SiberSafe CMS DocBook Edition

SiberSafe's CMS capabilities, along with its support of the DocBook standards, enable the following key features:

DocBook Stream Templates

By importing the stream template 'DocBook' you can easily create fully-configured environment for managing DocBook content.

Predefined DocBook Templates

You can use predefined templates to create DocBook books or articles that conform to the DocBook DTD. DocBook content can then be published to a number of output formats, e.g. Knowledge Base.

Contribute DocBook Content

DocBook documents can be edited both online and offline, using a variety of integrated XML authoring tools.

Validate DocBook Content

You can validate DocBook content against the DocBook DTD with SiberSafe or with the XML editor.

Content Reuse

Taking advantage of the online Edit console or the Dashboard Reuse Content Console, you can reuse DocBook content across multiple different documents.

Fragment-Level Management of DocBook Books

You can manage complex hierarchical books at the fragment level: check in/out individual chapters/sections/paragraphs of a document, retain version history at the section/paragraph level etc.

Translation Management

SiberSafe's translation management functionality enables you to automate the translation of DocBook content into multiple foreign languages and ensure that unchanged content does not get translated twice.

Collaborative Review

DocBook documents can be reviewed in the on- or offline mode. You can manage the review workflow for any number of reviewers, editors, and subject matter experts.

Single-Source Publishing

DocBook content can be published into a variety of formats, including PDF, HTML, and HTML Help.

Recursive Index Terms

SiberSafe supports recursive index terms, which make it possible to nest one index term element in another.

Synchronize Concurrent and Multiple DocBook Projects

DocBook projects can be integrated together as necessary using SiberSafe's Release Management functionality.

Personalization

Conditionalize DocBook content and generate information products that target different audiences from the same source.

Workflow

Define, automate and efficiently manage a DocBook authoring workflow using SiberSafe workflow automation features. See the Workflow section for information on how this can be done.
