CambridgeDocs XML Conversion Tools

While there are significant benefits to having inter-operable structured data, we believe that a use of XML that is just as important is for the creation, storage, indexing, and publishing of documents - what is often referred to as “unstructured content”. Unstructured (and semi-structured) content today in corporations is kept in a number of locations and typically makes up about 80% of a company's overall data/information. Unlike structured data, which typically lives in databases and is well-ordered, unstructured content lives on individual file servers (as Microsoft Word or PDF files), in groupware databases (like Lotus Notes), on web servers (as HTML documents) or in other legacy systems.
