The solution for consistently higher-value, timely global content that creates loyal customers and
efficient, compliant business processes.
Features
XMetaL Author Enterprise helps you get to market faster by bringing structure and automation to
the process of content creation. Using XML standards such as the Darwin Information Typing
Architecture (DITA), XMetaL enables authors and contributors to collaborate effectively—and to
repurpose higher-value information products into the myriad of languages and formats your
customers demand.
When you facilitate the sharing and reuse of content across the enterprise, you improve
content quality, increase staff efficiency, reduce publishing costs and ensure compliance with
regulatory standards.
Used standalone or integrated with virtually any content management system, XMetaL helps
non-technical writers to create and collaborate on reusable content without needing to be proficient
in XML—and ensures that the process of content creation contributes to the timely market release
of products worldwide.
