Features
LinkUP! enables a user to connect QuarkXPress to a database. For different people this will mean different things. For a catalogue publisher this will mean they can automatically update all of the pricing, text, and picture information in a QuarkXPress document in minutes instead of weeks. Financiers can create styled reports that reflect up-to-the-minute market prices. Directory publishers can automate the entire building process of QuarkXPress documents.
Whatever the application, LinkUP! works efficiently and accurately updating any kind of data into documents and even sends data from the documents back to the database.LinkUP! is an XTensions module for QuarkXPress. This means that when installed, LinkUP! adds features to the QuarkXPress menu.Although LinkUP! has the ability to link with some of the most advanced databases currently available, this doesn't make it a solution that is complex or even difficult to use. Take a person with a database that is simply a spreadsheet file and they don't have a network connection between their QuarkXPress computer and the one holding their spreadsheet. LinkUP! is just as powerful and useful in this scenario as it is for a hundred-user site publishing directly from a corporate mainframe.QuarkXPress and a data source of some description are all that's needed to use LinkUP! It works with existing QuarkXPress documents. The user need only to identify any items within the documents that need to be linked to the database. Alternatively, LinkUP! can be used to automate the complete production of data-intensive publications.The benefits of LinkUP! will vary depending on the type of publication produced and, with it, the problems the user is trying to solve. Benefits:• time savings and increased productivity;• accuracy is paramount, such as when publishing financial data or pricing information, and since LinkUP! is taking information directly from the data source, the data published will be as correct as the database;• no need for proofing or re-keying;• extremely cost-effective solution; and• if the data is time sensitive, such as catalogue pricing, LinkUP! enables the user to make competitive decisions far closer to print deadlines.Features:• provides transparent hot links between QuarkXPress and any database;• allows on-demand updating of text, numbers, and images;• can be used to create a database from existing QuarkXPress documents;• generates multilevel indexes and table of contents across multiple publications;• automatic creation of conditional headers and footers;• direct support for relational databases;• browse, query, and search within database from QuarkXPress;• extraction of geometric information for analysis;• character-translation tables;• conditional updating of picture-information export;• full AppleScript support;• will work with virtually every database in the world, regardless of platform;• utility application accesses ASCII delimited data, though a live link directly to the database is preferred and which will remove the need for an interim ASCII text file; and• supports ODBC and can connect to any ODBC-compliant database through the ODBC language.Manufacturer: MC Research
