Content Mapping

ConteX provides improved content availability by categorizing content using a Topic Map architecture, allowing users to easily filter out relevant information and allocate content resources as needed.

Browser-based Access

ConteX improves content accessibility. Users access the CMS using an intuitive browser-based interface that provides automatic HTML preview of updated content.

Content Collaboration

ConteX enables authors, SMEs, publishers, and end users to collaborate by providing tools for information gathering and review. ConteX provides one central repository that shares and controls content flow between all parties involved in the authoring, translation, and publishing of technical content.

Content Retrieval

ConteX includes a powerful search and filtering engine that enables users to receive accurate information based on content metadata and textual information.

Publishing

Multiple Format Publishing

Simply publish any document to popular formats including PDF, HTML, online Help, XML, SGML (including ATA2200 and S1000D), and IETM

Custom Publishing

Set Metadata and Effectivity

Assign metadata to content components, including products applicable, audience, and any other conditional parameters. You define the metadata fields important for your needs.

Set Conditional Tags and Variables

Manage conditional tags and variable values using the ConteX interface. Control variable values based on the context of the document being published, giving an enormous advantage for maximizing reuse.

Filter the tree

Filter the repository according by product version, audience – or any other criteria important to your organization – to view and publish only the relevant content components.

Documentation Website

ConteX automatically converts all content into a web-based format. Using the ConteX Web Module, you have an advanced website for content end users which provides search, navigation, and printing capabilities. The documentation website is updated automatically when content elements are created, modified and approved for distribution.

Translation Management

Reduce Translation Costs

Avoid repetitions. Using the ConteX component-based architecture, translators receive only those content elements that were changed in a way that requires re-translation. This translates into significant savings in money and time to delivery.

Ensure Translations Quality

Using the ConteX Workflow Module you can define and control a clear translation process.
