      • Visual (WYSIWYG) XML Editors

        Oxygen offers CSS-based, out-of-the-box visual editing support for a number of important XML documentation frameworks (DITA, DocBook, TEI, XHTML). Also, if you are planning to use other types of XML documents, an API is available for customizing Oxygen.

        • Generic Visual XML Editor

          Oxygen allows you to visually edit any XML document. By default, Oxygen includes out-of-the-box capabilities for content review, change tracking, profiling, and conditional text, all of which are independent from XML vocabulary. Driven by CSS stylesheets, Oxygen is simple to use and highly customizable.

          • Customizable XML Editor

            The Author mode in Oxygen XML Editor offers you a productive way to author XML documents, in a manner similar to using a word processor. Oxygen can easily be customized to visually edit any XML document according to your organizational needs and preferences.

          • User-Friendly XML Visual Editing

            Oxygen makes XML document authoring much easier than editing with an unstructured word processing application. Oxygen keeps your documents more organized and efficient by only allowing valid structure and eliminating the need to encode semantics into arbitrary styling. It also reduces the time used in editing content by guiding the author through the process.

          • Built-in Table Support

            Oxygen offers built-in support for both CALS and HTML table models. If your XML vocabulary adheres to one of those models, Oxygen will automatically detect the table elements and structure the content in a tabular fashion. If your XML vocabulary uses other table standards, you can use the standard W3C CSS table styling properties in the associated stylesheet.

          • Review Tools

            Oxygen includes a variety of helpful review tools that improve your ability to collaborate with other members of your team. The review features include the ability to track changes, mark content for various reasons, add comments or comment threads in your content, manage the review features, and to search comments or changes.

          • Profiling/Conditional Text

            Profiling text is a way to mark blocks of text meant to appear in some renditions of the document but not in others. For example, you can mark a section of a document that is to be included in a manual to be designated for 'expert' users and another section for 'novice' users, while unmarked sections are included in all renditions.

          • Constant Validation

            Keeping the content valid at all times is a top priority. As a result, Oxygen will automatically reject actions that will make the document invalid and propose solutions to keep the document valid. Document validation is performed automatically each time the document is changed.

          Oxygen includes a tool for creating and checking digital signatures for both enveloped and detached signatures. The enveloped signatures are stored in the signed document, while the detached ones are stored in a separate file.

          A digital signature is a requirement when exchanging information on an untrusted network. Since XML is used for content storage, it is important to be able to digitally sign the XML files or messages.

        • Helper Views

          There is a set of views, located by default at the side of the editing area, to help you with XML editing. They display the structure of currently edited XML elements, as well as the available attributes and entities.

      • Oxygen WebHelp for DITA and DocBook

WebHelp consists of a series of HTML pages, neatly integrated into a system that offers table of contents, index navigation, text search capabilities, and various delivery formats (including feedback-enabled systems).

        A WebHelp system is the result of running a transformation scenario.

    • Events • Webinar: Guided authoring - enforcing editing rules

      When editing documents there are various rules that you want your content authors to follow, such as grammar rules, document structure guidelines, business requirements, style preferences, or rules for the generated output. To enforce these rules, companies often use grammar checking apps, custom schemas or best practice guides. For content authors, there are usually too many rules to remember them all when writing content. The best approach for this challenge is to signal the user when a rule violation is detected and offer suggestions to help them solve possible rule problems and maintain integrity in their documentation.

    • Events • Webinar: Understanding and developing Schematron Quick Fixes

      Schematron solves certain limitations that other types of schema have when validating XML documents since it allows the schema developer to define the errors and control the messages that are presented to the user. Therefore, Schematron makes the validation errors more accessible to users and helps to ensures that they understand the problem. These messages may also include hints to help the user to fix the problem, but this doesn't complete the solution since the user still needs to manually correct the issue. This may cause users to waste valuable time and also creates the possibility of making additional errors while trying to manually fix the reported problem. Schematron Quick Fixes provide automatic actions to fix validation errors, thus offering a complete solution, while saving time and avoiding the potential for causing other issues.

    • Events • Webinar: AI as a Tool for Technical Content Creation

      In recent months, AI technology has advanced to the point where it is now applicable in a wide range of real-world situations. However, the AI-generated content is not always accurate, making it challenging to introduce this technology to end users. On the other hand, this is precisely why technical writers are an excellent fit for AI since they can serve as a mediator between the AI and the end users, using it to boost their productivity while ensuring the content that they deliver is accurate.

      Oxygen AI Positron Assistant is a new plugin for the Oxygen XML tools that connects to the Open AI Chat GPT engine to introduce AI technology to support technical writing operations.

    • Events • Webinar: DITA Project Management, Validation, and Translation in a Docs as Code Environment

      Docs as code is a philosophy according to which you should write documentation using the same tools and workflows that software developers use to write code. But it's not so much about the tools, as it is about the workflows and practices involved, such as continuous integration or version control. 

      During this event, we will have a look at such a setup using open-source tools and standards that include:

      • DITA, as the plain text format we'll use, because it fits the profile and brings additional benefits to the mix: semantics, content reuse, publishing options. 
      • Storage and version control using Git (trunk-based development). 
      • Project validation in continuous integration pipelines.
      • Translation workflows based on Fluenta:
        • Creating and sharing a Fluenta configuration.
        • Sending the DITA project to the translation service provider as XLIFF.
        • Generating the translated version of the DITA project once the XLIFF returns from translation.

      You'll also witness firsthand a Git workflow demonstration that allows Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to contribute content in a Git repository without having to solve conflicts and without them having to learn and remember DITA details or a specific topics structure. SMEs will seamlessly concurrently edit all the DITA topics by opening just the DITA Map that shows all topics expanded, also having the possibility to easily get around, sort topics, and add new ones.

      Here are some features that will be presented during this event:

      • Conflict-free Git workflow with concurrent editing for SMEs with no DITA knowledge required
      • How to insert new DITA topics with inline actions
