Features Include:

• Portfolio Project Sync for Adobe® CS3®
  Created for Adobe CS3-based workgroups, Portfolio Project Sync brings together the power of Portfolio Server with the convenience of the Creative Suite environment. It provides seamless integration between Portfolio Server and CS3, enabling powerful searching, archiving and automated Web delivery from within creative applications. Project Sync ties transparently into Portfolio Server, providing real-time access to assets for everyone who needs it—when, where and how they need it.
  
• Default Field Values
  Set field values up front and save data-entry. These values will be automatically applied to all assets as they enter Portfolio to ensure they start out the way you want. Use Default Field Values to make sure every asset is appropriately credited, initiate processes, or apply important metadata that needs to be associated with all your assets.
  
• Improved AutoSync Performance
  At the core of Portfolio Server is AutoSync, the engine that keeps assets and data synchronized. This powerful server capability now includes greater administrative control over catalogs, support for a wider array of file formats and automatically generates previews for all supported file formats with no additional configuration.
  
• Expanded SQL Database Support
  Portfolio Server SQL Connect now integrates with the latest-generation of the industry standard databases you utilize, including MySQL 5.0, Oracle 10gR2 and Microsoft SQL Server 2005. Each of these databases also supports the new Catalog Types feature (above) making setup a snap.
  
• Enhanced PDF and EPS Support
  Portfolio 8.5 quickly generates high-quality thumbnails and previews from PDF and EPS documents, making it an ideal solution in PDF workflows. You can also view complex, multi-page PDF documents from within Portfolio on both Macs and Windows platforms.
• FolderSync Presets
  FolderSync lets you decide how you want it to work: Set a sync schedule or choose to autosync instead, and opt to “ignore” certain items when synchronizing, if desired.
  
• Public/Private Galleries, Read-Only Galleries
  Creating a Private Gallery makes your galleries quickly accessible and only viewable to you, the creator. Now you can lock a gallery to prevent unauthorized edits.
  
• AutoSync Cataloging Presets
  Enables auto-cataloging and keyword/metadata assignment simply by dropping the asset into a redefined folder.
  AutoSync Path Translation: For faster cataloging and imaging tasks as well as decreased network bandwidth requirements.
  
• Centralizes Digital Assets
  The days of “Which is the right version?” and “Where’s that file?” are over. Centralize all your digital assets for improved organization, security and brand integrity.
  
• AutoSync
  Portfolio Server automatically synchronizes catalogs with any server file that’s been added, updated or removed. This offloads and automates all scanning and image processing from the desktop to the server.
  
• Easy Integration
  Portfolio Server’s architecture is flexible and easily scriptable via VB and AppleScript, making integration and customization extremely friendly compared to any other DAM solutions.
  
• Works the Way Your Creatives Do
  Unlike other digital asset management solutions that can be clumsy to use or take days of training, Portfolio has been designed to work the way your creatives work, with tools that seamlessly integrate into the creative desktop.
  
• Track Versioning Information
  Automatically tags all cataloged files with a User ID and modification date, so you always know who last modified an asset and when it happened.
  
• Rich Media Support
  Because digital assets come in all forms and formats, Portfolio Server supports a wide range of content, including images, illustrations, presentations, audio, video, graphics and documents.
  
• Simple Web Publishing
  Distribute assets to clients, partners or team members in real time across the office or across the world. Add Portfolio NetPublish (sold separately) to create a custom web interface for your Portfolio Server catalogs. Automatically generate deep, multilevel sites that include powerful customizable search functions, gallery and detail views, and collection baskets — no knowledge of HTML or JavaScript needed. Allows an unlimited number of concurrent connections.
• Connect to SQL Databases
  With optional SQL Connect modules (sold separately), Portfolio Server can connect to and serve as a front end for larger SQL databases, opening the door to numerous customization and expansion options.
