Electronic publishing, or epublishing, uses new technology to deliver books and other content to readers. Because the technology allows publishers to get information to readers quickly and efficiently, it is causing major changes to the publishing industry as we know it. It will also impact the way we read, offering new hardware and software devices. Our ePublishing services include a variety of different publishing models, including electronic books (ebooks), print-on-demand (POD), email publishing, wireless publishing, electronic ink and web publishing. The descriptions of the different methods of electronic publishing are as follows:
Ebooks
Ebooks are electronic versions of books which are delivered to consumers in digital formats. There are a large number of devices being developed to make reading ebooks easier for consumers. Special software, which makes documents or pages of a book easier to read on a screen, is also being developed by SGTI. A standard for eBook software, known as the open-eBook standard, or OEB, has been developed as a standard format for eBooks by SGTI. The potential market for electronic books (and shorter length content) is extremely large. eBooks are already starting to be a trend setter.
Print-on-Demand (POD)
SGTI’s Print-on-Demand is a new method for printing books (and other content) which allows books to be printed one at a time, or on demand. This method helps publishers from the process of doing a traditional print run of several thousand books at a time. The technology involves complex laser printing systems and electronically formatted text which the printers can read. POD is more effective to print smaller numbers of a book and still make a profit. POD is very hot right now; in a sense, it is a good intermediary step between the regular method of printing paper books and electronic books.
Digital Content
Digital Content generally refers to the electronic delivery of fiction which is shorter than book-length, nonfiction, documents and other written works of shorter length. Digital content deliver shorter sized works to the consumer via download to handheld and other wireless devices. Technology used for delivering digital content includes PDF, XML, HDML, WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) and other technologies. The market for wireless content, which is being developed by SGTI to deliver content to everything from phones, handhelds, microwaves and even clothes, is a potentially enormous market.
Electronic Ink
Electronic Ink is a developing technology that could have a huge impact on the media and publishing industries. Electronic Ink could be used to create a newspaper or book that updates itself. The technology could also be used on billboards, clothing, walls and homes to allow content to appear. In addition, this content could be programmed to change at any time. For media companies, the possibilities are almost endless.
Email Publishing
Email publishing, or newsletter publishing, is a popular choice among readers who enjoy the ease of receiving news items, articles and short newsletters in their email box. The ease of delivery and production of email newsletters has led to the development of a massive number of available email newsletters, mailing lists and discussion lists on a large variety of topics. Newsletters are also widely used by media companies to complement their web and print offerings. Many authors and writers publish their own newsletters in order to attract new readers and to inform their fans about new books and book signings.
Web Publishing
Web publishing continues to change and develop with the introduction of new programming languages. HTML is still the most widely used web programming language, but XML is also making headway. XML is valuable because it allows publishers to create content and data that is portable to other devices. Nearly every company in the World has some type of website, and most media companies provide a large amount of web-based content.
