Auto pagination is the process of automatically or semi-automatically creating catalog pages for proofing. Auto pagination is not just applicable in B2B catalogs where layout is identical across pages. In B2C catalogs, auto pagination has a different application. It is used for automating copy and image "pickup" for a "content proof".

Apsiva Auto Pagination is an easy-to-use wizard. The pagination process is built on the premise that by using a styled template, products and items can be output to a desktop publishing document. This process eliminates a large number of manual steps involved in gathering content. Auto Pagination is one key feature in the Apsiva suite that speeds up the publishing process.

The benefits of Auto Pagination are:

    * Simplify catalog page creation process for B2B Catalogs
    * Extract the latest item descriptions, specifications and images in ONEsource for B2C Catalogs
    * Standardize style application across the catalog

Some organizations and software products claim remarkable success with Auto pagination. This is due to the nature of data in some catalogs. The more structured and predictable the data, the more oppurtunity for automation. E.g., a yellow pages book or a University Course Dirctory can be automated to a larger degree when compared to a Consumer Catalog.
