Features

Make your technical content available to users in the format they prefer. Publish to multiscreen HTML5, WebHelp, CHM, eBook (EPUB 3, Kindle Format 8), native mobile apps (iOS, Android, Blackberry, Windows, Symbian), Adobe® AIR®, PDF, Adobe FlashHelp®, JavaHelp, EclipseHelp, and OracleHelp for Java™.

Leverage the scalable, extensible multiscreen HTML5 format to make output look its best on a range of devices. Create new profiles, specify a range of dimensions or resolutions for each of them, provide screen frame images for better previewing of output screens, and specify the browser agents to use to access the content.

Choose from out-of-the-box layouts for desktop, iPhone^#, iPad^#, Kindle Fire, and more, or define custom layouts and map them to screen profiles. Edit the topic style, content, and search features in each layout. Conveniently change styles using a toolbar. Preview pages to see how the layouts will appear.

Deliver content to smartphones, tablets, and eBook readers in EPUB 3, KF8 and Mobi formats. Publish to devices (such as iOS and Android™ smartphones and tablets, Amazon Kindle, Barnes and Noble NOOK™, Sony Reader™) and reader apps (such as Adobe® Digital Editions, Calibre, Aldiko, and iBooks)^{^}.

Allow users to optimize each screen profile based on the size of the output screen by converting auto-size or text-only pop-ups to hyperlinks, changing absolute image and table sizes to relative sizes. Enable the pinch-to-zoom feature, and replace SWF content with Adobe Captivate® HTML5 files on iOS devices.

Schedule your publication tasks to be automatically executed once, daily, weekly, or monthly.

Smoothly integrate with best-of-breed CMSs like EMC Documentum and Microsoft® SharePoint (via built-in connectors) and many others (using third-party plug-ins).

Get a set of APIs that help you connect your enterprise authoring and publishing environments with virtually any CMS. Use server-side and UI features to source files from or publish them to your CMS of choice.

Reuse settings to set up similar publishing tasks. For example, if you have created a task to output PDF, multiscreen HTML5, WebHelp, and eBook (EPUB 3, Kindle Format 8), formats from a set of source documents, you can edit this task to create a task for other source types.

Enjoy comprehensive support for structured content. Easily publish XML/DITA content authored in Adobe FrameMaker 11^* to professional looking output, including composite docs and flat books with FrameMaker components. Map XML and SGML elements to document elements such as tables. Use a context-sensitive styling language for sophisticated formatting.

Automatically run post-publish system commands or batch files. Use post-publish commands to automatically rename, move, or archive output files, especially when running regular builds so that subsequent builds do not overwrite earlier output files.

Invoke tasks and schedules created in FrameMaker Publishing Server from the Windows command line.

Take advantage of extensive logging for all processes in publication tasks to comprehensively report all tasks executed by FrameMaker Publishing Server. You can customize the level of logging and the parameters to be logged.

Perform custom processing on the input files in prepublication state. Create scripts with Adobe ExtendScript Toolkit to automate publication tasks, including prepublication tasks such as applying conditional text for single-sourced publication tasks.
