DITAworks Helps To
DITAworks Features
Focused content and better writing
Topic-based authoring produces better writing. Categorizing content into concept, task, and reference topics ensures that users can perform tasks faster because the information is focused. Delivery tools that handle metadata can enable users to search for information based on their company role, their job responsibilities, and their task goals. What this leads to is an immense increase in both productivity and quality, while also lowering the error rate.
Content Reuse
Being an IBM enterprise content management standard, DITA allows to reuse content over and over again seamlessly, essentially eliminating any need to write the same thing more than once. The way this is accomplished in DITAworks is through topics that can be added and deleted to any required end document. These topics are later coordinated via maps, and thus entire documents are constructed from different pieces that can be written once and reused virtually everywhere!
Content Recycling
Finished documents can effortlessly be saved in a number of desired formats, eliminating the need to convert them one by one. Each topic can easily be used to construct documents for different target audiences, without having to re-write everything from scratch. Need to publish instructions for users, while you already have most of the same information available for developers? Just remove the topics that delve a little too much into the technical jargon, and voila!
