What is Web2Print?

Web2Print allows dealerships to email vehicle information and photos to a local newspaper or other print publication for a one-time ad. It is used when a daily data feed is not needed. The vehicle information is in a comma-delimited CSV file (like the vehicles.txt file in our data feeds) and the photo files are sent separately in the same folder. ** This option is only available on a Gold package or higher. The dealer has the option of selecting only a few vehicles or their entire inventory. The Web2Print Settings page allows them to enter regularly used email addresses or FTP information (the saved information will appear in the Actions menu on the Web2Print page). They can also set the number of photos to be sent through on the Settings page. ** Note: if a lot of images are being sent, it is better for the dealer to use the "Output as Zip file" option from the Actions menu, save the file to the desktop, then attach it to an email. This prevents the email systems from bogging down while processing the images, which can greatly increase the time it takes for them to reach their destination. The attachment shows a sample of an "Output as Zip" file. The Merchandising -> Web2Print page also allows the dealer to set pricing or comments specific to the destination ad. It will not update the information anywhere else in the system.
