Here is a screen-cast of the GoogleDocs input adapter that we demoed at RoundUp 2009. A couple of caveats: This is not currently available and there are no definite plans for making this a part of any ePublisher release. That largely depends on user interest (your interest). The implementation is a demo. As such, there […]

I had meant to blog about coming to RoundUp last week…and then I didn’t. So, for those of us who are here anyway, wow! What a good conference. In the interests of disclosure I will good ahead and let you know that I’m going to gush a little. Yesterday gets my vote for the all-time […]

ePublisher Feed Reader
Shortly after the release of 2009.2, and after some cooperative discussion here on ways that we might improve ePublisher moving forward, I started work on a Feed Reader for the ePublisher Start Page. This isn’t that ground-breaking as a Feed Reader seems to be fairly commonplace on a start or splash page. The first iteration […]

2-Celled Note Table
Someone asked me about this at RoundUp a few months ago, and I’m just now getting around to publishing it. I’ve just posted a tip for creating a two-celled note style table for a given paragraph style on the WebWorks wiki. The implementation uses the wwtransform:super resolver. We are working to make this the blessed […]

Page Template Preview Utility
As promised at RoundUp, I have posted a wiki article on the Page Template Preview utility. It lacks a number of things, such as good design, a clearly defined objective, among others. However, it was fun to write and I hope that it might be useful to anyone who may be trying to unravel Page […]

ePublisher 2008.1 and wiki articles

Publishing Content From the WebWorks Wiki
One of the more interesting aspects of the ePublisher 9.3 Release is the introduction of the Xml Adapter. By default, this Adapter allows users to generate output from DITA source documents. However, perhaps more significantly, it carries with it the ability to configure ePublisher to accept ANY input source. To demonstrate this functionality, during RoundUp […]

FrameMaker 8 Conditional Expressions
Figure: FrameMaker 8’s Show Conditional Text as per Expression Currently, we are working on updating ePublisher to run on Windows Vista. Also I am working on updating ePublisher’s FrameMaker Tool Adapter to support FrameMaker 8. One of the more challenging aspects of this latter task is adding support for FrameMaker 8’s new “conditional expression” feature. […]
