Adobe FrameMaker

FrameMaker solutions for business use

XML authoring and publishing, server-based publishing, technical publishing, and enterprise publishing are four key areas that represent specific applications of information creation, management, and delivery. Organizations face challenges in each of these use areas, including: limitations in generating XML content; the need for server acceptance or import of a wide variety of formats such as PDF, HTML, or XML; delivery of information to a variety of audiences in multiple languages; and demand for reuse and repurposing of information.

Adobe® FrameMaker® 8 software and Adobe FrameMaker Server 8 software can play key roles in each of these areas. FrameMaker supports authoring of valid XML and has a rich feature set for publishing long, complex documents. FrameMaker Server integrates with databases, application servers, and other data repositories for publishing customized documents. Both applications integrate with content management systems for effective reuse and repurposing of information.
