The PandaWare Company has upgraded to its cross-platform help authoring application, Simple Help Editor. Version 3.0 offers software application developers and help authors more flexibility for creating help content on multiple platforms.
In addition to text styling that Simple Help Editor has always supported, authors can now add custom HTML to display text in lists, tables, text boxes, or any other format that HTML supports. Other improvements include more options for displaying graphics in content, better error checking, and improvements in ease-of-use.
Simple Help Editor 3.0 can save HTML files for display in Apple Help Viewer or in a web browser. It can also prepare the files necessary for compilation into a CHM file to display the content in Windows’ HTML Help. In addition, it can save content as RTF, to facilitate leveraging it in other media.
A 30-day trial version PandaWare Simple Help Editor 3.0 is available for download and operates in demo mode until licensed. The demo version operates for 30 days and allows saving up to 15 pages in a Help book. Single-user licenses that allow unlimited use are US$50. A license covers one user on either a Mach or Windows PC. Registered users of earlier versions of Simple Help Editor can upgrade for $25.
