在數位時代來臨後，每天都有大量的電子文件被人使用，也讓人花費許多的時間製作及管理電子文件，因此減少這些花費有其必要。一般的電子文件儲存格式如Word，大都將文件的內容、結構與樣式混合在一起，不方便只取出一部份來再利用，且用全文搜尋的方式查詢特定的內容，耗力費時。
Extensible Markup Language (XML)是目前網路上資料交換的主流格式，其具有結構的特性有助於文件的查詢和結構的再利用。我們使用XML與其相關技術，開發一個可供多人在網際網路使用的XML文件再利用軟體工具。此工具能再利用文件的內容、結構與樣式，並透過Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations (XSLT)將XML文件轉換成HTML文件，讓不懂XML語法的使用者也能閱讀與編輯XML文件。
我們的工具也提供所見即所得(what you see is what you get)的編輯環境，讓使用者能立即看到新增或更改文件樣式的結果。以原生型(native) XML資料庫儲存XML文件，可快速地檢索與存取特定的內容。使用者可透過此工具儲存、管理、查詢與分享彼此的文件，能重複使用舊文件指定的結構或內容於新文件，減少製作文件的時間與成本。

Since the digital age has come, people use a great number of electronic documents every day and spend a lot of time in producing and managing them. It is necessary to reduce the cost of processing documents. Formats of electronic documents, such as Word, store the content, structure, and style of a document in one file. It is hard to take out only one part to reuse. In addition, using full text searching to find a specific content in a file is time-consuming.
Extensible Markup Language (XML) is the most popular format for data exchange on the Internet. It is useful for finding contents and reusing the document structure. We use XML and associated technology to develop an XML document reuse tool for concurrent accesses over the Internet. This tool can reuse documents’ contents, structures, and styles. Furthermore, it can transform an XML document into the HTML format by using Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations (XSLT) to help users who have no ideas about XML to read and edit XML documents.
The tool provides a “what you see is what you get” editing platform, and lets users see the addition or modification of styles immediately. We choose a native XML database as a repository to store XML documents. With this tool, users can store, manage, search, and share their documents. Thus, we can reduce the time and cost of producing new documents.
