Layer 02 · The publishing engine

ePublisher.

The deterministic publishing engine that produces every output the WebWorks pipeline ships. Author once in Markdown++, Word, FrameMaker, or DITA — publish to every output format, and ship the AI-ready Knowledge Base archive on every Reverb 2.0 build.

The engine · 01

The build that ships your help — and your AI.

Every Reverb 2.0 build produces the published HTML5 helpset and a matching Knowledge Base archive — markdown, one page per topic, with stable landmark IDs, ready to upload to WebWorks Platform. One deterministic pass; two artifacts; no second pipeline to maintain. The same source documents author the help your readers see and the input the AI retrieval layer answers from.

01 · Create your message

Author with your preferred source document type — Markdown++, Word, FrameMaker, or DITA XML.

02 · Generate advanced outputs

Apply your project Stationery and produce every output target — including the matching Knowledge Base archive for AI retrieval — in a single pass.

03 · Deliver over multiple channels

Ship responsive HTML output, PDF, ePUB, Eclipse Help, and legacy formats — all from the same source project.

Output formats · 02

Every output from one source.

Author once and publish to every channel your readers depend on — modern web, print, digital book, in-app help, and the established formats long-running deployments rely on. ePublisher generates each output from the same source project, with shared styling, conditions, and variables across the set.

Flagship · Modern web

Reverb 2.0.

ePublisher's flagship web output. A responsive HTML5 helpset with full-text search, ARIA accessibility, and an AI-ready Knowledge Base built on every publish — generated from the same source documents your team already maintains.

Capabilities · 03

Eight capabilities, one project.

01 · Single source, single pass

One deterministic pass produces every output target — modern web, print, digital book, in-app help, the established formats, and the Knowledge Files for AI retrieval — with consistent styling, conditions, and variables across the set.

02 · Multiple authoring tools

Author in Markdown++, Microsoft Word, Adobe FrameMaker, or DITA XML — or mix all four in the same project. ePublisher applies the same Stationery, conditions, variables, and output targets across every source.

03 · Deep customization

Tailor every aspect of your documentation through project Stationery — style mappings, target configuration, page templates — so output aligns with your design requirements and brand identity.

04 · Spotlight search

Define synonyms, set relevance rankings, configure interactive filters, and surface real-time search results in the published help — built into Reverb 2.0 on every publish.

05 · Automation

ePublisher AutoMap runs the publishing pipeline unattended — scheduled jobs, CI/CD-driven publishes, and AI-agent-driven workflows all use the same CLI to refresh the help and the Knowledge Base archive on the cadence your team already uses.

06 · Scalability

From a handful of documents to a multi-thousand-topic library, ePublisher handles the full set in a single project — using local resources, with reproducible build times for any project of any size.

07 · Analytics built in

Reverb 2.0 emits Google Analytics GA4 events out of the box — see what readers search for, where they land, and which topics carry the load.

08 · Publishing reports

Conversion reports across styles, links, filenames, topics, images, baggage files, and conditions — the state of the whole project at a glance.

Support · 05

Expert support and resources.

ePublisher comes with people attached — documentation, a real support team, and a community that answers.
