Re: documenting multiple editions of software

["Dominique Porta" <dporta68 -at- hotmail -dot- com>]

I would not send the complete documentation to a user of the standard 
edition.

Single-Sourcing would be the best solution for you.
If you intend to produce only PDF files and you use FrameMaker, you are 
saved. You only have to set Conditions specific to each variant, and launch 
the production with different cobdition settings. For the Online Help 
production, you could then use WebWorks Publisher. We use here a tool that 
we developed, called "t3 SmartDoc", which is based opn WebWorks Publisher, 
except that the writer does not have to bother programming WebWorks 
Publisher.

If you use Word, try Doc-To-Help, even if you do not have to produce Online 
help: you can set conditions in Doc-To-Help.
