Thanks Terry
This sounds good, I couldn't spot how the original word docs would be
structured - are they separate files for each segment, then put together
using D2H?
I did look into WebWorks but thought that it would take me a while to create
the transition code that it would need.
Now that I can see that lots of people have found work arounds for word
problems I can avoid stepping into a whole new environment of FrameMaker.
Any comments on this issue from someone who think FrameMaker would be
better?
Julie

Hi Julie,
It sounds to me that you may want to do some single
sourcing, i.e. creating a single source file from
which you can create XML, doc, Java... outputs.
There are several applications around that can do the
job. I've used Doc-to-Help which proved adequate (once
some undocumented features were sorted out). But there
are plenty of others. I am by no means a web developer
but have created sound on-line help with D2H. I
managed to get the whole project sorted using an
evaluation copy for three months.
We have several experts on the list (including
AuthorIT, HDK, RoboHelp...) who may be able to offer
more advice on the topic.
HTH.
Cheers,
Terry
