Web Authoring Tools
| |||
For a seminar on Authoring Tools, we're studying the leading HTML editors and site authoring
systems. Here's the seminar outline from the conference brochure:
Just as ink-on-paper publishers use different desktop publishing tools to make different kinds of pages,
Web publishers now have a choice of HTML page make-up systems that run the gamut from the
simplest word processing conversion utilities to the most sophisticated WYSIWYG
(What You See Is What You Get) workstations. In this overview of Web authoring technologies
and products, Graphics Research Lab director and Web publisher Jack Powers describes
the various approaches to making Web pages, discusses the leading Mac, PC and
Unix-based offerings and suggests some guidelines for choosing the systems that
best fit your business. You'll learn about production management in Internet
environments and about the latest products that will boost the quality of graphic design
on the Web.
