In sync with others.
For ongoing success, it is most important to implement a highly connectable publishing platform, which incorporates the idea of a modern content supply chain. By creating lean processes you’ll ensure that everything runs in sync. This reduces the likelihood of errors and gives you more time to focus on content and company growth. From comprehensive core functionality, to pre-built add-on components, to integration via API, our extensible platform combines proven technology and creativity, streamlining workflows and enabling seamless content creation, management and delivery. Needless to say, the system can quickly and easily adapt to new requirements.
Connect to create
Your editorial and creative teams will love the integration with Adobe Creative Cloud. With Adobe InDesign and Adobe InCopy, you create layout and text in separate workflows, save versions and always have an overview of the status of layout and text, or which task is currently pending. With Adobe Firefly AI, designers can use a powerful tool in InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator to further optimize the content they create in K4. Microsoft Word and Excel are also excellently integrated with K4 and further expand the possibilities, for example to place editable, floating Excel tables in corporate reports or product brochures.
Connect to manage
For many companies, the standard functionality for system management is sufficient. When it comes to special requirements, such as increased system security or the integration of company-wide services, K4 offers maintained, optional out-of-the-box modules to extend the functionality. For example, companies can use their individual Identity & Access Management solution (IAM) and thus also fulfill single sign-on (SSO) requirements within the K4 environment. K4 also supports directory services – another useful option, especially when it comes to embedding in larger IT infrastructures.
Connect to provide
You can achieve an incredible level of automation when delivering content with K4. And if you need to go beyond the standard functionality, K4 can be extended with optional components. Generating printable PDFs, importing and exporting content for web CMS, integrating planning systems and AI services – everything is possible. The scope ranges from a maintained add-on module to a proof of concept (PoC) to in-depth expert knowledge for a customized integration. Furthermore, the maintained integration with seven DAM is an essential part of K4 and adds comprehensive DAM features to your publishing system.
K4 Integrations
Benefit from maintained modules, plug-ins and proven concepts to adapt K4 to your needs. Thanks to an extensively documented API, you can also enhance the functionality to go beyond the standard and meet individual requirements.
