Among its key features, we can mention single source publishing, structured editing, ready-to-use support for several publishing frameworks, extensibility, connectivity, and collaboration.

What is new in this release:
- oXygen XML Author version 17 sets the highest standard for XML authoring. It comes with important functionality updates and focuses on design to make your work not only productive, but also enjoyable.
- Retina/HiDPI icons make everything look crisp and beautiful, while the graphite color theme gives you a complete new view of oXygen. Toolbars are configurable down to action level and they put you in full control of your work environment.
- oXygen XML Author not only reports errors, it also helps you automatically correct them through the Quick Fix and AutoCorrect support. The new XML Refactoring tool extends the power of the Find/Replace action across multiple files by applying XML-aware operations through a user-friendly interface.
- DITA topics have a spectacular new look and guided DITA authoring eliminates training by presenting inline hints and actions. Now you can publish DITA to an improved and faster-loading WebHelp format and experiment PDF transformations reusing the same CSS files used for authoring. You can also switch between different DITA-OT versions and easily integrate new transformation types.
- Improved CSS support includes a new CSS Inspector view, LESS editing and automatic conversion to CSS when saving. Building eye-catching XML authoring interfaces can now be achieved by taking advantage of the new CSS support.
- The oXygen SDK contains many new API updates and the Web-based XML authoring SDK now provides new extension points to facilitate integration, as well as an adaptive user interface that is both mobile and desktop-friendly.
- oXygen version 17 includes new frameworks for supporting JATS, ISO StratML, and XLIFF. The DITA and TEI frameworks, as well as the SVN client have also been updated.
