Reply To: What is k4?

K4 is an editorial workflow system… there are many of these, including from Woodwing. For example, let’s say you have a team of 10 people, including editors, designers, art directors, marketing team… and maybe you’re doing a magazine. And each article is in a different InDesign doc. So the workflow system lets you, the production person, send a layout to the art director with a note saying, “hey, can you review this” and they can send it back to you, etc… And the editorial workflow system knows who has the “live” version at any given time, and who is supposed to be doing what.

I’m sure it can be far more complicatated than that (including DAM systems, etc.), but that’s the basic idea of a workflow system.
