Use Microsoft Word for Structured, Componentized Content Authoring
Structured authoring with QPP is the foundation for content automation because it’s structured, componentized and tagged with XML metadata so it can be searched, tracked, updated and reused from one single repository.
Quark XML Author, our unique plugin for Microsoft Word, transforms the omnichannel content creation process for subject-matter experts. It provides an intuitive user interface to develop structured XML in a familiar native environment but without the usual complexity or any DITA or XML expertise.
Quark Author, our web-based structured content authoring tool, provides an alternative option to Microsoft Word to help encourage multi-platform user adoption.
