To have used these and then generated yet another PDF based implementation guide made me want to cry. It's time for us to move away from Word and PDF and into the 21st century. Believe me, I know about the CDA Guide problem. I failed to crack that problem on two different attempts in two different organizations.Keith W.

MDHT produces DITA output from UML model publishing, which is then transformed to PDF and XHTML (and possibly other presentation formats). We intend to support CDA-based specifications for ONC spec factory and IHE, in addition to HL7. I have never seen a CDA IG created using the HL7 XML Content (i.e. MIF plus ad hoc XML).Dave Carlsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17127573473273833927noreply@blogger.com
