Still copying product information into InDesign and updating each document by hand?

When a price, specification or product image changes, that update may need to be repeated across several catalogs, brochures and technical sheets. It takes time, and it’s easy to miss something.

🎥 In our webinar with Pimcore, we show how connecting Pimcore with InDesign lets designers use centrally managed product information and images, check and apply changes, and stay in control of the layout.

Some good news from our home region: Factory has received the Croatian Chamber of Economy’s Zlatna kuna award for the best small company in Virovitica-Podravina County for 2025. 🙌

This is our third Zlatna kuna, and we’re happy to see our team’s work recognised.

Most of that work happens in the everyday details: finding a solution to a client’s problem, taking care of a project and making time to help a colleague. It all contributes to the company we’re building together. 🫶

Thank you to everyone at Factory for the care you put into your work, and to our clients and partners for your trust. 🏆

Factory has received its third HGK Zlatna kuna in the small-company category for Virovitica-Podravina County.

If your team produces brochures, technical sheets or catalogs, a change to a product’s price, specification or image can mean updating several files, often in multiple languages. Keeping every version accurate takes time, and a missed update can leave customers with outdated information.

📍On September 15, we’re hosting a free webinar with Pimcore to show how connecting product data and images with Adobe InDesign can help.

Using a catalog example, we’ll demonstrate how designers can review and apply product updates within their layouts, with less manual copying and less room for error. They retain control of the design, and the same approach applies to other marketing and sales materials.

We’ll also share a real project example, discuss different production approaches and answer your questions during the live Q&A.

Producing a catalog once is one thing. Producing one every week, with the right products, prices, images, and promotional details, requires a process teams can rely on.

📍 For Plodine, one of Croatia’s largest retail chains, we built a catalog management solution that connects ERP data, Pimcore PIM and DAM, workflow management, and Adobe InDesign.

Product information and assets are prepared, reviewed, and approved before they reach the layout. Designers work with reliable data directly in InDesign while maintaining full control over the final design.

The result is a more structured and predictable process for producing weekly promotional catalogs. ✔️

💡 We’ll explore the same data-to-design challenges, and how to address them, during our upcoming webinar with Pimcore on September 15.

📍 We’re teaming up with Pimcore for a webinar about catalog production delays. A challenge many product, marketing, and design teams know too well.

Every change to a price, specification, or image can trigger another round of updates, checks, and approvals before a catalog is ready to be published.

👉 On September 15, we’ll look at why this happens, where catalog production typically slows down, and how companies can build a more connected process as the number of products and channels grows.

We’ll use catalogs as our main example, but the same challenges apply to packaging, technical product sheets, brochures, and other print and digital materials.

If you work with catalogs, product data, marketing operations, e-commerce, design, or the systems behind them, this session is for you.

We’ll share practical examples, show what this can look like in practice, and leave time for a live Q&A.

Pimcore projects often come with requirements that go beyond the standard interface.

Sometimes, the most useful customization is not a large feature, but a focused interface element that gives users faster access to a specific action, listing, or project-specific view.

As teams start working with Pimcore Studio UI, practical examples can make these customization patterns easier to understand and apply.

📍That’s why we prepared a new developer guide showing how to build a custom sidebar button that opens a dedicated Grid widget.

The guide explains the implementation step by step, from setting up the extension structure to displaying and managing data inside the widget.
