SV: Adobe Unveils Technical Communication Suite
As I see it: With the new Adobe Suite-concept you will effectively be able to break the single-sourcing concept if you want, i.e. apply local changes as need be for last minute corrections. However, when working disciplined as of the single-sourcing concept itself, I think the suite-concept provides more overall-functionality than you've ever had -- for a lower price. Round-tripping the RH content back to FM would certainly be a really nice-to-have thing, but I wouldn't expect it to be a loss-less thing to implement, and what would it be worth then? I still think that outputting (you call it repurporsing) single sourced documents offer a win-win solution for all parties. One source to maintain and outputting it to many sources is still quite ideal in my view. I can't do anything else than welcome the new Techical Suite concept although several improvements still can be made (fortunately)!

RE: SV: Adobe Unveils Technical Communication Suite
As long as the RH output can be perfected from within Frame (probably best done in xml), it's fine. If you have to output to RH, then make any large changes in RH, and then output to a preferred format (HTML help, JavaHelp, etc.), there's really no advantage.Sean Pollock Learning Media DevelopmentSiemens PLM Software Date: Tue, 25 Sep 2007 20:47:16 +0200 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] CC: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: SV: Adobe Unveils Technical Communication Suite As I see it: With the new Adobe Suite-concept you will effectively be able to break the single-sourcing concept if you want, i.e. apply local changes as need be for last minute corrections.
