I'm looking for a style checker tool that dynamically checks whether DITA-structured text complies with terminology databases and style guides. Something that does the following:
Original: "Choose Print from the File menu to print the doctor's contact details. A dialog appears. Click on the Print button." Corrections suggested by the style checker: "Choose *File *> *Print *to print the *physician*'s details. A dialog box appears. Click *Print*.", where: * "doctor" is replace with "physician" to comply with the terminology database. * The syntax is changed ("Choose File > Print...") to comply with the company style guides. These are the basic feature requirements. It would be really nice if the style checker can do the following too: * Check multilingual terminology databases * Check multiple style guides in order of a user-defined preference. For example, check Microsoft Manual of Style first, then the Apple Publications Style Guide and, if there's a conflict, give preference to style guide A.
