Authoring with Eclipse S1000D

Ease of use

Insert graphics simply by previewing and picking the image from a list from our notusCSDB. CGM and SVG graphics containing hotspot information will automatically provide a selection tool to add all the necessary mark-up to the document to support hotspot references.

Easily access items required for maintenance procedure information; ie spares, support equipment and supplies using Common Repositories direct from the CSDB. This comes as a standard part of the application.

Authors can add standard warnings, cautions and notes from Common Information Repository Data Modules. The required content can be selected from a dialog and all required mark-up added to the document with a single click. Candy bar highlights make it clear for the author where the warnings and cautions are created and clear tell-tale mark-up shows when they are cross-referenced to other items.

Configurable

The Eclipse tool takes project configuration data directly from notusCSDB for different projects with the required configuration selected automatically based on the value of the data module’s Model Identification Code. Authors can choose from allowed project values using drop-down lists, rather than having to fill in numbered attributes.

Customers can configure the output strings used for standard attribute values such as security classification, etc to provide local values which are then used by the stylesheets.

Comprehensive

All XML Issues of S1000D are supported from 4 onwards. New issues are added to the application as they are released and are available to customers free as part of standard support.

Support is provided in the author stylesheets for all common Data Module Types, allowing fast and efficient visual creation of content.

Eclipse is just one part of the S1000D toolset. Contiem provide a complete S1000D solution from content creation through management to delivery of print-oriented manuals and other publications. The content is fully compliant with the standard and is also ready for inclusion in other forms of electronic delivery.

Why do I need Contiem?

Industry experience

Contiem have worked with S1000D for many years developing applications, stylesheets and tools to support various authoring needs. Although our S1000D tools are compliant with the standard we can develop local solutions for formatting or editing tasks. We also provide training in both the tools and in the standard so that users have an understanding of the requirements for structured authoring with S1000D.

A solution that fits the problem

Taking on an S1000D project can be a considerable task and needs a lot of pre-planning and well thought out implementation. The Contiem team can leverage their 25 years’ experience of structured topic based authoring to assist you with every step of the process.

All this is backed by the high standard of support provided by Contiem’s in-house support and development teams.
