Vasont Systems announced that the Vasont Content Management System supports Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA) as well as other custom DTDs. As a single-source content management system, Vasont enables organizations to utilize XML and store content in any language at the “chunk” level, one time, for maximum reuse and multi-channel delivery. Those existing features, among others, make it useful for organizations that use DITA. Vasont is also able to support custom DTDs for organizations that have developed their own as opposed to moving to an industry standard. Created by IBM, DITA is an open standard, XML-based architecture for authoring and publishing technical information. It helps content creators structure information into useful topic “chunks” in a consistent way. Because DITA DTDs are standard, they can be cheaper to maintain. http://www.vasont.com
