From the makers of XMLSPY, AUTHENTIC 5 is a standards-based, browser enabled document editor, allowing business users to seamlessly capture thoughts and ideas directly in XML content through an easy-to-use word processor interface. The XML content can be saved to in any content management system, database, or XML repository, for later retrieval or transformation, unlocking corporate knowledge. AUTHENTIC 5's XML-centric approach to creating and editing content gives corporations substantial cost savings through automated data processing and validation, enhanced searching and indexing of content, and effective content reuse for publishing to the Web, print and other media. AUTHENTIC 5 forms provide the most flexible solution for editing and validating of web-based data and content. AUTHENTIC 5 fully takes advantage of the rich editing possibilities of XML and XSLT, which are not possible using simple HTML forms. Authentic 5 is a word-processor-like XML editor, supporting free-flow WYSIWYG text editing, form-based data input, graphical elements, presentation and editing of arbitrary repeating XML elements as tables, support for HTML and CALS Tables for advanced document layouts, real-time validation, and consistency checking using XML Schema, spell checking and more. AUTHENTIC 5's Visual approach to content editing abstracts away all of the technical details of XML from business users. AUTHENTIC 5 is ideally suited as an editor for use in Document Framework applications, which are standards-based XML content editing applications for use on the Web. Document Frameworks can be deployed using any programming language, server platform (such as Microsoft .NET or J2EE) and content repository. AUTHENTIC 5 is designed to work in conjunction with the leading content management systems and is available as Desktop Edition or Browser Edition. AUTHENTIC 5 supports the leading XML content repositories including Microsoft SQL Server 2000, Oracle9iR2, and many others.
