Why FormatChecker?

One of the key causes of additional Desktop Publishing requirements for content creators and translation providers is bad formatting and design of original documents. With systems such as FrameMaker, layout repair issues can be a time-consuming and costly process. STAR's format checking tool delivers the solution by searching, finding and analysing format errors. Users learn how to amend and deliver higher quality format documents to their clients as they manually implement the suggested amendments.
FormatChecker scans documents for a variety of format and style errors. It can operate as an automated testing tool, finding errors at source, or as a training aid for your content creation team.
The interactive modes allow the creators to see the errors and amend them interactively, thus learning the new skills for better and cleaner content design.

FormatChecker is the intelligent and easy-to-use tool for checking the formatting of your documents while working in Microsoft® Word® or Adobe® FrameMaker®. FormatChecker helps you to create uniform documents in all areas of word processing and to permanently reduce the amount of editing work in successive documents. FormatChecker checks your original Word® / FrameMaker® documents so that formatting errors are not repeated in subsequent documents. In that way, even before starting work on the original document you can prevent error multiplication in word processing and can accurately estimate the ensuing amount of DTP work that will be necessary. You can also predict follow-on costs and reduce them by making corrections at an early stage.
