Established in 2001 on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia, Typefi initially launched with the vision of providing automated publishing software for print documents that would enable collaborative workflows within workgroups and across enterprises.
Recognising the early promise of Adobe InDesign for layout, the potential of Extensible Markup Language (XML) as an interchange format, and the strength of Microsoft Office as an authoring and editorial tool, Typefi combined these with its patented automation intelligence to deliver the world’s first fully automated desktop publishing system in 2004.
Expanding to North America in 2007 and then to Europe in 2009, Typefi’s vision for its products and services broadened as the digital revolution gained momentum and new ways of delivering content emerged.
Typefi is now an established global leader in single-source, multi-format automated publishing, with customers in over 20 countries around the world, and a team of 50 staff across nine countries.
Typefi’s people are considered some of the world’s most renowned experts in publishing, design and software engineering. The team works closely with industry leaders and technology partners to keep Typefi’s products and services at the cutting edge of publishing innovation.
No matter what sort of publishing you do, Typefi will help you DO MORE.
