(PRWEB) November 13, 2005 -- WoodWing Software, the world leader in editorial plug-in solutions for Adobe InDesign and InCopy, has joined forces with The Publishing Practice Ltd (TPP), a leading consultancy and systems integration company focussed on enterprise publishing solutions in the publishing industry.

TPP will serve as premium authorized UK Value-Added Reseller (VAR) and system integrator for WoodWing’s industry-leading Smart Connection Enterprise (SCE) product, offering a full range of services from training and implementation to application support. Directors from both companies say they're excited and enthusiastic about the partnership.
“We deliver services to many leading publishers and are excited to partner with WoodWing to implement and support Smart Connection Enterprise. There is a clear migration to Adobe’s current editorial and layout products and SCE is by far the best choice for publishers needing to deliver robust, technically sound, user-friendly and scaleable workflow management. In conjunction with our strategic alliance partner, Satyam Computer Systems Ltd, we can also offer large scale integration solutions between content technologies and other business systems – providing a unique value proposition in today’s marketplace”, said Stephen Ryden-Lloyd, Director and Co-founder of TPP.

WoodWing officials say they're thrilled to be teaming up with an industry leader like TPP.

“TPP has an outstanding reputation and has been serving some of the leading publishing companies in the world, and we're excited to have them as a partner,” said Jeroen Sonnemans, Director of WoodWing Europe. “Their top rate expertise in publishing combined with Satyam’s incredible IT skills and resources, ensures optimum backend support and insightful solutions for their customers.”

Both companies enjoy a worldwide reputation for excellence. WoodWing is based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, with U.S. operations headquartered in Detroit. TPP is based in London, UK and has a network of resources covering the UK and Europe, India and the US.
