We just left the wonderful world of Word and .rtf wrestling for the brave
new world of Frame and WebWorks, so I'd be interested in hearing your
reasons for changing.
It occurs to me--after getting to grips with the basics of WebWorks--that
what I *really* want is an easy-to-use online development tool that'll take
my *online source* and create really nice looking documentation for *print
and PDF*.

When we were evaluating tools, I was tempted by AuthorIt, but really put off
by the standard of the conversion to print doco. I know that it's probably
just a matter of developing nice print-oriented templates, but the only
good-looking print doco I've ever seen came from FrameMaker.

We're considering leaving WebWorks behind and acquire another Help
application. From what we've heard our options seems to be between RoboHelp
and HDK, of which we know absolutely nothing of either.

We use FrameMaker for word processing and we need the output to be one
single file.

Any thoughts anyone?

Warm regards
Anna
