NewspaperDirect Publishing Partnerships Surpass 3,000 Titles!

November 28th, 2012 1 comment


NewspaperDirect (ND) is very excited to announce the addition of AS, Spain’s top national daily sport newspaper to our growing collection of digital newspapers and magazines available through our PressReader app for iOS, Android, BlackBerry and Windows.

The announcement also marks an important milestone for ND as this latest addition marks our 3,000th publication!

AS joins ND’s vast digital network of top press titles from around the world including newspapers and magazines such as The New York Times, The Australian, The Globe and Mail, The Washington Post, Le Monde, The Irish Times, The New Zealand Herald, La Nacíon, Mundo Deportivo, and National Geographic.

“Spanish-speaking sports fans are going to be thrilled to see that AS is now live across all our digital channels,” said Alex Kroogman, CEO of NewspaperDirect. “Reaching sports fans on any tablet or mobile device is especially important for publishers, since these readers tend to be on-the-go consumers of news content. And with PressReader and PressDisplay.com’s instant translation capabilities, sports enthusiasts from other countries can now enjoy AS’s quality reporting in their own language, opening up AS to the world.”

AS takes advantage of the full range of advanced reading enhancements offered by ND’s PressReader application, giving readers useful features such as:

■ Presentation of the entire colour newspaper, page by page, in high resolution
■ Two modes of reading — high-definition replica and “SmartFlow” tablet-optimized presentation
■ Touch-based, interactive reading experience
■ Quick scanning of the edition by flipping pages, just like the print edition
■ Easy navigation to specific pages, using page thumbnails or a table of contents
■ Instant translation in up to 12 languages
■ On-demand narration of articles
■ Printing of articles or individual pages
■ Sharing stories through email and on Facebook and Twitter
■ Instant posting of articles to cloud-based clipping services Evernote and Instapaper
