WebWorks
Publisher Book Now Available
|
|
It's here! The
WebWorks Publisher Cookbook is now available, and if you've
already ordered,
you'll be receiving your copy in the next few days.
Whether you're evaluating WebWorks Publisher or already creating
electronic output, The WebWorks Publisher Cookbook is your
guide to this powerful and challenging tool. The book is a complete
reference for this complex software that creates HTML, XML, JavaHelp,
WinHelp, and other online formats from FrameMaker files. The
Cookbook will help you implement a true single-sourcing environment,
where all of your electronic outputs are created from one set of
files.
The Cookbook begins with a step-by-step guide to setting
up a project, and then provides details for each of WebWorks Publisher's
templates. In addition to scripts for template customizations, readers
get access to cut-and-paste code listings on Scriptorium Publishing's
web site. The latter part of the book is for battle-hardened users
only: context-sensitive help, the WebWorks Publisher macro language,
and regular expressions.
The book is written by three Scriptorium Publishing staff
members: Sarah O'Keefe, Bill Burns, and Sheila Loring.
You can buy the book from our web
site or by special order through any local bookstore. Amazon.com
will carry it in a few weeks. You can also order from our German
distributor, SYSTEC.
