    “It is a good tool for starters in DITA and structured documentation.very straight in to work. DTD creation is also simpler. Connectivity to PTC tools like Isodraw and creo is good”

    Ideal document creator for user manuals

    4.0

    “I like the capability of Arbortext to handle a large number of documents together. Creating DITA Maps and modules with the Arbortext editor is an easy task compared to other DITA-based authoring tools like TIM Infomanager, Framemaker, etc.”
