01 / Taxonomy and metadata
Give content a shared vocabulary
Configure taxonomies, metadata properties and values for use across authoring, reviews, content management, localization, release management and delivery.
Adapt these configurations when your content strategy changes.
02 / Schemas and validation
Make content rules part of the process
Set up specialized schemas and Schematron rules to enforce content requirements for system users.
Reconfigure schema and Schematron files as your strategy evolves.
03 / Content reports
Turn content audits into focused queries
Create specialized reports that query technical documentation and its metadata.
Find, display, count or perform other operations on selected content sets to respond to audit questions.
04 / Content profiles
Support the outputs your audiences need
Configure profiles for product lines, publication types, OEMs or value-added resellers.
Use conditional processing, presentation configuration and publishing plugins to manage different outputs.
