IXIASOFT Product Lineup

"This manual can only be fixed by that person." "The writing style varies from person to person." Don't you feel a sense of crisis in such a situation? The personalization of technical documents leads to management risks such as decreased quality, increased training costs, and disruption of technical inheritance. DITA is a structured and standardized document management method that maintains a consistent quality regardless of who writes it. It prevents personalization, formalizes and accumulates knowledge, and establishes a document foundation that can be used continuously into the future.

• Catalog and manual creation

Advancement of products, global expansion, and fluidity of human resources. While the environment surrounding the manufacturing industry is changing, the way technical documents and manuals are created has not changed for years — and many companies are in this situation. - Similar documents are being recreated multiple times for each product. - Oversights in revisions and inconsistencies in expressions are becoming quality risks. - Translation costs continue to rise year after year. These issues are not "people problems," but rather stem from not "structuring and managing" documents. This document introduces a specific approach to transforming technical documents from "cost" to "reusable assets," centered around DITA (structured content), which is being increasingly adopted in Japan's manufacturing industry.

• Catalog and manual creation

In software development with continuous updates, manual updates tend to become a bottleneck for releases. 'IXIA CCMS' engineeringizes the production process, achieving synchronization (simultaneous launch) of the development cycle and document publication. 【Features】 ◎ Single Source, Multi-Publishing: Generate manuals in PDF, web help, in-app guides, and data for chatbots all at once from a single XML data source. Eliminate the need for separate writing and management for each medium. ◎ Optimization of Release Timing: Automatically output without going through DTP software, allowing immediate reflection of UI changes right before development. Shorten the waiting time for publishing from "days" to "minutes." ◎ Acceleration of Global Releases: By allowing only new feature topics to be sent ahead for translation processes, perfectly synchronize the timing of product releases and the publication of multilingual manuals. ◎ Optimization as a Website: By outputting structured data, easily build and maintain web manuals (help sites) that are strong in SEO and highly searchable. ＼For more details, please contact us or download the materials!／

In the medical industry, where high safety standards are required, there is no room for compromise on "version control" and "audit trails" in manuals. 'IXIA CCMS' supports strict operations that eliminate human errors by visualizing the entire lifecycle of documents. 【Features】 ◎ Perfect Traceability: Automatically records "when, who, what item, and how it was modified" for each topic. Instantly generates reports of the history required for audits. ◎ Quality Control through Workflow: Enforces the drafting, review, and approval processes within the system. Physically prevents the risk of unapproved content being published. ◎ Ensuring Consistency Across Languages: When the source language (Japanese or English) is revised, automatically sets "update flags" for all affected translated language topics. Prevents accidents due to translation omissions. ◎ Rapid Response to Regulatory Changes: Allows for cross-application of modifications across all manuals in response to regulatory changes, significantly reducing revision costs and time to release. ＼For more details, please contact us or download the materials!／

• Catalog and manual creation

The manuals for work machines and industrial equipment contain a vast amount of "duplicate information" due to similar models and options. 'IXIA CCMS' is a cloud-based system that manages documents in "topic (component)" units based on the international standard "DITA." Reuse of documents and bulk reflection: Common items such as "safety precautions" that apply to hundreds of models are centrally managed. By modifying just one location, the latest information is automatically reflected in all linked manuals, completely eliminating the need for copy-paste tasks. 【Features】 ◎ Dramatic reduction in translation costs: The system compares with past translation data and automatically extracts only the differences. This eliminates the cost of translating duplicate sections twice. ◎ Management of large-scale documents: Even documents with thousands of pages can be accessed simultaneously by multiple editors in the cloud. Progress and exclusive control can also be monitored in real-time. ◎ Automatic layout (typesetting): There is no need for DTP work to flow in the translated text. Following the style sheet, multilingual PDFs can be output in bulk with just one click. ＼ For more details, please contact us or download the materials! ／
