WebPublisher Cart / ESP Options
Our WebPublisher Cart solution allows your users to request or order items from their WebPublisher
PRO search results. Similar to an e-commerce shopping cart, users can
easily add, remove, and view items at any time while browsing your organization's
database.
ESP (Email/Save/Print) is a customized add-on option to Inmagic's line of WebPublisher products, and is a complimentary product to our WebPublisher Cart solution. ESP allows users to select items from search results and then:
- email selections to themselves and others
- print selections from the browser in a choice of layouts
- download selections from the browser in a choice of text formats
The download and print options offer a choice of formats based on DB/TextWorks forms. These can therefore include Inmagic tagged format, EndNote, various citation styles, Excel-style CSV, generic delimited text, etc.
