single sourcing

publication Using a single original document set to generate

dead tree and on-line documentation, and usually also

on-line help. In practice, it most often refers to a

FrameMaker file set with conditional text which, when the

conditions are set appropriately, allows you to create

variants of the original document (e.g., for a product that

runs on different Unix platforms) as well as for different

media -- typically task-oriented on-line help to be accessed

under Microsoft Windows or from a web browser, linear

printed document, and HTML delivered via the WWW and/or

CD-ROM.
