LSC Communications converts hundreds of magazines into the right format - Textalk Webarch
LSC Communications streamlines magazine formatting and delivery with the help of Webarch.
When LSC Communications handled the distribution of finalized magazines across a range of digital platforms, they needed a solution capable of processing and adapting content from print-ready PDFs into multiple publishing formats—integrated into their existing workflows and scalable for high volumes.

Challenge: Converting finalized magazines into the right format—at scale, for multiple recipients

LSC Communications produced content for a wide range of clients, delivering to platforms such as Apple News, Amazon Kindle, Barnes & Noble, Readly, and other digital publishing services.

Their requirements included:
  • Extracting and structuring content technically, without affecting layout and design
  • Adapting materials to the correct format and metadata, based on the recipient
  • Ensuring technical compatibility with each platform
  • Managing external teams involved in structuring and technical cleanup
  • Automating the entire production flow—from ingestion to delivery

  • Handle and deliver hundreds of magazines in multiple formats with a high degree of automation
