Subject:Software of Choice for Documentation From:Julie Zagorski <juliez -at- NIGHTOWL -dot- NET> Date:Fri, 11 Apr 1997 09:30:52 -0500
Hello All!
I'm about to contract for a small Windows 95 based company documenting user
manuals, training materials and marketing items. They currently utilize Office.
(I don't know if it's 95 or 97.) I don't foresee a need for on-line help at
this time but possibly in the future. Which leads me to the following
questions:
What do you all use for general documentation and why?
What are the costs associated with your choice?
If preparing for on-line help in the future, what would you use & why?
Please send your responses to me privately so we don't clutter the list. Thank
you sincerely for your help and direction.
Julie
