Autography LLC Releases First in a Series of Applications for Digital Media Personalization

St Petersburg, Fl (PRWEB) October 07, 2011

Autography LLC announced today their ebook personalization application is now available for the iPad through the Apple iTunes store. The release ushers in the international use of the companys patent-pending technology for personalizing ebooks and other digital media.

Autographys e-signing technology works across all major eReader platforms and applications. The signature page can be customized with specific background graphics to help brand the author, book series, or a specific event. For in-person book signings, the signature page can feature a picture of the fan with the author, creating a truly personal keepsake. The result is not a separate file, but a personalized page that is unique for each fan and integrated directly into his or her ebook. Fans can also easily post their autographed pages to Facebook or Twitter with a simple touch of a button.

Were very excited about the release of our application. The flexibility of our software combined with the creative power of the iPad creates the best platform for giving authors complete control of ebook personalization, said Autography co-founder Robert Barrett. We appreciate the phenomenal feedback we have received from authors and their fans they have helped us deliver the only system that provides such a rich set of features to produce truly personal ebooks that can be enjoyed on every major ereader device and application.

Autography selected Tampa, Florida based HD Interactive to take their original prototype and develop a robust, integrated system that provides authors maximum creativity with a simple and intuitive user interface. Autography and HD Interactive have partnered in developing additional products that will be announced soon.

Autography is an exciting project for our team, because of the technical innovations in the app and on the web server, according to HDI President and CEO Sean Carey. We've packed in a lot of features while maintaining a simple user interface. The touch writing algorithms have been refined to provide quality signatures. Most importantly, the web server efficiently adds the signature to multiple formats of ebooks.
