HelpSmith is a help authoring tool that you can use to create CHM HTML Help files, Web Help systems, Printed Manuals, Adobe PDF documents, and Microsoft Word documents from a single source. HelpSmith includes a built-in Unicode word processor with Dynamic Styles and Spell Checker, support for Templates and Variables, Conditional Compilation, a single media repository to easily manage graphics and video files, and many other useful tools.

HelpSmith includes a modern user interface with a slight learning curve, which makes working with the help authoring tool as easy as working with a regular office application. Moreover, the "What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get" principle makes it possible for you to start writing help files and documentation without the need to deal with editing HTML or CSS code, or to learn any technical details.
