All measures of an enterprise to supply interactive electronic technical documentation (IETD), can only make an efficient use of it possible, if the tool for display is sufficient for this demand. For that reason, not only technical requirements must correspond to the state of technology, but also the different needs and usage scenarios of the end users must be considered.

The HiCo X-Browser® serves as multi-functional retrieval tool to represent electronic contents and illustrations with an optimized user interface. It was developed with the primary goal of supplying the user as fast as possible and efficiently with the required information and to process the latter by the most diverse functions and linking forms in a user-friendly manner.

Particularly helpful with this is:

• support of various views (publication, hardware and function view) on a publication,
• the linking between pieces of information out of different user views and
• the possibility to read the publication like a book.
