12 December 2002

Two Scottish newspaper publishers have signed up for The Newspaper Societys internet-based artwork delivery network, AdFast, in the same week that the system handled its 250,000th file.

Scottish Media Group (SMG) and Scotsman Publications have signed up for AdFast, eliminating the need to deliver artwork via ISDN, disk or bromide.

This includes SMGs three titles The Herald, Evening Times and Sunday Herald along with Scotsman Publications The Scotsman, the Evening News, Scotland on Sunday and its Herald and Post series.

Scotsman Publications operations director Beverley Burness said: We view this move to AdFast as the next technological step to help our newspapers and advertisers reduce production costs.
