August 4, 2011, Swindon, United Kingdom – Stilo International (LSE:STL) has announced today that Cisco Systems, Inc., the worldwide leader in networking that transforms how people connect, communicate and collaborate, has placed an order for Migrate, the world's first cloud content conversion service.

The initial order is for the conversion of 20,000 pages of legacy Adobe® FrameMaker® content to the DITA (Darwin Information Typing Architecture) standard.  The Migrate service will help Cisco accelerate the roll-out of their DITA publishing plans across the organization.

Commenting on the order, Les Burnham, CEO of Stilo International, stated: "The Cisco Content Management Services team has achieved impressive and rapid results with the implementation of their new DITA CMS, and is highly regarded within the DITA community for their technical expertise.  We look forward to working closely with the team, helping them to lower their conversion costs, improve turnaround times and reduce to a minimum the requirement for manual pre-processing or clean-up tasks."

Stilo's Migrate DITA cloud conversion service enables users to upload documents including Word, FrameMaker and InDesign over the internet and convert them, in real time, to DITA on a pay-as-you-use basis.  The Migrate Rules Editor enables non-technical users to interactively adjust pre-configured conversion rules and incrementally improve the quality of the DITA output.  Text and tables can be converted to standard or specialized DITA, images to SVG and equations to MathML and highly complex conversion rules can be readily configured.  The Migrate conversion service is extremely scalable and provides benefits to organizations of all sizes, no matter how large or small the conversion project.
