AND DOCUMENTATION

Experts in technical publications

Sonovision have supported 100+ clients worldwide with their technical documentation requirements for over 70 years. We provide a first-class service across all sectors and have built a reputation which is second-to-none with our clients – from small enterprises to global organisations.

Technical Authoring

Sonovision has a proven track record of preparing a full range of technical publications – from comprehensive system manuals to individual guides for small and large projects. We can develop any type of printed or online documentation, including S1000D Data Modules, AESPs, BRs, APs, and Interactive Electronic Technical Manuals (IETMs) to name a few.

Our in-house technical experts apply industry-specific knowledge and expertly manage all phases of the production life cycle, from basic data analysis to preparation and delivery.

Support for DITA (Darwin Information Typing Architecture)

DITA is a standard for creating and publishing topic-based content. Traditional book layouts include chapters, sections, and subsections, but other types of documentation (e.g. web pages, online help) are structured differently. DITA works by organising information into small chunks which can be assembled in many different ways, allowing authors to re-use the same information for different types of documentation. Single source technologies such as DITA, allow us to create your information once and re-use it as many times as required, keeping costs down and making translation simpler. Adopting DITA improves productivity, content accuracy, content repurposing, and ultimately reduces costs.

Interactive Electronic Technical Manuals (IETMs)

Sonovision responded to early demands for digitised documentation and can deliver documentation in various formats including SGML, XML, HTML and PDF, tailored to our client’s requirements.

Multimedia is having a major impact on the Technical Publications sector and we are expertly placed to help our clients with their legacy migration, data capture and conversion from traditional production methods to the multimedia field. This technology opens up many opportunities for producing user friendly documentation that can be delivered on CD-ROM or online.
