THE AV RESOURCE FOR TECHNOLOGY MANAGERS
2014 From the Editor
EDITOR’S NOTE [Margot Douaihy, editor, AV Technology & EDUwire.com]
Not only are in-house technology managers overseeing the daily operation and optimization of integrated AV and control systems, these tech leaders are also installing technology, tracking product lifecycles and iterations, referring products to peers, training end users, managing help desks, and performing maintenance and upgrades. But there’s a fundamental and—quite frankly—worrisome problem: tech managers are underrepresented. The critical piece of the puzzle in the built environment—the AV tech manager—is often left out of manufacturer messaging, trade shows, and educational initiatives.
AV Technology addresses this important need. We are the industry’s definitive resource for audiovisual and infor-mation technology managers whose responsibility includes the understanding, procuring, maintaining AV/IT systems, driving the delivery of convergent-capable networks, and getting “buy-in” from both senior management and IT specialists.
We know that it is the tech manager who is the best ambas-sador for AV, as she or he best understands the facility’s evolving user needs. The tech manager is the point-guard who plans ahead, creates contingencies for expansion projects with architects/builders, and manages ever-evolving departments. As one of our writers—an AV manager in a preeminent medical school—just told me: “I feel that there is a lack of opportunity for technical and AV managers to develop the soft skills that are now more and more vital in the role. This is part of a wider concern to me; AV and technical venue managers, and live event technicians, are underrepresented in the industry.”
We bridge the knowledge gap so that technology managers are fully equipped with what they need to know to make the best possible AV/IT technology purchase decisions for their organizations. Every month, in our print and digital editions, and every day on AVNetwork.com and EDUwire.com, we share personal insight, success strategies, and occasional horror stories. Our masthead is comprised of the most innovative tech managers in the field; my experience as an AV and edtech system user at Marywood University gives me an additional perspective.
Our governing theme is “Meet Your Manager.” We ask: how best to achieve great quality at all points in the vendor and deployment chain? How to give the end-user client simple control, without sacri-ficing quality? How to offer the best ROI? Our editorial keeps tech managers ahead of the trends.
—Margot Douaihy, editor, AV Technology and EDUWire.com

AV Technology is the resource for audiovisual and
information technology managers whose responsibil-
ity includes the understanding procuring and main-
taining AV and IT systems. Our mission is to bridge the
knowledge gap so that technology managers are fully

best possible AV/IT technology purchase decisions for
their organizations. We provide a forum in person and
online for end-users to share success strategies and
learn from the experts.
2014 Mission Statement
“As AV and IT have truly converged via IP based technology, you absolutely have to have a base knowledge of these systems to make large campus or nationwide systems work. You should become good friends with your
IT manager. I plan on getting an IT degree to further assist me in the future, as well.” —Audio Video System Design Engineer, Cabela’s World’s Foremost Outfitter

“Our installations support mostly government clients with systems ranging in size from small VTC suites to large command centers. Recent projects have also included integrated classrooms and a large theater. When designing a particular system, we try to address all of the functional requirements by gathering input from end users and system operators. There is a specific focus on continuity across systems by keeping the control system GUI similar, no matter the type of room.”
—Senior Consultant, Booz Allen Hamilton, Lexington Park, Maryland

“There are both hard skills (multimedia, audio & video knowledge including editing, conversion and streaming) and soft skills (classroom sup-port and client follow-up) that drive AV profes-sionals to excel in their field and in their schools. At the same time, thre is no denying that to suc-ceed today, AV professionals must have a firm grasp of computers, IP addressing and basic net-working. The physical classroom has extended beyond the physical environment of the teaching space to include the network infrastructure and the head end. At our school RMS, computer im-age creation and regeneration, blended learning video streaming, signage are all part of AV inte-gration.”

“I am planning on standardizing the audio systems throughout our stores in the US and Canada. We currently have 40 stores and close to 40 different systems due to never having a true direction when it came to sound. We are also going through a very large growth in terms of digital signage. The cur-
rent customer wants that interactive type environment when shopping. We see that need and are in the process of meeting that goal. In the very near future we will have a very large digital signage network
centrally controlled from our headquarters in Sidney, Nebraska.”—Audio Video System Design Engineer,

PDFx1a is our Preferred File FormatPDFX1a are standards that have been set for PDFs used to print. PDFX1a fi les mean that the fi le is trapped correctly, fonts are embedded and colors are CMYK. Trim size and resolution are not part of the criteria of X1a.
Why Make it a PDF?Reed Business Information produces its many magazines using a “PDF workfl ow”. Before the magazine is printed, all incoming digital fi les are prefl ighted and con-verted to one common fi le format - the PDF.
The PDF Advantages PDF fi les are compact in size and are easy to print and transmit via the internet. When we receive a correct PDF fi le, minimal intervention is needed prior to the fi nal press run. The ad will print exactly as designed!
What you should Know It is critical that strict specifi cation guidelines are followed when creating your PDF. File errors occur when ads are not created to size, use non-Adobe nonembedded fonts, contain non-CMYK color (RGB, index,or Lab color images). Files should not contain composite fonts or any ICC profi les. PDFs should not be ripped or trapped. Everytime a specifi cation is violated, a notifi cation will be sent to the client indicating specifi c errors. Another key point to be aware of is that PDF fi les display on your monitor in RGB color and this could be misleading and should not be used as a way to check color accuracy.
The “How-To” on PDFMaking a PDF is easy. Follow the step-by-step Acrobat 6.0 distilling process found in our specifi cations. If your ad is color critical remember to send along a SWOP standard proof with your PDF fi le.
The chart below illustrates the best way to create a print ready PDFs if you are starting from a native application.
