The Help Generator offers a comprehensive suite of tools designed for creating CHM help files, web-based assistance, and printed user manuals. Its contemporary editing interface, influenced by Office aesthetics, is packed with features that enhance productivity and ensure high-quality results.

With the Help Generator, you can create standard Windows help files, often referred to as CHM files or compiled HTML help, as well as online help for any Windows application. The accompanying add-in generates a detailed topic page for each form within your application, complete with a title, a screenshot featuring an image map, and sections dedicated to all controls. Notably, the pages produced by this add-in are automatically integrated with your application, providing immediate F1 support for context-sensitive help.
