Sorry, I meant you can't use ALT keys on the pods.
You should install AutoIt if you want to try it. It's free.

MindTouch and Confluence both let you reuse content on a static,
ad-hoc basis, comparable to FrameMaker text insets, but there's no
management of versions, branches, and so on, so if you have a lot of

I can second this. I used AutoIT to automate tasks and it is very easy to

I highly recommend getting the newest version of WebWorks ePublisher. You would
have to rebuild your stationery.
Are you not breaking pages at headings? Do you have some other approach to page
breaks?

An HTML Help alias file should have an .h extension. .hha does not
ring a bell. An HTML Help project has .hhc (TOC), .hhk, (index), and
.hhp (project) files, but not .hha that I know of.

I'm curious about that as well.Never heard of such a thing.
MIF2Go is much cheaper than ePublisher but I have no idea if either
supports page-break markers.

What are you using conditional text for? Few of the things I've used

Hi Robert
Thanks for discussing this - I really appreciate it.
Our company produces half a dozen different hardware products with similar
software feature sets. There's a lot of feature overlap. And we do new software
releases at least annually. We've got one set of source FM files, and we us
