Cross-media Publishing (XMedia) employs the concept of "single source" to the creation, management and dissemination of information across multiple distribution channels. We create output independent content, transforms and templates.
XMedia publishing incorporates several technologies and techniques for creating, transforming and distributing information. XML (Extensible Markup Language) is the medium that links authors, engineers, databases and publication designers. Click the associated link for more.
XMedia is typically employed by manufacturing operations, marketing organizations and governments as part of an enterprise-level content and information management strategy. It is used to manage the timely concurrent publication of frequently changing technical information, price lists, catalogs and product documentation.
Smaller organizations and even individuals, however, can realize significant benefits from cross-media publishing if they must frequently deliver structured content such as newsletters, datasheets or user guides on line, in PDF and in print.
XMedia separates content, layout and engineering, enabling authors, designers and development teams to manage and incorporate a single information source concurrently into a variety of media — for print, PDF and Internet.
It can provide significant cost benefits and can shorten lead times for the publication of periodic time-critical content.
