Portland, OR — Extensis Inc., has announced immediate availability of its leading Digital Asset Management (DAM) solution, Portfolio 7 and Portfolio Server 7 for Windows (Macintosh versions will be available in May).
Portfolio enables photographers, graphic artists and other individuals and workgroups – from those in small-to-medium sized organizations to multiple workgroups in global 2000 companies – to organize,
retrieve, repurpose, and distribute digital files quickly. Portfolio Server also provides instant access to assets across the Internet and other wide area networks, opening the communication channel between distributed team members and partner networks, making asset management and collaboration easier and more efficient than ever before.
New Features in Portfolio 7
For greater efficiency and real-time collaboration, Portfolio’s new AutoSync functionality allows users to assign tasks to Portfolio Server, enabling automatic synchronization. This feature also offloads file management and processing to Portfolio Server, boosting the system’s overall workflow efficiency.
The most dramatic new addition to the Portfolio 7 Suite of products is NetPublish – an add-on module that automates the process of turning Portfolio catalogs into elegant, full-featured websites – with no knowledge of HTML or JavaScript required.
Other new features include One Click CD/DVD archiving, Batch Image Conversion that allows users to convert image files to JPEG or TIFF format, with controls for resolution, size and color mode, and Round-trip embedding of IPTC and XMP metadata into JPEG and TIFF files.
