Urban Business Journal · 12 pages · 11" x 14"
One repository for every article, photo and ad in the monthly edition.
Each issue opens with the same fixed inventory of slots taken straight from the print template. Contributors drop copy and artwork into a slot, the desk sees word counts and pixel dimensions validated on the spot, and the issue is press-ready when the board is green.
