• For the documents you write, you hope that ???Unified template and output_T1 , and preferably ???Change theme any time_T2

• You want to focus solely on writing the content, and wish for the tedious tasks of content arrangement and formatting to be automated.

• You aim to reduce expenses on software tools like Word for documentation or Visio for diagramming, or simply find the formatting operations in these tools tiresome.

• You need support for cross-platform and cross-device document viewing and publishing.

• The output documents should provide interactive assistance tools during reading, review, or presentation—such as a table of contents/captions index, spotlight, laser pointer, footnotes, and so on.
