IDI is a full-service e-publishing company.

Today with the introduction of new handheld devices which are light-weight and cost-effective like tablets and e-book readers, the e-publishing industry has gained a lot of momentum. Instead of carrying heavy books while on the move, people are using readers, tablets, and even cell phones. In turn, new modes, such as e-teaching, e-magazines, e-journals, and e-newspapers have come into existence.

IDI is a recognized innovator in cost-effective digital conversion and XML-enabled publishing strategies. We can help you develop operational strategies that best realize your organization’s market objectives.

These services are supported by the expert technology and operations team which offer viable solutions to fit your needs. These solutions are not “one size fits all” type, but are customized according to the needs of each customer.
