Webinar - The Business Case for Forms-Based Authoring
The Business Case for Forms-Based Authoring
June 19, 2013
Structured content is considered fundamental to content strategy and an organization's ability to deliver content where it is needed across a wide variety of devices and media. Yet authoring structured content has always been a difficult problem. Coding raw XML and WYSIWYG authoring do not work for most authors.
Starting with version 14, Oxygen introduced the form controls as a new approach to authoring, one that hides the complexity of XML without obscuring the structure we are trying to capture, or creating hard-to-understand errors.
Oxygen invited Mark Baker, owner of Analecta Communications and consultant in structured authoring and topic-based writing, to explore the business case for forms-based structured authoring. Topics covered by this webinar include:
- Why structured authoring is critical to the modern enterprise
- The limitations of current structured authoring methods
- How forms-based authoring addressed these limitations
- How forms-based authoring hides XML syntax better than WYSIWYG
- How forms-based authoring at last delivers the ideal of separating content form formatting
- A demonstration of forms-based authoring in Oxygen XML
- The benefits to the organization from adopting forms-based authoring
