Amnet Systems Private Limited

No matter what kind of publishing project you bring us, we'll leverage our state-of-the-art production facilities and experienced talent pool to provide end-to-end project management for books, journals and reference materials. Our secret is a combination of people and process.

We set up a dedicated team to handle your project, selected from people with the experience and work ethic to get the job done right. There is a Project Manager responsible for every project. He or she is responsible for the planning and execution of your project and to be the primary person to contact whenever you have a question, comment or concern.

He or she is your primary point of contact throughout the project and is the person responsible for getting your job done the way you want it. We know that every project is different.

That's why we developed our proprietary Amnet Data Management System (ADMS). We developed our system so that our Project Managers had a consistent, proven way to gather information about a project, analyze, offer suggestions for improvement, and then manage the project to completion. ADMS was designed to plan and manage projects like yours.

ADMS is process oriented. It's a robust system that provides stringent controls and checks and balances so that we can identify any issues early and correct as needed.

ADMS is customizable. We've designed it so that you and your Project Manager will be able to track and monitor your individual projects.

ADMS is integratable. We've designed our system so it will work with different third party software. That means you can use the software you want without concern for violating intellectual property rights.

Effective project management is one way that Amnet works to make sure we make you a success.

• Scanning
• Image manipulations (from raw photographs, concept sample images from customers)
• Fonts recognition
• Single, Multi-color jobs

• Capability to read and deliver virtually any format
• Automatic and user-defined color reduction from 16.7 million colors to 256 or less color
• Converting hi-fi gradient color scheme artworks to vectors
• Color images converted to vectors and saved as color DXF, mapped to the color palette of your CAD
• Restoration of dithered lines for improved vectors of poor-quality images
• Raster clean-up options like collapsing multi-page pictures, into a single layout

Cover Design

Modern publishing has rendered the old adage "Don't judge a book by its cover!" meaningless. A well-designed cover will improve impulse purchases and increase sales through retail channels.

Our graphic design team studies the content thoroughly to understand the key theme/concept of the book, and develops cover templates. Then the cover page design follows 4 distinct stages:

• Understanding the central theme/concept of the book
• Developing multiple templates using our creative team; fine-tuned with feedback/suggestions from the author
• Get final approval with a template
• Develop the final design

Imaging

Applying a range of image conversion tools / workflow processes and industry-leading imaging applications, we offer a wide variety of imaging services and solutions.

• Scan source documents to electronic image forms (Slides, Tiff, PDF, JPEG, Positives, 16mm/35mm Roll Film and Microfiche)
• Scan and generate high-quality and properly formatted outputs
• Preserve sequence between physical page numbers, image keys within multi-page documents
• Enhancements with proprietary imaging tools

Photo Manipulation & Permission Research

If your project requires incorporating images to support the content, our graphic experts can search through many photo and image archives to locate the perfect images. We can also research copyright issues and secure permission for use. This service can save you valuable time, besides assuring you of content-specific images and copyright compliance.

DATA SERVICES - IMAGE PROCESSING

Experience counts in image processing. Your Amnet project team can apply a range of image conversion tools and industry-leading imaging applications to make your image processing project a success. With our proprietary ADMS we'll plan and manage workflow for maximum efficiency no matter what your image processing needs.

Here are a few services we offer:

• Scan source documents to electronic image forms (Slides, Tiff, PDF, JPEG, Positives, 16mm/35mm Roll Film and Microfiche)


• Scan and generate high-quality and properly formatted outputs


• Preserve sequence between physical page numbers, image keys within multi-page documents


• Enhancements with proprietary imaging tools

One reason that electronic publishing is so popular is that it makes it easy to distribute documents and to store them in archives. But the documents must be in the right format. Amnet prepares content for electronic distribution by converting them to structured formats like XML, SGML and HTML. Here are some of our conversion services.

Amnet can help you convert books, periodicals, magazines, journals, or legacy materials of scientific publishing, legal documents, newspapers etc. into mark-up languages (SGML, HTML, XML and other customized mark-up languages) with exceptional accuracy in mark-ups, formats and characters.

Amnet can help you convert any electronic input (Frame Maker, InDesign, Quark Express, PDF, etc.) into other electronic outputs such as XML, HTML, SGML and other word processing formats.

Amnet can help if your project uses multiple languages including Syrian, Hebrew, Arabic, Spanish, Russian, French, German, Latin and Greek. We can also help you structure transliterated materials.

We can meet your digital library requirements such as ONIX, METS, MARC, and XML and handle high volume conversions using OCR, OWR, line, word and text block coordinates.

Copy editing is the editorial work that an editor does to make changes and improvements to a manuscript. When you partner with Amnet, your copy editor is a regular part of your project team. He or she will be familiar with your style requirements and special needs and query the author whenever there is doubt about what is wanted.

Your copy editor will also:

• Ensure accuracy in spelling, punctuation and grammar
• Preserve consistency in copy style, figures
• Maintain legends and references
• Check for completeness of the manuscript

Technical Editing

Technical editors with scientific/technical/medical subject expertise are assigned to check and make sure that the specifications, page-layouts, typefaces, tables, equations and figure placements, are maintained according to defined project requirements.

When you partner with Amnet, your technical editor is a regular part of your project team. He or she will be familiar with your style requirements and special needs.

Proofreading

Proofreaders check copy and mark any errors so that your copy conforms to the style manual you're using or to international or British standards. Sometimes this process is called line editing. Because our proofreaders will work as part of your dedicated team, they'll be familiar with your special needs.

Your Amnet team can handle complex data capture projects, with exhaustive rules for field information and linkages between fields. We've found that these projects need to be carefully designed and tested before we move to actual processing.

We start by putting together an experienced project team. Then we test the rules in a simulated environment. We move on to mock trials on 'dead' batches of data to make sure all the rules are working properly before actual processing begins.

At Amnet we custom-develop engaging e-Learning content based on the most suitable learning model for the training objectives at hand. We step in to deliver a product that provides an interactive environment conducive to learning.

Amnet has been working to improve teaching and learning in higher education by combining the most current information and communication technologies.
