Case Study: Apa Publications halves production time and creates e-books in-house with Typefi

Apa Publications halves production time with Typefi and publishes 17 e-books in 6 months

The customer, Apa Publications, a travel guide publisher, faced significant challenges in efficiently producing over 120 visually rich print titles annually and converting them into e-books. Their manual, InDesign-based process was time-consuming and resulted in inconsistent styling, which prevented them from cost-effectively creating digital formats in-house. They turned to the vendor, Typefi, implementing its Workgroup solution to automate production.

By installing Typefi Workgroup, Apa Publications automated styling and indexing, which drastically cut production time. The solution enabled consistent styling and allowed content to be easily repurposed for print, e-books, and apps. As a result, Typefi helped the publisher halve its overall production time, reduce styling from days to just one day, and successfully bring e-book production in-house, publishing 17 e-books within the first six months.
