In this hour long event, learn more about the power of Author-it Localization Manager. Author-it Localization Manager reduces localization costs by helping you send the right content to translation. Don't pay for translation you don't need or, worse, only send part of the content that needed to be translated.

Author-it Localization Manager uses XML to seamlessly integrate with existing localization processes and translation memory tools. Author-it Localization Manager maximizes reuse by using content directly from its single source database. This reduces repeated translations, so translators only work on new and modified content.

* Integration with leading Translation Memory tools
* Substantially reduce post-translation desktop publishing
* XML-enabled technologies
* Word count audit facilities
* Automatic and manual approval facilities

Benchmarked projects show substantial savings in localization costs and translation word counts.

Publishers have a unique opportunity to transform their business by delivering content across an array of media channels. To support these — print, Web, digital editions, e-books and other digital outlets — publishers can utilize innovative platforms to extend their current technology investment. With the introduction of DPCI’s connector module for K4, there is now a solution for integrating the K4 Publishing System, the most widely used platform for InDesign/InCopy workflows in North America, with Drupal’s open-source Web CMS, one of the most popular Web content management systems in the world.

Led by DPCI and MEI, this webinar will show how content can be edited and enriched with keywords within the K4 environment, then directly exported to the Drupal platform. Attendees will learn how to leverage the industry’s top technology to organize all content under one dynamic system, saving time and money while incorporating new media.

You’ve got a lot of content. You’ve been reading about Content Management Systems (CMS) that could make your life easier but they're very expensive to buy. And when you add the costs of training, changes to your workflow, and more, it seems the benefits of a CMS are not for you.  Or they MAY be for you, but you can't decide that until after spending the money.

Help authoring tools (HATs) seem unrelated to CMSs, but HATs have gone far beyond their help roots. They offer features like repositories, version control, review management, content customization using conditionality and variables, and more.  HATs are effectively lightweight CMSs. If you need a CMS, you may find that you can use your current HAT to create test-bed CMSs or even as your actual CMS, saving a lot of money and upheaval. 

This tool-independent webinar covers the issues to consider and the hidden features you may have in your existing tools that can help. You may have everything you need to smartly manage your content.
