Title: Looking for an adequate Document creator.
Post by: jasendorf on October 21, 2003, 05:09:30 pm

Does anyone know of or have a similar program to helpscribble (http://www.helpscribble.com/) but is free.  I'm not looking for an API documentor but rather a features/user manual documentor which will create multiple help formats.

Thanks,  John

Well the correct way to go would be to use DocBook stylesheets and XML

But getting that really right is very very painful - Plain html still remains the best bet - html can be converted into almost any format

Hey, found this:

Docreator (http://www.alexking.org/index.php?content=software/phpdocsystem/content.php)

Its PhP based, looks simple. If not then search on www.hotscripts.com There are many... good luck. :)
