Publishing Solutions

Customers increasingly expect to consume content in multiple forms: through Web browsers, via cell phones, and on their mobile tablets in addition to the traditional paged document form. Multiple delivery formats must be met by publishers with fixed resources.

Key Trends

• Mobile personal devices are becoming the dominant platforms for content use
• Customers expect to search and find just the right content they are looking for
• Publishers are looking to automated standards-based publishing processes to meet the rising
  requirements

Structured Content Addresses These Challenges By:

• Empowering organizations to create and process content in reusable topics of XML (DITA)
• Storing, managing, sharing and publishing content tailored to the specific audience or market
• Reusing and/or reformatting the content as new audiences or requirements are identified
• Speeding the time to content delivery and localization through automation

Structured Content Technologies Provides Business Benefits By:

• Driving down the cost of content development, localization, and delivery by 30-50%
• Keeping publishers competitive by enabling reuse of styles along with content, reducing rework, and enabling publishing throughput to scale up to meet demand
• Providing greater overall business agility

Type of Content That Can Be Moved to Structured Content:

• Legal publishing
• Materials and safety standards
• Financial printing
• Medical and pharmacological information
• Accounting standards and practices
• Scientific, technical, and medical journals
• Standardized tests for students and professionals
