Single Sourcing is the art of generating online help, user guides, and training
manuals in multiple languages from a single document. At the July 24 BWA
meeting, Jim Ramsay explained how a single writer can deliver professional-quality
help and printed manuals to users and translators quickly, efficiently,
and cost-effectively using FrameMaker, WebWorks Publisher Professional,
and a few other tools and tricks.
Jim used lots of real-world examples to illustrate how to prepare for a
single-sourcing project, plan for translation, use change control tools,
and prepare for transition to a content management system.
