Description

Help+Manual is a fully featured documentation tool. It is as simple as a word processor but much more powerful. It gives you the power and flexibility of an XML editor. This tool also includes powerful features to generate and edit help and documentation files, including full support of multimedia and complex modular projects. It doesn't matter if you want to publish documentation for desktop, mobile, iOS, Android, Windows help, or PDF user manuals. Help+Manual makes it easy! Single source documentation is more than simply putting the same information in different formats. Conditional tags can be used to mark content and create different outputs for each publication channel. No post-processing is necessary. Help+Manual takes care of the complicated aspects of documentation generation. However, power users can access the code to modify topic and layout templates, and much more. Help+Manual offers the best of both worlds.
