Publishing and editing
documents
on your
Enlighten.Net intranet
Enlighten.Net makes publishing documents to your intranet so easy that anyone can do it with only minimal training (assuming they are authorized to publish, of course).
Comprehensive organization |
Text files, Web pages, word processing documents, spreadsheets, presentations, CAD drawings, images, audio and video clips, Acrobat PDF files, and more: Enlighten.Net lets you publish them all, using the same tools and interface. This sophisticated publishing, editing, and document linking technology makes for one of the most user-friendly intranet content management tools available.
Drag-and-drop publishing
The fastest way to publish an existing document is simply to select the file with your mouse
in Windows Explorer, drag it to the NAVbar (Navigation Bar,
pictured at left), and drop it on the name of the site where you’d like it published.
The Publisher window (pictured inset, below) appears, allowing you to rename your file...and that's all there is to it!
(Well, actually, there is more: You can opt to create a link
to the file at the same time, if you so desire. It only takes
another split second.)
HTML Editor
If you'd rather create or edit an intranet document directly in Enlighten.Net,
that's a snap, too. Enlighten.Net's HTML Editor (included)
has an intuitive, word-processor style interface that produces
attractive and functional intranet documents—and users don't have to know HTML to use it.
(Users who do know HTML—your IT staff, perhaps your marketing deparment, and maybe that fresh-faced
college intern—can go ahead and hand-code in HTML...but only if they want to.)
Add links effortlessly
One of the most important benefits of an intranet is the ability to link related
information. Once you publish a file, you want others to be able to find it quickly.
In Enlighten.Net, you can just click a checkbox in the Publisher window to automatically add a link to your document from any existing intranet page capable of holding hyperlinks. That includes not only Web (HTML) pages, but also documents created in Microsoft Office applications, most desktop publishing applications, and more.

Linking to other intranet documents or Internet Web sites is just as easy. Simply navigate to the document or site and click the bullseye button in the NAVbar to store the path information for later use. Then, use the HTML Editor to edit the document on which you want the link to appear. Select your stored link from the convenient Add Link drop-down menu, and it will automatically be added to the bottom of the page. From there, you can easily move it wherever you wish. |
