Adobe Technical Communication Suite 4 gives you the simplicity of publishing from a single application, the automation efficiency of turnkey publishing, capabilities for rich control of automated publishing, and ability to create local style overrides in output. Scenario: Configuring PDF, Multiscreen HTML5 and eBook publishing Adobe Technical Communication Suite 4 was designed for the age of mobile devices. Tablets. eBooks. Technical Communication and eLearning professionals are expected to create and publish content on these devices, which have exploded in popularity in just a few years. TCS4 leverages technologies like HTML5 and thez EPUB file format to make this possible, while maintaining full support for other file formats customers still expect, like PDF and Webhelp. FrameMaker and RoboHelp have always been strong template-driven applications. Authors apply styles as they write. These styles are the key to publishing your content, legacy and new, to your choice of 17 different file formats, from either Adobe FrameMaker or RoboHelp. We just need to do some configuration work first. The key to single-sourcing success is to map FrameMaker paragraph formats and other objects to RoboHelp styles. This allows us to adjust and control our online formatting and behaviors. For example, we may want to break up our online output into topic chunks based on FrameMaker heading formats. We may want different text formatting for online viewing. And we may want to remove page numbers from online cross-references. Adobe Technical Communication Suite 4 uses Adobe Acrobat Distiller for converting images from print to online formats. This ensures that any embedded text in graphics is sharp and legible. Try It! Here we have a RoboHelp project. Let's import a FrameMaker book. We will link the book to the project, so that the RoboHelp project will automatically update to reflect changes in the FrameMaker book. When we link the FrameMaker book, RoboHelp scans the FrameMaker files and creates an internal list of paragraph, character, table, and cross-reference formats. We can link each of these formats to the appropriate RoboHelp style. Now lets create our mappings. This process has become much simpler and more efficient in Adobe Technical Suite 4. TCS4 provides the option of automatically mapping equivalent paragraph, character, and table style names in FrameMaker and RoboHelp. Let's first let RoboHelp do an auto-mapping.
