HelpBuilder4.01.000

If you are a software programmer and have a lot of projects under development, you probably considered creating some sort of help documentation that can help the end users understand your product's purpose and operate it in a quicker, easier way.Although writing a help manual might seem a little bit tedious, there's no need to do it the old-fashioned way, not with all the specialized software solutions such as HelpBuilder just waiting to be discovered.

Generate help manuals

As its name strongly suggests, you can rely on this application if you need a quick way to build help documentation from scratch, since it provides you with everything you need in order to do so.You can either take each step manually or use the integrated wizard interface that guides you step-by-step during the content generation process. When you first launch the application, your computer will be scanned for help manual compilers and you'll be notified in case none is detected.

Supports a limited number of formats

Unfortunately, creating a help manual with this application isn't as easy as you'd imagine, since most of the formats it features support for aren't exactly common, except for the BMP one.Aside from the BMP format mentioned above, the application needs a series of content, topic and header documents that you might not have at the moment. This might be a great inconvenient even for advanced users. However, the app features support for TOCs (Table of Contents), lets you define macros and features a spell-checking utility.

Help documentation generator for the advanced

All in all, if you're looking for a way to create help documentation for your product, you might want to give HelpBuilder a try. Even though it features support for a rather small range of formats, you might be able to create the needed content in a much faster way than by doing it all manually.
