Digital Publishing Solutions for Schools & Universities
Digital Publications for Educational Institutions
Educational institutions face a unique distribution challenge. Students prefer online content, alumni are spread across the world, prospective students expect a digital-first experience—and the teams producing these publications in communications offices, student newsrooms, or admissions departments rarely have the bandwidth to manage a complex digital publishing workflow on their own.
dirXion handles the production so your team doesn’t have to. Provide the PDFs and dirXion takes care of the rest: processing, optimization, hosting, archiving and reader notifications.
