During 2011 and OTOR’s first year of existence we utilised the Calameo engine to enable iPad capability and also embed video links. With Issuu finally advancing to the point where iDevice compatibility is better and more attractive than Calameo (and the facility to place links in the document is far more straightforward) OTOR will push ahead with a single publishing tool in 2012.

 

What does this mean?

 

Simply the magazine will keep on the issuu format and should be available instantly upon publication for viewing or download either through Android, computer or Apple technology.

 

Our video links will still be present (offering many more types, apart from just Youtube) but will be better placed throughout the magazine with an orange OTOR ‘O’ logo indicating where you should click. At the moment the Issuu Beta phase for iPad and iPhone means that links are usable through these devices (so get on a computer to see the films!) but we hope the final version of the software will be ready very soon.
