Adobe FrameMaker and PDF content using XML
BOSTON –
December 13, 2005 - CambridgeDocs,
the leader in XML technologies for document
repurposing and enterprise publishing, announced
today the 2.0 release and general availability
of the xDoc Converter family of applications,
including both the desktop and server versions
of the product. The xDoc Converter family lets
organizations increase the value of their
existing content by transforming and repurposing
the most popular document formats into open and
accessible XML standards, thereby enabling
integration into database systems and leveraging
of extremely flexible XML publishing practices.
The xDoc Converter is implemented in 100% Java
technology and is the application family of
choice for some of the world’s largest Financial
Services, Publishing, Healthcare and
Manufacturing companies when they need to
repurpose Microsoft Office®, PDF, Adobe®
FrameMaker, HTML and other document formats on
Linux, Solaris or Windows machines.
“Increasingly, our customers want us to
transform their legacy content into XML”, said
Mark Hellinger, President and CEO of Xyleme, a
CambridgeDocs business partner. “We are now
exploiting the 2.0 release of the xDoc Converter
product because of its easy to use Visual
Mapping interface, its robustness of features
for transforming to XML, and its cross-platform
architecture.”
The desktop version of the xDoc Converter gives
end-users an easy-to-use interface for mapping
documents into DITA, Docbook or any other XML
format, while the server version enables
powerful and precise XML publishing for
repurposing existing content in J2EE server
environments.
Release 2.0 features include:
- More Powerful and
Easier-to-Use Visual Mapping of Unstructured
Content to XML
- Integrated Document Views of Source Content for
Visual Rule Creation
- Input Rule Creation Wizards that Simplify the
Conversion Process
- XSD and DTD Import Functionality
- DITA and DocBook Conversion Toolkits
- Microsoft *.doc to PDF publishing for any Java
environment
- Pure Java Microsoft Word Driver
- Pure Java PDF Driver
- New FrameMaker MIF Driver

“We’re very
excited about the 2.0 Release of the xDoc
Converter family. We listened closely to our
customers and partners, and spent a ton of
effort making the 2.0 Release of the xDoc
Converter much easier to use while increasing
its power and flexibility in transforming
existing content into XML,” said Kedron Wolcott,
Co-Founder and VP Engineering of CambridgeDocs.
“The feedback we’ve received from early-adopter
customers has been extremely positive, as
they’ve had significant success using the server
version of the xDoc Converter as the repurposing
engine for their content-centric database and
publishing applications.”
The xDoc Converter desktop and server are ideal
choices for organizations needing to repurpose
and get more out of their existing content,
whether that is existing PDF, Word, HTML, ASCII
or FrameMaker files. This might include
integration of existing content into Enterprise
Content Management Systems such as Interwoven or
Documentum, creation of new legal contracts from
existing library boilerplates, or re-publishing
airline maintenance manuals as PDFs according to
strict FAA guidelines.
