Tools and Technology

1. At TDI Digital Solutions, we are strong proponents of technology.

Realizing that the potential of technology in publishing is still really quite untapped, we consistently strive to remain ahead of the curve.

In a bid to do so, we enable software solutions that are geared to transform the way digital content and processes are delivered. We are forever engaged in an endeavor to innovate solutions for the challenges that are peculiar to the publishing arena.

At TDI Digital Solutions, we excel at improving the overall efficacy of content conversion and digitization so as to render flawless e-content processes and delivery.

Our production capacity is agile and our turnaround time, even for high-volume data conversion, is impressive. This can be largely attributed to some proprietary workflows we have developed in house,as well as tools for real-time validation.

The nimble processes for maximum efficiency that are routinely deployed at TDI are due to our broad knowledge and expertise in the field.

Our software capabilities are a true testament to our belief in keeping abreast of the latest technological advancements.

Our team of professionals is very well versed with all the major software tools and languages such as XML/SGML/HTML, Core Java/J2EE, ASP/ Dot Net, VB, VBA, Perl DTD/Schema, Tex, etc.

Our expertise is augmented by the availability of tools and processes that have been applauded by some of the top names in the global publishing community.

TD-XPS, a powerful project management tool, is one such shining example. It has been built to boost individual productivity several fold, such that a single team member is able to utilize it to take ownership of a project from beginning to end.

This highly automated web-based platform functions smoothly with very little manual intervention. As a result, it allows for building and managing a robust production process that integrates all the steps involved–authoring, reviewing, editing, formatting, and multichannel product delivery–from the same content management platform. The time efficiency it has engendered is huge in comparison to previous assembly-line processes, and further adds to TDI's flexibility and agility.
