Hi
I've recently started work as a technical writer and have found this list
very useful so far. I thought I would come out of lurk mode now and see if
anyone can help.
I am currently producing the documentation for a new component based piece
of software written in Java. I am using FrameMaker to create the paper
manuals and other manuals for electronic distribution in PDF. What hasn't
been decided on is how to produce the online help. There is some
reluctance to use JavaHelp at the moment and I was wondering if there are
any components available to display PDF within Java apps.
