Our innovations For more than 20 years, VIVA has been one of the pioneers of publishing software. Already in 1992, for example, VIVA invented the principle of the separation of form and function for layout programs. Today millions of people work according to this principle, which has been taken over by all current layout programs. Through its inventions and developments, VIVA has contributed significantly to the advance in the graphics software industry like “Database Publishing” (1989) which is a registered trademark of VIVA GmbH. Furthermore the invention of “Network Publishing” and the first publishing server world-wide in the late 1990’s. With “Network Publishing” a user can create graphic documents FULLY automatically from any application. Today the term “Web-to-Print” is used extensively, which however presents just a fraction of the application in the sense of “Network Publishing”.
