Re: [Framers] OT: Webinar: I am looking for a solution
I would have a look at EmSoftware's DocsFlow plugin for InDesign. It lets you import to Google docs and spreadsheet, creating a one-way or two-way link. Formatting is maintained in InDesign even if document is updated by author. http://emsoftware.com/products/docsflow/ The make a similar product for Word and Excel too.

Re: [Framers] OT: Webinar: I am looking for a solution
I'm skeptical about persuading non-technical Word users to write in DITA and having them do a good job of it. Oxygen hides the code a bit but it's still pretty geeky. Rick just says "XML" but hasn't specified which flavor. And is there a budget? On Thu, Dec 8, 2016 at 1:03 AM, Yves Barbionwrote: > Hi Rick > > I like oXygen XML Web Author a lot.

Re: [Framers] OT: Webinar: I am looking for a solution
Hi Rick I like oXygen XML Web Author a lot. You can test it online here: https://www.oxygenxml.com/xml_web_author.html I'm seeing the following configuration: - Technical writers use FrameMaker + DITA-FMx or the desktop version of oXygen XML Author - Content contributors (subject matter experts) use oXygen XML Web Author - The content can be managed in Git or a DITA-aware content management system like DITAToo, Bluestream XDocs, Componize etc. - To publish to PDF, you can use FrameMaker + DITA-FMx (see also http://leximation.com/dita-fmx/featurecomparison.php). The content contributors could also use Simply XML DITA Edition, but Simply XML does not support the complete DITA standard and all of DITA's reuse features. But then again, your customer may not have a need for full DITA support. I'd love to watch your Solution Search Webinar, but I'm not available this afternoon.

What kind of XML? I don't usually hear of InDesign in the same context as structured text.
