It is an amazing thing to see how much effort software developers put into creating a new program, designing a pretty interface for it, eliminating various bugs and filling it up with useful features. That said, not many of them remain that eager to make everything perfect right to the release date. The usual thing that gets neglected is the manual or online help as it is sometimes called. Help & Manual is the tool that will make you enjoy building a help file for your new or updated product.
Help & Manual is a help authoring tool that lets you create and edit your online help project and export it to a variety of file formats. The program can output your initial help file into Adobe PDF, HTML Help, plain HTML, Word, Winhelp and MMHelp file formats. The program's interface is easy to use - all you need is some experience with word processors. It boasts a built-in image editor, a screen capture tool and a Print Manual Designer. The latter is perfect for creating manual templates suitable for printing.
Among its most notable features, Help & Manual can export different parts of your source help file to different file formats so, for example, you can have your Overview & Features section printed out as a PDF file and include the whole help file in, say, HTML Help format. No need to write wordy emails to the boss telling them how much of the help file has been written: the program will generate a full report for you in a few seconds. Try this tool and explore its great features today!
