Every single aspects of the documentation output can be tailored to fit your design requirements. As a testimony of how powerful the template system is, HelpNDoc comes with the full source code for templates to generate an on-line HTML documentation or a specific iPhone designed web-site: everything is controlled by the templates.
CHM help file generation
Microsoft Compiled HTML Help files (*.chm) are bundled with every Windows application to provide technical assistance and user guidance. Microsoft provides the HTML Help Workshop software to create CHM files but it is a very old, complex, buggy and unmaintained piece of software. HelpNDoc works very hard to encapsulate everything for you and it becomes as easy as pushing a button to produce a standard redistributable compiled CHM file.
Standard HTML generation
Bring your documentation to an on-line server for millions of people to see by the click of a button. HelpNDoc will generate the most unbelievable HTML documents based on template instructions: Want a frame based documentation ? A full featured Web 2.0 web-site ? Need a commenting or notation system ? Perhaps add a special header or footer ? Just instruct HelpNDoc to do so and it will gladly comply.
Microsoft Word documents
If you need to integrate your documentation with existing Microsoft Word documents or further tailor it, HelpNDoc has you covered: it contains a generator able to produce standard Microsoft Word DocX from the exact same input you added in HelpNDoc. Generated documents can be easily customized using the powerful template system.
Produce PDF documentation
HelpNDoc knows how to generate PDF documentation and does it very well by providing amazing control over the process: choose the compression and encryption level, define user permissions, font embedding settings as well as Adobe Reader's viewer layout right within HelpNDoc.
