Standards-compliant Authoring Inside the Tools Your Teams Already Use

Name: Eclipse Authoring Plug-ins
Availability: InStock

Eclipse is an authoring plug-in for XML editor applications (Arbortext, FrameMaker, or oXygen) that assists Technical Writers in creating S1000D and ATA iSpec 2200 publications. Eclipse can be purchased stand-alone or as part of our fully integrated notusCSDB solution.

Why Teams Choose Eclipse?

Eclipse reduces the time and cost to create S1000D and ATA iSpec 2200 publication by allowing Technical Writers to stay in the tools they know best. Eclipse provides automatic attribute value selection based upon defined project. The software also includes BREX checking to allow for the integration of business rules in your publication.

Standard Enforcement at Authoring Time

Structure, attributes, and business rules that align with XML standards are checked as you type. This validation significantly reduces Publication rework.

Get the Most from Your Current XML Tools

Clients don’t need to learn a new editor. Eclipse fully supports Arbortext, FrameMaker, or oXygen (Web Author and Desktop).

Multiple Output Formats

Multiple pages sizes can be published depending upon the editor you select. For example, you can produce A4, A5, A3, ANSI A, and Index cards.
