About MultiAd Creator Professional
For those of you who aren't familiar with MultiAd Creator, you're missing out on a good thing. MultiAd Creator may be a potentially very useful addition to your workflow.
MultiAd Creator, which has been around since 1989, is a cross-platform desktop publishing application, similar in many respects to QuarkXPress or Adobe InDesign. However, Creator has some unique standard features, which are not currently available in these other applications without the use of third-party plug-ins. For a comprehensive feature comparison between Creator and other similar software, click here.
As mentioned on the Creator web site, it was designed with the business professional in mind. Therefore, it combines aspects of a page-layout application with those of drawing and image manipulation programs, allowing you to have more control over your documents from within a single application. In addition, in order to offer a greater number of options for workflow integration, Creator is available as a desktop version, as well as a server version for those interested in a fully automated workflow.
Some companies using the desktop version of Creator in their workflows include The Washington Post, The LA Times, and The Chicago Tribune. Companies using the server based version include Mercedes-Benz, Lexus, Toyota, and Bank of America.
Since MacScripter.net is an AppleScript-centric web site, the rest of this article will focus on the unique AppleScript-related features of Creator. For additional general information about Creator, please visit the MultiAd web site.
