Zevrix Solutions today announces the public beta release of Output Factory Server 2, a pre-release version of a major upgrade to company's output automation tool for Adobe InDesign. Developed originally for a major magazine publisher in the United States to free up their designer computers from outputting InDesign files, the software automates InDesign workflow by processing files from watched hot folders. 

Output Factory Server 2 beta is now available for public testing as a free download. Beta testers who submit valuable feedback will be able to upgrade to the new version of buy a new license at half price. The new upgrade introduces the following major features:

-Users now have an option to run custom AppleScript and JavaScript scripts before or after the processing of InDesign files by Output Factory Server. This powerful feature dramatically extends the app's functionality by giving users virtually unlimited possibilities to customize and further automate their output workflows.

-Output files now can be saved dynamically created subfolders with variable names. This option helps users better organize their PDF, HTML, JPEG and other files created by Output Factory from InDesign documents. The app can create subfolders for each batch, each InDesign file, and a general subfolder for all assets. Users can combine various subfolder options in order to create a custom folder hierarchy for an easy asset management.
