I'd like to echo what Esther said. I have been using it since approx.
May 2005 and am quite impressed with how easy it is to learn, the
flexibility of outputs, etc.
Previous documentation at the company was in winhelp format, from Word
documents. I converted the documents to RTF format and brought them
into Help & Manual. I didn't mind the time formatting, etc., because
the documentation basically needed a complete rewrite, and that give
me the opportunity to do so.
