Publishing

Legal

Every year, a massive amount of legal information is published throughout the world. Every court decision, every new law, every amendment and every regulation must be created, revised, published, distributed and made available for research in print, Web and CD-ROM formats. Every legal contract and document must be carefully reviewed, validated and archived as legal precedent.

As the volume of vital legal information increases, those who create, manage and deliver it need to make it increasingly functional and accessible. Since legal cases can be won or lost based on the availability of relevant decisions or precedents, legal publishers can add value by embedding links across cases and source documents.

Featuring Arbortext XML authoring and publishing tools, the DPS has the necessary structure and metadata capabilities to support the vast interrelationships among cases and contracts. With our DPS, organizations can automatically publish and deliver tailored information in Web, print or CD-ROM formats from the same legal content source.

Our DPS also supports automation of many common legal processes; for example, generating notifications as contracts approach their automatic renewal deadline, or supporting detailed searches of information, such as finding all contracts related to a specific geographic region, or a specific legal issue, or in a specific timeframe.

PTC's Arbortext technology is used by major legal firms and corporations around the world to achieve greater efficiencies, faster processing, and more effective use of vital legal information.
