Stilo is proud to present at this year’s LavaCon San Diego

LavaCon is a content strategy conference started in Hawaii to help organizations leverage state-of-the-art content technologies. However, LavaCon is more than just a conference. It’s a gathering place where content professionals network with peers and build relationships that will last for years to come.

Join Stilo’s Jackson Klein in the following presentation:

Overcoming Content Conversion Obstacles (an interview with Avalara)

DITA conversion is part of the larger DITA adoption process, it requires significant forethought, planning, and resources on its own. There are multiple challenges in the process of converting pre-DITA content, mainly the mapping between existing content to DITA’s topic-based structure.

In this session, we present real-life examples from Avalara, through our discussions with Michael Iantosca (Senior Director of Content Platforms), where we analyze conversion obstacles that Avalara encountered and how they overcame them.

Producing ideal DITA requires many key decisions that need to be fully understood before starting the journey. In this session, we discuss what you need to consider before, during, and after conversion in order to optimize your chances of success.

DITA for Sales People

Just as tech docs departments use DITA to provide relevant content to users, sales and marketing departments can benefit from the same techniques to target their content appropriately.

Avoid Mistakes – Analyze First
