Editorial workflow

Editorial production end to end — one library feeding print and screen, where content management stops and asset management begins, and what keeps publishing when a system does not.

Editorial workflow is where asset management meets deadlines. One library is supposed to feed print, web, apps and syndication; in practice each channel grows its own copy, its own naming and its own idea of what "final" means.

Here we trace production end to end: the boundary between content management and asset management, the plugins and hot folders that carry a file between systems, the approval steps worth keeping, and what a newsroom falls back on when the system it depends on is unavailable.
