The nqDoc Editor is a flexible and easy-to-use documentation tool. It combines document processing and XML-based structured authoring with template based publishing to help you create documentation in multiple languages and formats.
The nqDoc Editor is a Document Processor. Setup your document following the WYSIWYM (What You See Is What You Mean) concept and deploy it using a format of your choice. By default DocBook, PDF, HTML and ASCII are supported. A single XML data source is used for all output requirements.
Team Work
Chapters of a manual can be moved to separate files. Due to the XML nature of nqDoc files documents can be checked into a versioning system like CVS.
Link Existing Fragments
The editor can link to existing documentation fragments, no copy - paste. For example software manuals often contain code snippets. The editor can link to existing JavaDoc comments. Custom JavaDoc-Tags are supported to partition and organize source code comments.
Extendable
Do you need include data that is stored in your business database or export to a special format? Publish your finshed documents using TeX ? The editor is highly extendable due to its extension points. Some free extensions can be found on the extensions page.
Content Focused
In contrast to WYSIWYG ("What You See Is What You Get") WYSIWYM ("What You See Is What You Mean") means that the displayed information only shows what purpose an element has (Chapter, Paragraph), and not how the documents final layout will look like.
