Hi Suzy -
A few years ago I was charged with choosing a tool for
a client who had never had online help before. I did a
comparison matrix with features and cost, and my
client chose Doc-to-Help. From what I gather, RoboHelp
is better in many ways and has many more users, but
D2H was sufficient and less expensive. The manuals
were about 100-150 pages and sound a lot like the ones
you'll be converting.
Anyone else have experience with D2H as compared to
RoboHelp?
