May 2 at 3:00 PM PDT AdobeTCS webinar:

"Database Publishing with FrameMaker 11 – When your print color catalogue
is too important to give up"



Register at:   http://adobe.ly/WWfS5x



A classic customer tale – The company has taken the leap to move their
product data into an online stores system, so that their customers can
order their products online. Even though customers are ordering online,
they still expect to receive their 600 color page, 12,000 product catalogue
in print.



Marketing Team requirements:



== Must re-use content from their proprietary stores system for the print
catalogue



== Desire to have the print catalogue produced automatically



== Must be able to produce high quality color PDF’s for print publishing





Desktop Publishing Team requirements:



== System must be able to be easy for desktop publishing staff to use.



== Multiple users (normally four) must be able to work on the catalogue at
the same time during catalogue preparation.



== User may need to tweak content, styles and advertising randomly, just
before they go to print.



== Must be able to generate accurate Catalogue and Section level TOC’s
based on last second changes.



== Must be able to generate an accurate Parts Index for the entire
Catalogue.





Re-using the data that comes out of the stores database, Tammy will
demonstrate how by converting database fields into useful well-formed XML
that allows Adobe FrameMaker 11 to do what it does best, produce a robust
600 page catalogue ready for print.
