ABSTRACT
The sophistication and visual richness of printed documents has made great strides over the last 25 years. The computerization of entry, layout and production has gone from a mostly manual process to a totally computerized process.
As documents start to contain multimedia components (sound, animation, video) and become totally "electronic", and as devices to view these new documents become more varied in size shape and capabilities, the authoring of these documents has become a difficult challenge.
This talk will address those challenges, and discuss whether the evolving web tools are moving in the right direction.
