A key component of the dynamic content publishing software from PTC®, Arbortext® Editor™ features an integral connection to Windchill® and provides the starting point for creating publications out of reusable components.
Arbortext Editor looks and works like familiar word processing software while allowing authors to build finished documents out of reusable components, set up conditional text for producing customized publications, and embed data into documents through direct connections to databases, business systems and other data sources. With a familiar word processing interface authors can track changes, perform real-time spell checking, have multiple levels of undo/redo, cut and paste, and drag-and-drop all through dockable Word-like toolbars.
Authors can use Arbortext Editor to author business, technical and reference documents. Arbortext Editor lets authors create components of content, aggregate those components into publications, and make those publications dynamic and personalized.
