The first fully compliant, two-way transaction server for newspapers to provide consumer-to-business and business-to-business information exchange using newly published XML standards. The Connex™ XML Server enables publishers to seamlessly integrate business systems or Web servers with classified advertising or editorial front-end systems.

The Newspaper Association of America (NAA) is currently developing the new CREST (ADEX) standard for multi-media publishing of classified advertising, and along with the International Press Telecommunications Council (IPTC), is helping to develop the NITF (News Industry Text Format) and NewsML standards for the interchange of news data.

Our newest line of " eTool™ applications complements GDTNova's commitment to the new NAA and IPTC XML standards for publishing. Expanding the revenue and e-commerce capabilities of a newspaper or magazine by extending standard on-line applications is consistent with our goals of using tomorrow's technology to enhance today's print industry.
