MadCap Flare How it works

 

Flare Diagram

 

1.Add content — Import legacy content from Word, FrameMaker or DITA, leverage existing HTML or XHTML pages, or import content from older authoring tools. Or you can create all new content using the world class editor built into Flare, or use a combination of content import and content creation as needed.
 

2.Define the look of the content — Edit style sheets, create page layouts, add snippets, variables, conditional text, and more, as needed.
 

3.Define the publishing rules — For each document you need to deliver (online, desktop, or print) you create a Publishing Target. This target contains all of the rules and attributes that make this one document unique and is the key to single-sourcing and multi-channel publishing with Flare. Create as many targets as you need for the project.
 

4.Create the target — Output to PDF, XPS, Word, FrameMaker, DITA, XHTML (cross-browser, cross-platform), Microsoft HTML Help, or DotNet Help. Specify the TOC for each target and, optionally, the location of the target when it's built. Flare even includes a command line interface so the creation and publishing of your defined targets can be automated, scripted, or even controlled remotely.
