At the STC Conference in Minneapolis this week, SiberLogic is
announcing the integration of SiberSafe DITA Edition with
Adobes FrameMaker 7.2 Application Pack for DITA.
With the Application Pack configured, SiberSafe automatically
adjusts its integrated menu options to deliver comprehensive
DITA content management and workflow from within the familiar
FrameMaker environment.
Incorporating additional features such as collaborative review,
task analysis, and translation management, the FrameMaker/SiberSafe
DITA integration reduces the complexity of DITA-based technical
documentation processes to a single integrated platform.
