IN.VISION AND VASONT SYSTEMS PARTNER TO SPEED
MULTI-CHANNEL PUBLISHING
Partnership will allow Xpress Author for Microsoft Word users
to contribute “publish-ready” content directly
to the Vasont Content Management System for delivery across
numerous media channels
SAINT PETERSBURG, FL & EMIGSVILLE, PA, SEPTEMBER
14, 2007 – In.vision Research, the leading provider
of software for Enterprise XML Authoring, and Vasont Systems,
a leading provider of content management software and data
services, today announced a partnership designed to closely
integrate their products in order to further meet the needs
of publishing clients. Under the terms of the agreement, Vasont
Systems, whose content management system enables organizations
to manage and store multilingual content, will create an extension
that allows Xpress Author for Microsoft Word users to access,
store, search, and reuse structured content stored in Vasont
databases.
John Friske, president and CEO of In.vision, said, “We
continue to see a huge desire to open up entire organizations
to structured content authoring. Vasont has already established
an impressive record of bringing ROI to organizations with
their single-source content management system. With this partnership,
Microsoft Word users will be able to create XML documents
that contain sophisticated data structures, such as DITA,
that are leveraged by Vasont for multi-channel publishing.
The result will be faster time to market and increased ROI
for organizations that will no longer need to manually convert
Word content to XML before publishing.”
“More and more, organizations are seeing the benefits
of implementing structured writing and content management,”
said Suzanne Mescan, Vice President of Marketing for Vasont
Systems. “But many writers still prefer to use tools
like Microsoft Word to do their authoring. Using structured
authoring tools and learning XML isn’t what the writers
bargained for. This partnership between Vasont and In.vision
will enable us to build an integration that will allow the
authors to work in their easy editing environment while simultaneously
providing XML content for reuse and repurposing to multiple
media channels.”
