WoodWing Studio supports collaborative editorial planning, authoring, review, and multichannel publishing, while OpenText Core Digital Asset Management provides centralized storage, governance, version control, and distribution of approved digital assets. Together, they help teams create faster, reduce duplication, and ensure consistent use of approved media across channels.

1. Centralized asset access for editorial teams

Data flow: OpenText Core Digital Asset Management to WoodWing Studio

Editorial teams can search and place approved images, graphics, videos, and brand assets directly from OpenText Core Digital Asset Management into WoodWing Studio articles and layouts. This reduces time spent downloading files manually and lowers the risk of using outdated or unapproved assets.

• Marketing and editorial teams work from a single source of truth for media
• Asset metadata and usage rights remain visible during content creation
• Speeds up article production and layout assembly

2. Publishing approved content assets back to the DAM

Data flow: WoodWing Studio to OpenText Core Digital Asset Management

Once articles, page layouts, infographics, or final publication files are approved in WoodWing Studio, they can be automatically stored in OpenText Core Digital Asset Management as finalized assets. This creates a governed archive of published content that can be reused by other teams for campaigns, repurposing, or compliance review.

• Preserves final versions of published content for future reuse
• Supports auditability and content governance
• Reduces duplicate file storage across departments

3. Automated image and document version synchronization

Data flow: Bi-directional

When a creative asset is updated in OpenText Core Digital Asset Management, the latest approved version can be reflected in WoodWing Studio.

This ensures teams always work with current, approved materials.

• Prevents use of obsolete logos, product shots, or legal disclaimers
• Maintains version control across editorial and asset management workflows
• Improves consistency across print and digital channels

4. Rights-managed asset enforcement in editorial workflows

• Reduces production workload for regional and digital teams

• Improves governance for regulated or high-volume publishing environments
• Reduces delays caused by disconnected review processes
