Thanks, Nadine and Scott. As I mentioned in my other e-mail, DITA is just a learning curiosity for me at this point. It *seems* overly compex for what I need, but looking to learn nevertheless ... Now to real reason for this thread! My *current* flow is simple: 1. Write the documents

Thanks, Jeremy. I will take a look at his efforts to do this. I already have a login on mif2go.com and recently download the demo version of MIF2go 4.0. Just need to install and try it to see if it is what works best for me. If so, then I will proceed to a purchase. Thanks again! Z

Are you using Confluence 3.x or 4.x? The work I've been doing is irrelevant to 3.x, which requires wiki markup. On Fri, May 18, 2012 at 11:44 AM, Syed Zaeem Hosain (syed.hos...@aeris.net) syed.hos...@aeris.net wrote: Thanks, Jeremy. I will take a look at his efforts to do this. I already have

Hi Syeed--- I would suggest you look at MIF2Go if you've just got one writer or workstream, or possibly WebWorks if you have multiple. Both do all that you ask for. I've used both, and am very happy with MIF2Go. WebWorks ePublisher Express is working fine for a client, but I don't do anything
