While most software allows you to transfer the document into HTML, the language of the web, software does not enable you to make decisions regarding the structure and content of that document. Let Informative Edge show you how to integrate multimedia and build documents that do more than display text. An interactive document allows the reader to engage as much or as little of the document as he or she requires. For example, while reading a document on machine repair, the reader could view the audio or video showing how the machine operate when repair correctly. But multimedia is only the beginning.
Documents can also contain interactive links to databases.
Now when the person making the repair identifies the problem, he or she can see a list of all repairs made to the machine, who made the repairs and what parts were replaced. Then he or she can link to a parts list which links to an order information center. It s publishing on-demand for interactive documents. As customers look to the web to inquire about a specific product or service, they expect to find all the information necessary prior to purchase. The information can be presented in text and graphics, but is significantly enhanced when included with audio and video.
