SlimPublisher

When working as a publisher, it is expected of you to provide your clients with original and appealing content. It is possible that you receive several requests, including designing business cards, postcards, letterheads or even flyers.

If you find yourself in the above situation, you might consider relying on specialized software, such as SlimPublisher, that can help you create the aforementioned content in an effortless, convenient way.

This handy application features an uncomplicated layout that allows you to easily access all of its functions without turning to the help manual it includes, regardless of your computer operation skills. However, basic to medium publishing knowledge might be required in order to use this program to its full extent.

SlimPublisher can only open specific SPP files and it provides you with no drag and drop support, whatsoever.

You can apply various filters and effects on your content, yet sometimes removing a filter from the list turns to be impossible without restarting the program. It is possible to adjust contrast, brightness and saturation values.

SlimPublisher allows you to edit two sides of the same document by switching views from the dedicated sections. However, using certain standard keyboard shortcuts (such as DEL for removing an object) is not possible, therefore you have to stick to the interface buttons or the context menus.

Also, copying and pasting from one side to another do not work from the context menu, instead you have to use interface buttons.

You can generate barcodes and attach them to your projects by specifying content (e.g. name, e-mail, website) and choosing their position. This application allows you to insert map views that you can set to display a custom area.

In conclusion, SlimPublisher can prove itself to be a handy utility, if you are looking for a basic publishing tool that allows you to attach barcodes and map views to your projects. However, you should be aware that certain functions can be either tricky to use or inoperative.
