It is the most effective online flatplan tool available. It is designed for publications, especially magazines, but is also useful for smaller books and papers less than 1,000 pages. By using it, you can create a sheet which immediately displays your plan (articles, ads, titles, page numbers). If you want to instantly renumber pages or are fed up with clumsy file formats, forget about it! Flat-Plan will create your flatplan instead of you having to do all the work!

For those who are not familiar with flatplanning, a flatplan is a working map of a publication as it is being produced. It shows where the articles and advertisements are laid out, and in what order. Without a flatplan, the Production and Advertising Directors struggle to control which pages go where, making signing off on a publication incredibly difficult and time consuming. Initially, flatplans were drawn out on pieces of paper stuck to the wall of the production team. As the pages moved around and advertisements were booked (and cancelled), the pages were annotated and amended.
