Cutting Tool Engineering is excited to announce a major upgrade to our digital magazine, now powered by GTxcel. This transformation offers a seamless, device-friendly reading experience. Our magazine is now optimized by GTxcel’s ACE platform, a game-changing platform that converts the traditional magazine format into a digital-friendly layout. ACE reimagines our publication, making it more like a collection of interactive articles rather than static pages. This modern approach ensures that each article stands alone, optimized for easy reading on any device, whether it’s a smartphone, tablet or desktop. The intuitive interface ensures that you can effortlessly scroll through articles, tap on interactive elements and enjoy multimedia content without the constraints of a traditional magazine layout.
With ACE, an interactive table of contents allows you to jump directly to different sections and articles. Page thumbnails and a slider make it easy to find specific pages quickly, while the robust search function helps you locate articles in seconds. We’ve made sure to cater to all reading preferences with multiple viewing options. If you prefer a more immersive experience, the scrolling mode lets you move through pages vertically or horizontally, offering a smooth, continuous read. For those who want an uninterrupted reading session, the full-screen mode is perfect. This feature expands the magazine to fit your entire screen, removing distractions and allowing you to focus solely on the content. Plus, with just a click of a button, you can switch to viewing the magazine in a traditional format, maintaining the classic feel of flipping through pages.
Our digital magazine goes beyond text and images. GTxcel’s innovative platform allows us to integrate rich media elements such as videos, audio clips and interactive advertisements. This adds depth to our articles and provides a more engaging and informative experience.
Accessibility is a top priority. Our digital viewer includes features like adjustable font sizes, high-contrast design, and the ability to use screen readers ensuring that everyone can enjoy our content, including those with visual impairments. Sharing your favorite articles is effortless with our digital viewer. Direct social media sharing options let you post articles to Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn with just a click. You can also share content via email or download the magazine for offline reading. Enhance your reading with features like bookmarking and annotations.
