Welcome to TFP’s weekly roundup of interesting and noteworthy stories from the publishing world. This week, we’re discussing Reader’s Digest’s increased frequency, the BBC’s new focus, the release of Adobe DPS v23, and more.
- Reader’s Digest is increasing its annual frequency from 10 to 12 issues. Why? Demand from digital subscribers.
- In an address to staff, the BBC’s new Director General, George Entwhistle, promised to reorganize the company’s teams to allow them to create “genuinely digital content for the first time.”
- Adobe DPS Release 23 was announced this week. TFP’s Cheryl Asselin reviewed the new and updated features. You can also watch a video of Adobe’s Release 22 presentation.
- FamilyFun is refreshing its look and content, beginning with its October issue. The plan to relaunch began shortly after Meredith acquired the magazine from Disney in February.
- In light of the recent releases of the iPhone 5 and the Kindle Paperwhite, Michele Lee DeFilippo looks at the potential impact of screen size on e-reading.
- Creative Cloud membership just got a little bit sweeter. As an Adobe Creative Cloud member, you can now create, develop, and deliver unlimited iPad apps with Digital Publishing Suite, Single Edition.
