In brief: Database publishing means automatically generating catalogues, price lists and data sheets from a database such as a PIM system. Layout templates are populated with product data instead of manually copying content into the layout.
Fewer revision cycles, faster updates, more languages with the same effort and consistent information across print and online channels. It is particularly valuable for extensive catalogues, frequent price changes and multiple language versions.
