My team has been using MadCap Flare with FrameMaker for years to create CHM and html help files. Once you have everything set up and know how to use it, creating online help in either (or both) formats is very easy.

Recently my laptop started having problems and they are moving me to a new laptop. The writer who installed epublisher on my laptop is no longer with the company and we can't find the CD with a serial number. I noticed a version of WebWorks comes on the FrameMaker 7.2 CD but it is called WebWorks Standard. I thought maybe this is where the WebWorks came from. Is WebWorks Standard the same as ePublisher pro? Even if it is, no serial number I find on any of our CDs seems to work with it and Adobe can't seem to help me. When I go to the WebWorks page I can't get help there either because I don't have a maintenance contract. I don't think WebWorks actually *wants* customers. When I try to find out how much it costs to buy a new copy, no prices are listed unless you have a sales person call you. We don't have phones in our office. I am pretty fed up with it all and am thinking of moving the help to a new platform. Can you suggest another help platform that works well with FrameMaker files and looks similar to ePublisher? I need to produce online help in both .chm files and html files. Pam Reichert _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to framers as jharvey at cambridgesoft.com.
