iChange 3.1 Beta1

Serna Free for Mac OS X 4.1 is a powerful program for WYSIWYG XML authoring. Serna Free is intended for personal use at home, documenting open-source projects, education, and other non-commercial uses. Authors with virtually no XML experience can start working with structured content in a familiar environment that looks much like a conventional word processor.

Syntext Serna Free is intended for personal use at home, documenting open-source projects, education, and other non-commercial uses. Most people will find Syntext Serna Free easy to use as it hides all the complexities of the underlying XML technology. Authors with virtually no XML experience can start working with structured content in a familiar environment that looks much like a conventional word processor.
Serna employs XSLT and XSL-FO to render documents in print-like appearance. This approach gives a lot of opportunities for document rendering, such as localized generated content, profiled views, composition of a document from multiple chunks, in-line attribute editing, and others.
Serna offers exceptional DITA 1.1 support and comes with integrated DITA Open Toolkit. Flexible visualization of DITA maps and topics with the ability to resolve referred content and in-place editing of local conrefs greatly simplify DITA authoring.

Major Benefits:

• The Best of the Kind: If you are searching for a free XML editor for personal, educational or demonstration use, Syntext Serna Free would be the best choice.
• Works on All Platforms: Syntext Serna Free is available for all major platforms such as Microsoft Windows™ (2000, XP, Vista), Linux, Mac OS X, and Sun Solaris/SPARC.
• Renders Composite Documents in Print-Like Appearance: Composite documents are viewed as a transparent integrated whole in print-like appearance. This is not only visually convenient but also dramatically accelerates the authoring process.
