4 Results <strong>of</strong> system survey<br />
On the basis <strong>of</strong> the survey, this chapter will describe the capabilities <strong>of</strong> the systems that<br />
Sundsvalls Tidning uses. Are they able to function in a future production flow <strong>for</strong> an e-<strong>paper</strong><br />
edition concerning what file types and ways <strong>of</strong> storage the system uses?<br />
4.1 Interviewees<br />
The chosen interviewees have because lack <strong>of</strong> time and priority only been selected from<br />
Sundsvalls Tidning and suppliers <strong>of</strong> Sundsvalls Tidning. The idea <strong>of</strong> interviewing other<br />
similar suppliers <strong>of</strong> content systems et cetera. was put aside because other parts <strong>of</strong> the thesis<br />
took longer time than expected. The interviewees have been interviewed in their area <strong>of</strong> work<br />
and the results from the interviews have been <strong>of</strong> satisfaction.<br />
