It features everything a serious publisher or writer could want. Overall, MadCap Blaze is a revolutionary solution to problems that have long plagued the publishing industry.

“Blaze is super for people who want to write and publish printed manuals. The content reuse features, such as multiple outlines, will save so much time. Its really the future!”

“With Blaze's Page Layout feature, I can reuse document elements quickly and easily. I love it!”

“I thought I couldn't live without FrameMaker, and then I met MadCap Blaze. With the addition of Blaze, MadCap now has a complete and comprehensive single-sourcing solution. With its emphasis on topic-based writing, I can easily use Blaze to arrange and rearrange information as I see fit, thus freeing my mind from the linear drudgery of bookmaking.”

“Using Blaze, I'm creating topic-based projects with several content-reuse options to leverage my content in several different ways. With Blaze, I no longer need FrameMaker to get high quality printed outputs for long technical documentation.”
