Everything Eddy can do › Newsroom and editions
Write, plan and lay out in one workspace
One article for print, web and app. The newsroom plans editions, lays out pages and delivers print-ready files, without emails going back and forth.
What you can do with it
Article editor
Write one article and preview it as it will appear in the paper, on the site or in the app. You can create a separate version for each channel.
Planning and editions
Plan editions, assign articles and keep an eye on deadlines. With a page template, you can lay out pages before the copy is in.
Length up front
Give writers a length in lines that fits the space on the page.
Print-ready PDF and IDML
Create a print-ready PDF of an edition, or export IDML to keep working in InDesign.
Versions and change log
See who changed what and roll back to an earlier version. A deleted article is easy to bring back.
Just ask Eddy
Eddy knows this part of the platform and does the work for you. A few examples:
- Which articles for the Saturday edition aren't finished yet?
- 4 articles left. Two are waiting for photos, two for final editing.
- Put yesterday's results on the site and in Friday's newsletter.
- Done. The article is online and scheduled for Friday's newsletter.

Everything works together
This part doesn't stand on its own. Customers, members, articles and invoices all live in one workspace, so anything you enter once can be used everywhere.
