HP To Implement Global Document Management Solution
for UNIX Product Information Packaging and Distribution
Open Text Corporation and Hewlett-Packard Company have concluded
a Corporate licensing agreement for worldwide acquisition of Livelink
WorkSMART to implement a global virtual information repository for
HP's internal use. The repository will allow users of technical
documentation on HP's UNIX operating system (HP/UX) within
Hewlett-Packard to access these documents for research, authoring,
re-use and re-packaging uses.
"HP needed the ability to quickly convert multi-format documents,
including SGML, into HTML documents and provide an integrated
publishing solution," said Tom Jenkins, President and CEO, Open Text
Corp. "We demonstrated that our Livelink WorkSMART technology could
be integrated with HP's multi-format legacy documents and various
technologies - including Netscape, Framemaker and Dynatext indices
and viewers - into a single integrated work environment. The
resulting publishing solution will also generate CD ROMs of the
materials, to support HP's UNIX business worldwide."
Hewlett-Packard Company is a leading global manufacturer of
computing, communications and measurement products and services
recognized for excellence in quality and support. HP has 112,000
employees and had revenue of $38.4 billion in its 1996 fiscal year. |
