It features a new breadcrumb navigation feature in HTML-based outputs that appears at the top of each topic and shows the navigation patch from the top level topic, and a “Generate PDF” button which is installed in Word allowing users to customise a printed manual before creating PDF files.
These features give Doc-To-Help users a higher level of customisability, and make delivering effective Help systems and printed documentation to users easier.
Meanwhile the next generation of Doc-To-Help (code named Thunderbolt) was unveiled at the WritersUA conference. It will be the first authoring tool to implement a Microsoft Office 2007-style “look and feel” and to include “Ribbon-style” navigation elements. The new user interface also features a built-in XHTML-based editor, a topic grid for quick topic editing, a visual related topics editor, and drag-and drop link creation. The new version is planned for release during Summer 2007. To participate in the Doc-To-Help beta program, email [email protected].
