Connected publishing workspace
Make the whole book in one place.
Structure the manuscript, connect publishing records and image slots, compose the actual edition, proof its pages, and prepare output without rebuilding the book between tools.
One edition, one source
The book changes form as you work. The source does not splinter.
GRANTH treats a book as a connected publishing object rather than a manuscript file surrounded by disconnected notes, cover files, credits, and proof exports.
Raw material becomes a structured edition, then a measured physical page.
The publishing flow
Nothing gets recreated merely because the book reached its next stage.
- 01Structure
Shape parts, chapters, title matter, front matter, back matter, and edition rules before the pages are composed.
- 02Connect
Keep people, series, and publisher identity reusable while direct image slots stay attached to the edition that uses them.
- 03Compose
Turn the structured source into real facing pages with the book’s typography, images, margins, folios, and chapter identity.
- 04Proof
Turn through the physical edition, inspect page flow and cover treatment, then prepare the approved source for output.
Book system
The information around the manuscript belongs to the book too.
Series rules, contributors, publisher identity, direct image slots, and the editorial structure stay connected to the edition instead of being copied into another document or media library.
- Structure
- Parts, chapters, front matter, back matter
- Shared records
- People, series, publishers, reusable identities
- Image slots
- Marks, title artwork, opening images, covers
Physical proofing
See the edition as a book before it becomes an output.
The proof is built from the real composition: page geometry, typography, assigned imagery, chapter identity, folios, and page breaks. Turn through it, inspect it, then correct the source.
- Facing-page and single-page proof
- Physical page turning
- Measured page-fit checks
- Cover inspection
Outputs
Approve the edition once, then carry that source forward.
Print proof, final print preparation, and digital destinations should start from the same approved book, not from parallel versions that slowly disagree.
