Resource Suggestions - Web enabled user guide

[Bateman]

I think you can build a table of contents and an index and link each item to the appropriate place in the document. Then a person would only have to look at the TOC or index, click on the link, and be where they want to be. Creating the links can take awhile, maybe a minute per link, but it really improves usability and cuts down on tech support calls;-)

Good luck!

  Subject: [stc-austin-general] Resource Suggestions - Web enabled user guide


  I am developing a user guide that will be posted on an internal web page. Currently the plan is to develop it in MS Word then post the PDF of the file.

  I will also be using that guide for training purposes.

  I was hoping that there are some resources that  you all could point me to that would allow me to create a more accessible version of the guide than what a simple PDF would provide. Ideally I could use that web document for presentation purposes during training.

  I feel like a newbie on this topic!

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you,
  Laura
