Software

Me
• Background in Theoretical Linguistics
• Technical Writer who moved into Information
Architecture
• Not a developer…just stubborn
• Willing to experiment, willing to break things

Why is this important?
• You need a POC to get the approval for a DITA
migration
• You need a developer to design the outputs for the
POC
• You probably can’t get funds just for a POC
developer
• It’s up to YOU!

The Easy
• Creating a PDF plugin
• Editing localization variables
• Formatting text
 Titles
 Body text
 Note labels
 Lists

The Not So Easy
• Finding the file to edit
• Configuring fonts
• Formatting tables
• Formatting the TOC

The Stupidly Hard
• Setting up pages
• Changing header and footer information
• Formatting the index
