SWING DocPublisher Lets You Turn
Documentation
into Web Content
The
new release of SWING DocPublisher – agile content
management software – helps organizations publish and
maintain internal documentation, such as policies and
procedures, product specifications and knowledge bases.
December 7, 2005 - SWING Software today
announced the availability of SWING DocPublisher 2 –
agile content management software for IBM Lotus Domino.
The new release improves the way companies organize,
distribute and maintain their documentation online.
SWING DocPublisher targets companies that are
standardized on Microsoft Office and Lotus Domino.
Unlike traditional document libraries, DocPublisher
automatically converts Word documents into web content,
so no additional skills are required to publish to
corporate intranets and websites. Original Word
documents are retained for future updates.
"There are many companies that are faced with a
dilemma: Office document libraries or pure web content.
Now they can have both," said David Jakelic, CEO of
SWING Software. "We believe that SWING DocPublisher will
change the way key documentation is published
company-wide."
SWING DocPublisher provides a secure,
permissions-based access to documents, convenient
in-place draft editing, and version control
capabilities. It controls the entire document life
cycle: creation, review, approval, publishing,
notifications, expirations, archiving, new revisions,
and user feedback.
Once the documents are published in a
browser-readable format, end users can easily find
needed information using only web browsers on any
platform. They navigate through the DocPublisher’s
library in a familiar way: with an Explorer-like table
of contents, search, and cross-referenced topics.
The key new features include:
- Custom categories and properties (metadata),
plus custom views. This provides means of
classifying and browsing documents in the library
according to taxonomies that differ from the one
implied by the folder structure.
- Outline promotion. When a Word document is being
published, its outline view can be promoted to the
navigation frame for easier navigation throughout
the document.
- Property promotion. Data exchange between Word
document properties and DocPublisher document
properties.
- Workflow routing, including email notifications
in the edit/review/approval process.
- Document history with audit trail.
- RSS-based subscription to new or updated
documents.
- Separate headers/footers for display and print.
- Bulk export. Companies can easily export the
entire or any part of their DocPublisher libraries
to disk, making the transition from DocPublisher to
any other system as easy as possible. As a result,
the risk of product lock-in has been removed.
- Usability improvements (Ajax-based).
