Clear variant management

You want to use a module in different publications, even if differences in content are required? With the marking of individual variants within your modules, this task can be solved easily and clearly in the editorial system Smart Media Creator - SMC.

Variant management via assigned metadata

By defining metadata, you create the required properties and their values. You can apply these at the points in your publication where you require different variants in addition to the basic content. You can assign the metadata to different levels, e.g.:

• Document level
• Module level
• Paragraph level
• Word level

The metadata can also be applied to graphics, media and other objects. In addition, you have the opportunity of Inserting variables that are not filled with values until the media production stage.

You have an overview on the screen of all variants that exist for a specific piece of information. So you do not have to open or display any other modules in order to view other variants. Information that does not differ between the variants (e.g. your product variants) exists in only one instance and not redundantly.

Find the right variants again by means of comprehensive search functions

Using the extensive search options of the Smart media creator, you can find your required variants again. For example, you can search for specific properties and values and also link these search criteria to one another.
