ANN:Welcome Back, Thanks, and Congratulations to Doc-To-Help
Doc-To-Help, a renewing TECHWR-L Sponsor, has gone Platinum.
This Platinum Sponsor is the premier authoring and publishing
tool in the market and sets the standard as the industry
leader. Since 1991, Doc-To-Help has been built upon solid
code, innovation, and rigid quality assurance testing making
it what it is today.
The latest release of Doc-To-Help 2009 included a built-in
XML-based editor, a tool for embedding dynamic Help in
applications, and many new authoring features. Authors
today recognize the benefits of XML-based authoring when
creating re-usable, portable, and formatted content.
XML-based authoring has traditionally come with its setbacks
since it requires specialized knowledge. Doc-To-Help 2009
lifts this constraint by providing a built-in editor for
XML-based authoring. With this new editor, you can work
in an easy-to-use authoring interface while enjoying
Microsoft Word-like style formatting. Doc-To-Help
automatically creates standards compliant XML and
CSS files as you write.
Doc-To-Helps advanced technology is apparent in
its XHTML functionality, Word support, and DynamicHelp
tool. You can convert existing Word documents to XHTML
in just one click. You can map Word styles to CSS styles
associated with the new XML file. Doc-To-Help is flexible
in the fact that it still allows Word users to work in
Word if they wish rather than converting to XML. Authors
and developers can now work seamlessly together with the
new ComponentOne DynamicHelp tool included with
Doc-To-Help 2009. This tool provides an easy way to embed
dynamically updating Help into your applications.
Doc-To-Help is the only vendor that gives you everything
you need to create your documentation deliverables in
one application. TECHWR-L members may enjoy a 30-day
full feature trial, which is available at http://www.doctohelp.com
We appreciate their commitment to the TECHWR-L community
and the entire industry.
