Flash Magazines - With Page Turning Software

Flash magazines are still the best option for creating digital publications from print versions. The reasons are simple. Flash platform is stable, there is a huge development community constantly churning out components and continuously improving the usability and the already-phenomenal functionality of a flash magazine. Flash has over 95% penetration across the major browsers; you don’t need any new hardware such as a Kindle to view the digital versions, and finally the enormous flexibility to incorporate video, ecommerce, IAB compliant ads and countless other flash-based components. The last hurdle for flash magazines or flash-based digital editions with Page Turning Software to become the de facto standard is for Adobe to achieve high levels of penetration with its mobile friendly version of Flash. For starters, just the major devices such as the iPhone and Blackberry, would do.

Flash magazines of flash-based digital editions have some intrinsic advantages from a user perspective as well. The quality of graphics and realistic animation, which have become the standard in rich media ads, do a fantastic job of maintaining the look and feel of a print magazine. Moreover, the flash magazine often caches the immediate next or previous pages which means that the user does not have to wait for the next page to load when they turn forward or backward. Just think of a flash magazine as a perfect blend of all things good in a print magazine i.e., quality, graphics, and web based content i.e., web based access, cross linking for usability, and social media functionality.

The world of media and information will instantly become richer and a lot more exciting as soon as Kindle and other hardware incorporate Flash Magazines into delivery capability.

Digital Publishing With PDF to Flash Software

Digital publication (digital edition) defined

Think of a digital publication, also known as a digital edition, as an online version of your print publication with a web address or URL, complete resemblance to the print version and a realistic page flipping effect. Add features such as search, print, share, PDF download, and ad serving, viewer tracking & reporting and you have a value added digital version of your print publication.

Print publications have character

Digital Publications/Digital Editions may be the future but the print magazines have a certain endearing quality about them. A print magazine is finite, i.e., you can read it “cover to cover”. The vibrant colors are, in most cases, better than the screen resolution of a laptop or a PC monitor. In fact there is an entire set of reader behaviors such as tearing out articles, dog-ears to mark pages, flipping the pages to scan the pictures and headlines etc. that continue to define the strong if dwindling relationship between the print publication and its readers. Flipping pages, for example, can be much quicker than going to multiple web pages on a site, not to mention that can read a print publication anywhere.

Compelling advantages of the digital publication/digital edition

On the other hand, the advantages of digital publications/digital editions are also well understood. Let’s begin with the fact that readers are spending an increasing number daily hours online with or without having access to the digital version of your publication. Digital publications/digital editions are inexpensive and can be distributed at the speed of the Internet. The potential print and postage savings can change the entire economics of a publication. If it’s available online then a link or even a preview with table of contents can be emailed within minutes, and the readers are just a click away from your digital publication/digital edition. Add to that a slew of benefits that were unthinkable prior to the availability to digital publications/digital editions:
  • Embedding video and interstitial ads
  • Tracking the number of readers – unique and repeat
  • Growing your online ad inventory by serving IAB standard ads within and outside the digital publication pages
  • Capturing user view and interaction data such as page views, clicks – unique and repeat visitors
  • The ability to instantly share the magazine with friends or colleagues
  • Reader interactivity such as ratings, sharing, and comments
  • Administrative features such as login requirement, preview of selected content, data capture, instant polls; and
  • Enabling ecommerce

The phenomenally low cost and high value of publishing a digital magazine makes it a clear direction for all print publishers and in some cases it may even replace the need for certain print publications/digital editions.

So how can you create a digital version of your print publication?

This is probably the simplest part. In fact, creating a trial version of your print publication/digital edition to actually see and test the features and benefits of having a digital publication/digital edition should be a part of your decision making process. All you need is a PDF of your print publication. You can set up a free trial account (no obligations) at PageTurnPro (www.pageturnpro.com). Once you have an account all it takes is to follow 3 easy steps: Upload the PDF; Configure your digital publication i.e., provide a short description and select features you would like to enable; Click CONVERT. It takes just minutes and you will have a URL for your digital publication which you can forward to your friends, colleagues or just embed in your emails or website. It is that simple.
