Clearly not a tool for occasional users but for full-time technical writers. Excellent single source publishing features. Can create PDF without the need of an external text processor, but can produce full-featured Microsoft Word files as well. Other advanced features are its DITA import (including relation tables), the option to have different structures for online help and printed user manuals generated from the same source, and the professional translation workflow. Concept markers make it easy to add structured related-topic links. Within browser-based help files, sophisticated search features can be implemented. “MadCap Contributor” provides a simplified user interface for casual content contributors, such as subject matter experts and reviewers. The optional add-on product “MadCap Pulse” provides social collaboration features, such as comments, and can track reader activity. The optional add-on product “MadCap Central” adds a cloud-based platform for content and project management, hosting, publishing, task tracking, user permissions, and team collaboration. Price level: high https://www.madcapsoftware.com Flare plug-ins and tools https://www.improvementsoft.com For a long time, RoboHelp clearly was the market leader of help authoring tools. Today, some of its competitors have caught up or even outperformed it. However, RoboHelp’s Dynamic Filters are an interesting unique feature, which makes it possible to apply conditional text at runtime. On the downside are the lack of advanced linking features and the fact that the program by default not only analyzes your user behavior but even analyzes the files (the content) that you create and sends information on this to Adobe. You can turn this off, but you need to do so manually. Price level: medium https://www.adobe.com/products/robohelp.html Very efficient and easy to use. The output is highly customizable, especially on the HTML side. In addition to various help formats and ebooks, Help & Manual can also create high-quality PDF manuals without the need of using an external text processor, such as Microsoft Word, and without the need of an external PDF generator, such as Adobe Acrobat. Help & Manual provides excellent support for single source publishing, including user-defined builds, snippets, conditional text with IF THEN ELSE statements, and variables. Other advanced features are the XML-based translation workflow, team authoring support, and the possibility to integrate with version control systems. You can run complex builds from the command line, or you can set up publish tasks that generate various documents in one go. For example, you can generate the online help for a Standard version of your product, the online help for a Professional version of your product, and printed user manuals (PDF) for both versions as well—all at a press of a button and from the same source file. Help & Manual also is the only help authoring tool that comes with a full-featured screen capture tool. Price level: medium Description supplied by vendor: help & Manual plug-ins and tools https://www.helpandmanual.com/products_hm_pluspack.html Has the unique feature that you can use various editors for editing your content: Doc-To-Help’s build-in WYSIWYG editor, Microsoft Word, or any HTML editor. You can even use different editors within the same project. This is particularly interesting when combining texts from different sources and contributors. Thorough and uniform support for conditional text, variables, and text snippets in all editors. Good possibilities for single source publishing. Other special features are the partly automated documentation of source code and program libraries, Doc-To-Help’s component that allows developers to easily embed a dynamic help pane in the application’s interface, and the built-in team authoring support. Creating printed user manuals (or PDF) requires Microsoft Word. Unlike some other help authoring tools, Doc-To-Help cannot create PDF files internally. Price level: medium HelpStudio One of the few tools that provide built-in support for translations. Projects can either be translated in HelpStudio right away, or be exported to XML, translated by an external translator with the help of a translation memory tool, and then imported back into HelpStudio. Another interesting feature is the possibility to create your own widgets, which simplifies creating and editing complex content such as drop down sections, thumbnail images, note boxes, includes etc. Good single source publishing capabilities; PDF output may have a different structure than the HTML output. The layout of the created PDF files, however, cannot be customized as flexibly as with some other help authoring tools. Excellent HTML-based editor with full code control. Price level: medium
Some tools listed in other sections partly provide similar features. Also look at: Other general help authoring tools Web-based help authoring tools and online documentation tools |
The following programs are clearly less powerful than the market leaders, but they’re also easier to use. For a small help project, using one of these tools can be an economical alternative. HelpNDoc Straightforward help authoring tool, which creates CHM, WebHelp (HTML), Qt Help files, ePub and Kindle (MobiPocket) eBooks, customizable PDF and Word files, and Markdown files. Supports styles, variables, and conditional content. Styles are also included in the Word export, which makes it fully flexible. Templates can be edited. Also exports code snippets to call online help (C/C++, Fortran, Delphi/Pascal, Power Basic, Visual Basic; other languages can be added via the built-in template engine). Price level: low Description supplied by vendor: OfficeHelp Uses Microsoft Word for editing the documents. Many useful functions add to or optimize the built-in functionality of Microsoft Word, such as marginalia, conditional text, problem-free handling of numbered lists, and a comfortable cross-reference function. The created online help files use a tab-based information design that makes it possible to provide a flat and simple table of contents even for extensive documents. Price level: medium https://dokay.de/en/officehelp-en Beschreibung des Herstellers: Provides all the basic features that you would expect from a professional, modern XML-based help authoring tool, such as full support of styles and templates, variables, conditions, an optional command line interface, and the ability to work with external version control systems and translation memory tools. Creates all of the general output formats, such as WebHelp, CHM, PDF, and Word. Price level: low Description supplied by vendor: Doc-O-Matic Author Despite the comparatively low price, all important features that you can expect from a professional help authoring tool are present: Conditional text, text snippets and variables, complete control over layout and formatting both in HTML and PDF, Unicode support, XML source files, and the creation of full-featured PDF manuals without the need for any additional tool or converter. Price level: low Foliant Produces HTML, pdf, and docx from Markdown source files. Integrates Pandoc for pdf and docx and MkDocs for HTML. Supports snippets and conditional content. Price level: free (open source) https://github.com/foliant-docs/foliant GitBook Documentation format and toolchain using Git and Markdown. Provides web or desktop editors (Markdown or AsciiDoc), team authoring support plus version control and multi language support. Can output HTML, PDF, ePub, or Mobi. Templates for API documentation, knowledge bases, and manual documentation. Price level: diverse https://github.com/GitbookIO/gitbook Helpinator Feature-rich help authoring tool, which can export to CHM, HTML, RTF, PDF, QtHelp, OracleHelp, JavaHelp, HelpGUI, EPUB, MOBI, and WordPress. Topic templates can be edited to customize the output. Supports styles, variables, snippets, conditional text (no nested conditions), projects in several languages, and XML export/import. Compilation can be run from the command line. Price level: medium Fast-Help In some ways quite similar to HelpStudio. Lately there haven’t been added many new features to Fast Help any more. Price level: medium Help Crafter Basic help authoring tool for the Mac. Price level: low DA-HelpCreator Simple commercial static site generator that uses Markdown files. Other than most open source help generators that use Markdown, this tool comes with its own built-in editor and can easily be installed with the help of a Windows setup program. Creates static HTML pages or CHM files. No export to PDF or other printable formats. No advanced features. Price level: low WinCHM Pro Basic help editor with full HTML code control, template support for HTML page design, and PDF export. No advanced features, such as conditional text. Compilation can be run from the command line. Price level: low CHM Editor WYSIWYG editor for editing CHM files. Also supports machine translation of existing CHM files via internet machine translation services. In addition to CHM, the Professional version can export to PDF, DOC, and HTML. Price level: low
Some tools listed in other sections partly provide similar features. Also look at: Web-based help authoring tools and online documentation tools |
The following tools can create some basic documentation semi-automatically. They do this by capturing screens from the software, by recording keystrokes or mouse movements, or by analyzing an application’s internal resource files. While this approach usually doesn’t achieve the same quality as manually written documentation, it can be an efficient way to obtain some preliminary documentation or to produce documents that supplement a training course, for example. Also, you can use the output as a good starting point and add more information later. Dr. Explain Automatically captures all windows of a program, adds callouts to all controls visible in each window, automatically labels these callouts, and then builds a fully linked online help system. All you need to do is to revise the automatically added text and to add some more detailed descriptions where this is necessary. In addition to CHM and WebHelp, you can also create a printed user manual (PDF or RFT format) from the same text base. Along with its technical writing platform TiWri also supports collaboration (“Ultimate” version only). Price level: medium ClickLearn Records a workflow in popular business software and turns the recording into multi-language learning materials, such as written instructions, video walk throughs, simulations, and on-screen assistants. For example, works with SAP, Oracle, IFS, Microsoft Dynamics, and Microsoft Office, but also with custom WIndows and web applications. Price level: high https://www.clicklearn.com/go/indoition Description supplied by vendor: Includes a help capture tool that generates topic pages of any part of a Windows user interface. For some program development platforms, most notably Visual Studio, there is an add-in available that scans the application user interface, generates a topic page for each form and links the pages for context-sensitive help. Many general help authoring features are also available, so this software is actually a mixture of a rapid help development tool and a conventional help authoring tool. Price level: low ScreenSteps Enables you to take screen captures of a software and to easily create step-by-step instructions based on the images. When the documented software changes, screen captures can be updated with minimum effort. Especially useful for creating task-based documentation. Price level: high Flowshare Creates step-by-step software guides by capturing the actions performed on screen. Price level: medium Datango Performance Suite From a series of screen captures builds screencasts, interactive tutorials, and also printed documentation. Price level: not published Epilogue Opus Records the actions performed in a program, from this creates documentation in various output formats, and delivers the information to the users. Price level: not published https://www.epiloguesystems.com iorad Creates online tutorials based on screen captures. Price level: high (There is also a free version available for public tutorials.) DokuTool Makes it easy to create simple, short instructions based on annotated screen captures, which can be an efficient solution particularly for support purposes. Can export to HTML and PDF. Price level: low https://www.horland.de/dokutool.html
Some tools listed in other sections partly provide similar features. Also look at: HelpSmith (can add screen captures with automatic reference labels) |
The following help authoring tools use Microsoft Word or FrameMaker for editing the texts, or convert existing Word or FrameMaker user manuals into online help: WebWorks ePublisher Easy to use, unmatched in performance but also in its price. Available in versions for Microsoft Word, FrameMaker, and DITA-XML. If you have the appropriate licenses, it’s even possible to generate common online help from different source formats. High flexibility coupled with low customization effort. Can even handle messily formatted documents quite well. Price level: medium Adobe FrameMaker FrameMaker itself has some good export options for creating online help. Price level: medium Mif2Go Converts FrameMaker files into compiled online help (CHM), browser-based help, DITA, and Microsoft Word. Rather complex installation and customization required. Uses a proprietary “Document Coding Language” (DCL) for configuration. Mif2Go is interesting especially when you need custom conversions that aren’t provided by existing converters, or when you need to closely integrate a conversion into a specific production processes. Price level: free (freeware) DocxManager Website generator and document manager for Word documents. Lets you manage and edit each part of a long text as a separate document, and then merges them into one. Price level: low Help Producer Merely adds a small toolbar to Microsoft Word. However, don’t be fooled: Help Producer is surprisingly powerful, and can be integrated seamlessly into Word-based workflows. Extensive customization possibilities (templates, style sheets, themes). COM scripting object model lets you control the output and automate complex tasks. Price level: medium https://www.mgtek.com/helpproducer WordToHelp Converts Microsoft Word documents (Doc, Docx) to CHM and to WebHelp. Price level: low http://www.softany.com/wordtohelp/ Doc Converter Pro Converts Word-Files or PDF files to HTML-files (but does not build a help system from these HTLM files). Templates give you control over how the documents are converted. Price level: low chmProcessor Generates compiled help (CHM), JavaHelp, or browser-based HTML help from Microsoft Word files. Splits the source documents by title formats. Price level: free (open source) http://chmprocessor.sourceforge.net NüHelp Basic converter for transforming Microsoft Word and HTML files to a CHM help file. Price level: free (open source) https://sourceforge.net/projects/nuhelp/ Mammoth .docx to HTML converter Aims at producing simple and clean plain HTML files from *.docx files.

Document! X Automates the process of creating and maintaining documentation particularly for complex components or XSD schemas. High degree of automation and flexibility. Translations into foreign languages can be done either with the help of a built-in translation editor, or via XML export/import. Price level: medium Doc-O-Matic Professional Professional documentation tool, particularly for source code documentation and for developer documentation. HTML output can be customized to a high degree. Good support for single source publishing. Can also create high-quality PDF manuals. Price level: medium GhostDoc Generates properly formatted method and type documentation from source code comments. Allows you to edit documentation in WYSIWYG fashion, with the changes persisted back to the XML documentation in the code. The GhostDoc Pro Enterprise Edition also includes a feature that lets you add conceptual content pages in your help files. Outputs to various online formats. The built-in spelling checker can check both your comments and your code for misspellings. Price level: low West Wind HTML Help Builder Although this tool shows its strengths especially when it comes to documentation of source code and program libraries, it also meets the requirements of technical writers who create end user documentation. Supports discrete information types and templates and gives you full control over the generated HTML code. Can also create clean Microsoft Word documents, including paragraph and character styles. Another advantage is the built-in multiple user support. A major disadvantage of the program is that it doesn’t support conditional text and text variables. Price level: medium VSdocman Directly integrated into Visual Studio. Can automatically read namespaces, types and their members and documentation comments in your code and transform them into MSDN-style documentation. In addition you can also also add and edit your own topics. For advanced editing and further processing, you can optionally export to Help & Manual (another help authoring tool; see above) and to XML. Price level: low Documentation Insight Delphi source code documentation solution. Price level: low Stoplight Automatically creates documentation from OpenAPI files.
