Hmmm...you're even more organized than I am. There's no point for me
doing a RoboHelp version, since many of the place I'm applying aren't
Windows shops, but you've given me something to think about. Thanks!
One thing I forgot to mention: what I like about the CD is that I can
include entire chapters instead of a few pages. Also, my collection
includes color, scanned documents, so some of the files are rather
large, despite my efforts to minimize the size. Even so, I still have
nearly half the CD free; I usually fill it by adding several Acrobat
readers for different platforms.
