WebWorks ePublisher is a help authoring tool for technical content teams that need to publish from one source to every output format their audience uses, including outputs built specifically for AI-assisted help. Why teams use ePublisher: • Combine any input format in one project: Markdown++, Microsoft Word, Adobe FrameMaker, and DITA XML can all feed the same source, so every writer works in the format they already know, with no conversion required. • Publish to twelve output formats from one project: WebWorks Reverb 2.0, WebWorks Reverb, PDF (XSL-FO and standard), Markdown++, eBook (ePUB 2.0), Microsoft HTML Help 1.x, Dynamic HTML, Eclipse Help, Oracle Help, Sun JavaHelp 2.0, and WebWorks Help 5.0, all generated from the same source. • AI-ready output by default: every Reverb 2.0 build generates a Knowledge Base archive alongside your HTML5 Help. It contains a clean, structured Markdown version of your published documentation, generated from the same source as your web help, so AI assistants and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems always work from the same up-to-date content your users see. • Restyle without touching your source: the Stationery system manages style mappings, target configurations, and page templates independently of your content. • Automate publishing: AutoMap runs unattended publishing jobs and integrates with CI/CD pipelines. • Preview as you work: real-time HTML preview reflects styling and conditional content changes immediately. What sets ePublisher apart: Most single-source publishing tools treat AI and LLM readiness as an add-on export. ePublisher builds it in from the start: every build produces a published HTML5 help site for your users and a clean, structured Markdown knowledge base for AI retrieval, generated from the same source, in the same build, with no separate pipeline to maintain. ePublisher ships as three products: Designer (full authoring environment), Express (lightweight publishing seat), and AutoMap (CLI automation for CI/CD and AI-agent-driven builds).
