DL Composer quickly and accurately publishes PostScript and PDF files from SGML input, DTDs, and FOSI (mil-28001) style sheets. These formats specifically adhere to the publishing standards of the US Department of Defense, as well as most major airline manufacturers.

DL Composer creates output for printing, onscreen preview, or both.

Large, complex documents are DL Composer's forte. Typesetting features include:

• 10,000+ row tables

• 15,000+ page manuals

• Loose-leaf (aka change page only) publishing: DL Composer is the only SGML/FOSI composition engine in the world that can perform loose-leaf publishing

• CALS tables

• Footnotes

• Cross references

• Floating tables and figures

• . . . and many other composition features

The United States Department of Defense (DoD) requires all of its  manuals to exist as Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML) and as Format Output Specification Instance (FOSI or MIL-28001) when published. US DoD publishers use DL Composer to maintain these standards.

Several of the world's largest aircraft manufacturers use DL Composer to produce manuals with the high levels of accuracy and reliability required for their field. DL Composer is the chosen composition engine for corporations with these requirements.
