods at your disposal to maximize fitting, while maintaining a consistent and professional look.
- Fully integrate into your workflow — iPanels is independent of other applications (such as QuarkXPress or InDesign) but is capable of being fully integrated into an automatic workflow.
- Quick turnaround — create the price panels for an entire print ready brochure in just a few minutes.
