Hello everyone I'm a bit lost. My company (freight forwarder) asked me to write a manual for their software, which shall include a lot of printscreens. I downloaded FrameMaker trial version and find it with it's book tools to be very good for the printout version. But they also want to incorporate in the programme, like i.e. in MSWord the 'Content and Index' and the Context help with a 'What's this?' Icon. Is it possible to creat those also with FrameMaker? Alternatively, I'm checking out AuthorIt, with which you can generate 1. Word Document, 2. Help Document and 3. HTML Document. Does someone have any experience with writing a softwar manual and can give me some recommendations? Thank you so much in advance!
