Write Once, Publish Many?
Posted by rod@drury.net.nz in TechBiz at 12:58 pm on Tuesday, 12 December 2006

Does anyone have any tips for authoring tools that allow you to create content blocks and publish them to word, a web site, pdf brochures etc?

An example would be help authoring, or writing a marketing web site and product collateral.

What’s the cool tool these days?

    I have used Mindjet MindManager Pro for a couple of years. It’s a great Mindmapping tool which enables you to convert your thoughts into any of the standard MS Office products including HTML.

    May not be what you’re after but worth a look.

    A friend of mine specialises in this, so if you want that - and a great tech writer to boot - yell out. He’s in Auckland tho, but has worked remotly before.

    Author-it is a great tool for what you want. They are a great company to deal with as well.

    Hi Rod,

    I’d also recommend AuthorIt. It has a number of great features including a Localization package for the management of language translations (this is the area in which our company operates: http://www.bluesouth.co.nz).
