Such pre-sales materials often have even more compelling opportunities for single-sourcing and reuse than technical documents. Up to now, these materials have been produced one at a time in page-oriented publishing systems like Adobe InDesign and Quark. While this provides maximum flexibility in controlling exact page layouts, it can create a nightmare when small changes must be replicated across all the independent pages and documents. Why can’t we use XML to more flexibly handle this kind of content? In fact, we can! Using page formats from real marketing content, this whitepaper demonstrates how XML tools can be used to maintain highly graphical sales collateral, web pages, and product catalogs from a single source of XML information. http://tc.eserver.org/25933.html http://tc.eserver.org/25933.html Brochures are good for some things but not others. The key to not wasting your money is to understand what brochures do well, and what they don't do well. http://tc.eserver.org/22724.html http://tc.eserver.org/22724.html Takes you through each step needed to create a durable outdoor banner. http://tc.eserver.org/13582.html http://tc.eserver.org/13582.html Each year we like to highlight some of the outstanding print publication samples we've seen and ask ourselves is there opportunity for a do-it-yourself project.
