ANNOUNCE: XML and Localization Seminar in Santa Clara, CA

14 November 2001 - 8:30 am-4:15 pm
Presenter: Yves Savourel
Cost: $795 reduced rates available for more than 1 registration

The seminar will look at XML from the localization viewpoint: as a format
to store translatable material, as well as a format localizers can
take advantage of to improve their processes. An overview of the
basic facets of XML and its related technologies, underlining the
internationalization aspects will be included. Yves will present
guidelines to create XML vocabularies and to author XML documents
with localization in mind. He will illustrate how to implement
re-usability,localization directives, as well as various some of the
other advantages XML can offer. Localizing XML documents and
interfaces will be covered by looking at the various current
solutions, addressing some of their implementation issues and examining
how to take advantage of interoperability to create alternate efficient
processes. The class will also delve into the different existing
localization-related formats, it will look more especially at XLIFF and
how to take advantage of it. All parts of the seminar will be illustrated
by many concrete examples, and some hand-on exercises.

ANNOUNCE: Camtasia lets you be everywhere at once!

Even if your staff can't be everywhere at once, Camtasia can. Train by
recording your screen, narrating your video, annotating and sharing
worldwide. Utilize Pack and Show, which makes your movies easily
accessible to your viewers - it converts Camtasia movies into an
executable file so users can easily install the TechSmith codec to view
the movie at the same high resolution you saw when recording the video.
No special software required!

SERIOUSLY: Have You Thanked TECHWR-L Sponsors Lately?

If you haven't taken time lately to drop a
quick email message to TECHWR-L sponsors, you
should. Without the support of TECHWR-L sponsors
and advertisers, TECHWR-L would not be able to
provide this wide range of original content and
valuable services to the technical communication
community.

Take five minutes--or less, if you hurry--
to visit a TECHWR-L sponsor and drop them
a quick email thanking them for helping make
TECHWR-L available to you. Please include a cc:
to ejray -at- raycomm -dot- com when you do.

ANNOUNCE: Featured Screen Capture/Screen Recording Software

We at Hyperionics (http://www.Hyperionics.com/) are proud to be
the newest sponsor of TECHWR-L. Hyperionics makes the screen-capture
standards HyperSnap-DX and HyperCam.

HyperSnap-DX is, we believe, the most powerful screen capture
utility available today. We capture screens of virtually any type,
including DirectX/3d, Voodoo, Glide, and even most DVD players!
We offer complete customization of both the interface (customizable
toolbars for example) as well as the controls (hotkeys can all be
defined). And HyperSnap-DX has a complete Voice Drive Interface for
hands-free operation! Our new v4.2 release has received the "Designed
for Windows XP" certification from Microsoft (the certification also
included Windows 95, 98, 2000 and NT) and introduces our new Extended
Active Capture technology for Windows XP users.

HyperCam is an easy to use screen recorder that can capture mouse
movement, sounds and screen activity into an AVI file you can embed
into your documents or deliver via the web. You can even put
notations on the recording, excellent for not just telling but
showing users how something works.

Please visit our site at http://www.Hyperionics.com/ and try out
HyperSnap-DX and/or HyperCam, we know you won't be disappointed.

ANNOUNCE: Welcome Hyperionics as a New TECHWR-L Annual Sponsor

Join us in welcoming Hyperionics as a new Bronze-level
TECHWR-L Annual Sponsor!

Hyperionics is the maker of the popular HyperSnap-DX and HyperCam screen
capture products. Just-released HyperSnap-DX v4.2 adds an Extended
Window Capture function to the highly-capable screen capture and image
editing tool for Microsoft Windows. For use with Windows XP, the
Extended Window Capture function resizes a window to be much bigger than
the screen before the capture--in one quick step, no auto-scrolling!

Recently-released HyperCam v1.61.02 captures the action from your
Windows screen, saves it to AVI (Audio-Video Interleaved) movie file
format, and supports text annotations, sound, and screen notes (great
for creating automated software demos and software training!).

Hyperionics joins the growing list of TECHWR-L annual sponsors,
including

OnlineLearning.com
TechSmith
Anitian
KnowledgeBase.net

These sponsors, along with TECHWR-L monthly sponsors and advertisers,
provide key support that helps make TECHWR-L and all of its services
available at no cost. For more information about TECHWR-L sponsorships,
please visit the Sponsorships page.

Welcome--and thanks to--Hyperionics as a key TECHWR-L sponsor!
