I know this is pretty broad, but our requirements are along the lines of:
1. Needs to support DTD and/or Schema validation
2. Needs to have WYSIWYG support or nearly so for those users who are
migrating from Word (mostly software engineers or similar).
3. Windows support mandatory (office requirement) and Linux support
preferable
(sanity requirement).
It will be used for writing a combination of User Documentation, Release
Notes, Technical Documentation and possibly training material based on the
above.
You might want to look at one of the DTD to HTML if your need is for
presentation.
I use emacs, dtd-mode from Tony Graham for editing DTD's.
Validation I'd take as a separate issue, using your favourite
parser.
dtd-mode has most of the features I need.
Downside? No wysiwyg mode. That's just frustrating working
with DTD's.
