Adobe Contribute CS3 (Mac)

Adobe Contribute CS3 software enables anyone to quickly and easily update existing websites and blogs. With Adobe Contribute CS3, content authors can post and publish content to multiple websites and blogs from a single application or publish directly from within Microsoft Office applications. Website administrators can reduce their workload by distributing work among content contributors or designated website editors. And because Adobe Contribute CS3 works seamlessly with Adobe Dreamweaver software, website integrity is maintained-even when multiple authors update content across the site.

• Unified web publishing
  Simplify the editing process by enabling content contributors to update multiple websites and blogs from a single application without learning HTML. Taking advantage of improved rendering with Adobe Dreamweaver software, true WYSIWYG authoring capabilities make it easy to publish new or update existing content in three simple steps: Just browse to the website or blog, make the changes, and click Publish.
• Maintain website integrity with Dreamweaver integration
  Adobe Contribute CS3 software uses Dreamweaver CS3 templates, ensuring accurate updates to websites designed with Dreamweaver. Website look and feel are never compromised, even when multiple authors update content across the site. Authors can update only areas designated by the designer or webmaster, so the site always appears as the designer intended. And just like Dreamweaver, Contribute preserves code quality and formats throughout the editing process.
• Control website authoring and publishing permissions
  With Adobe Contribute CS3, site administrators can ensure that only authorized contributors are able to update specified website content. Fine-grained permissions enable administrators to define who can edit and publish content on a website or within a specific web page. Administrators can also limit certain users to editing only. If required, administrators can roll back to a previous version of the web page with just a few clicks.
• Quick web page and blog posting from Microsoft Office
  Publish content directly from within Microsoft Office applications using the template of your choice, significantly reducing your editing time. Contribute CS3 adds buttons to your Office applications that allow you to publish directly to a website or post to a blog without opening Contribute.
• Integrated with Internet Explorer 7 and Firefox 2
  Use Contribute browser buttons to edit the page you are browsing or to post its content directly to a blog. The latest versions of Internet Explorer and Firefox browsers are now supported.
• Help users create frequent and effective blog entries
  Adobe Contribute CS3 makes it easy for site administrators to get users started with blogging -- using the same familiar environment they use to update website content. Users can work offline and then publish when ready, reducing the risk of losing content due to a lost connection or unintended keystroke. Users can easily add tags to blog entries and can use any tag repository to help others find the blog content. With Adobe Contribute CS3, users can post to multiple blogs from a single application, helping to save time and money. Plus, multiple users can simultaneously post new content to the same blog to keep content fresh.
• Easily add rich media and FLV files
  Include rich media, such as FLV files, in websites and blogs by simply dragging the file onto the web page or blog entry during edit. Contribute CS3 automatically uploads the file and posts it to the site on publish.
• Compatible with Windows Vista and Intel based Macs
  Contribute CS3 works on Intel based and PowerPC Macs, and on Microsoft Windows XP and Windows Vista systems. Significantly reduce editing time by publishing content directly from within Microsoft Office applications or from Internet Explorer 7 or Firefox 2.
