From QuarkXPress
or InDesign
to XML and e-Paper

In deutscher Sprache
On this site, we show you several publications produced with InDesign or QuarkXPress as flipping pages e-book. To display XML data from publications as an ePaper or flipping pages e-book is one out of many possible ways to visualize XML data and to publish it for readers.
No matter which demo link you choose, it is always the same type of XML data exported with our document exporters «BatchXport», «XTend-Xport» or «BatchXSLT for InDesign». These exporters may be found on our main site www.AiEDV.ch

The ePaperArchives System

An ePaper Web system based on XML data and an SQL database with full text search and active links into an osCommerce shop.

We install this web system on your machines using remote access.
If you would like to see your own publications as an e-Paper, please, address your questions to Andreas Imhof by email: ai@aiedv.ch

Click on one of the following blue boxes or images on the right side to view the 'slim line' flipping pages e-book, directly created by «BatchXSLT for InDesign» as XML and HTML. Publishing the e-Books is as easy as copying the data on a web server or a CD.

A pluggable Full-text Search module for any number of documents will be available soon (PHP/MySQL) and shown now as a beta version.

A products catalogue with direct connection into the osCommerce shop
This catalogue is produced with InDesign and a database publishing system. The active links may be clicked in the flipping pages ePaper to put products into the cart.
This is NOT a demo!
The shop connection is NOT just a "dummy" connection! It really works: You may put items into the cart and visit the shop. However, if you do not want to buy, then don't go to the payment process!
