Adobe Applications for Tech Writers

Thursday, October 4th, 2007 at 6:54 AM | No comments Category: Business, Meryl's Notes Blog, Tech, Writing

RoboHelp is a tech writer’s dream and nightmare. It makes some things easier while making some things difficult. When Adobe bought out eHelp, the industry hoped it would mean RoboHelp would get the help it needed to move to the next level. The first release under Adobe was disappointing.

This is the second Robohelp update for this year and it looks like the lift RoboHelp needs according to InternetNews. The application sells as an individual product or part of the technical communications suite, which includes Framemaker, Captivate (fantastic tool), and Acrobat 3D.

Tech writers have searched for applicationsĀ  competing with Robohelp and eHelp / Adobe has been lucky no company has stepped up (to my knowledge). Or do you know of one?
