Stilo International plc
("Stilo" or the "Company")
IBM contract awarded
The board of Stilo has today announced that IBM has placed an initial order with Stilo for the conversion of 30,000 pages of Adobe® FrameMaker® content to the IBM DITA (Darwin Information Typing Architecture) standard. The order was placed following rigorous trials of the Stilo Migrate online DITA conversion service by the IBM Corporate User Technologies Team, based in the USA.
The Stilo Migrate service enables customers to upload Microsoft Word and FrameMaker documents over the internet and convert them to DITA on a pay-as-you-use basis. The recently announced Migrate Rules Editor enables non-technical users to adjust conversion rules and incrementally improve the quality of the DITA output generated, significantly reducing the need for any manual post-processing.
Commenting on IBM's selection of Migrate for DITA conversions, Les Burnham, CEO of Stilo International, said: "It has been a pleasure working closely with the IBM team over recent months. IBM is the originator of the DITA standard, so there can be no organization in the world that better understands the complexities of converting source documentation to be compliant with mature DITA publishing processes. The Migrate conversion service continues to improve, and offers potential new customers an accelerated, low-cost option for their DITA conversion requirements."
