Published: February 2009 Type: Business guidance Area: Document management Summary The importance of ‘standard’ document formats is growing. This paper seeks to raise awareness of the development and increased use of new open document formats, and the implications these can have for businesses. It is aimed at managers who need to access information held in office documents, perhaps as part of a document management system, as part of a business process, or to exchange data between different office applications. With these new open standards for document formats, there are exciting opportunities for better integration in this area. Users need to be aware about what is available and what will be in the future, and the implications of these changes. This paper is the latest in a series published by Intellect’s Document Management Group, which seeks to demystify document management, promote its benefits to the wider business community, identify common problems and propose solutions to some of the difficulties faced by organisations who are newly adopting document management solutions, as well as organisations who are looking to upgrade their document management facilities
