We have some new release notes to share with you today. In these notes we will keep you informed about new features, small quality-of-life improvements and technical updates. If you have any feedback, do not hesitate to let your customer success  manager know.

Highlight of our biggest improvements

Workflows now have full video support

Collaborate on video and animation projects with ease. Review with frame-accurate annotations and process comments in one overview. Keep things organized by proofing all your content channels in one place. Collaborate on all your campaign content, online and offline, with the same familiar toolset.

Render engines & Video automation

We have completely revised our cloud engine structure, giving customers access to 3 engine types. Besides rendering InDesign-based content, such as PDF and JPG, you can now render on-brand video content with After Effects files or high volume vector-based web content with SVG output. With Relayter you can now truly unlock the full omnichannel potential of data-driven content automation.

 

Vector based web content

Generate your high-volume promotional content in light-weight SVG vector output for the web.

Auto layout leaflets & magazines

We have extended the workflow automation options. You can now let Relayter automatically layout your promotional magazines and leaflets based on your existing data input.

Manage custom typefaces

Upload and manage your own custom on-brand typefaces & fonts directly in the Relayter UI.

 

Custom workflow editor

Build production workflows easier and better than ever before. We have released our full enterprise-grade workflow editor to the UI for powerful and complex configurations. From step behaviour, multi-role rights, transitions, automations and actions, build the ultimate workflow for each content channel.
