codeMantra's full-service composition and editorial service is a streamlined print workflow that addresses the publisher's need to develop content better, faster, and cheaper. Incorporating industry-standard software and technology, codeMantra's experienced publishing professionals offer reliable print production solutions. In addition to conventional composition, codeMantra offers an XML-First initiative that integrates XML strategies into traditional workflows to enable true multi-purposing of content into various online distribution channels.

Editorial

codeMantra offers a full range of editorial services that are critical to the development of a manuscript into a finished book. The core of our editorial services is the project manager. codeMantra employs stateside project managers who work directly with the publisher in scoping out and executing a project plan unique to each book. We understand that there is not a "one size fits all" solution for every publisher, so each project is carefully analyzed, and a project manager is available in real-time to deal with those issues that always come up when you least expect them.

The following stateside editorial services are also provided by codeMantra:

• Copyediting
• Development Editing
• Technical Editing
• Proofreading
• Indexing

Composition

codeMantra offers composition solutions that are cost-effective, high quality, on time, and within budget. Software solutions include industry-standard applications, such as QuarkXPress and Autopage, FrameMaker and InDesign. codeMantra will work with the publisher to determine the best solution for each project. Print PDFs are created and distributed to the printer, and finished files are supplied to the publisher or maintained in codeMantra's Digital Asset Management System (Collection PointTM). Talented experts in Photoshop and Illustrator provide support for the creation of print and web-ready images. Professional, Education, Scientific, Technical, and Medical (STM) and other publishers will realize significant advantages in codeMantra's end-to-end publishing solution.
