Enhanced Microsoft Word integration in new MadCap Doc-To-Help 5
News|by Leanne Bevan|22 September 2017
MadCap Software has released MadCap Doc-To-Help 5 that enables you to now access the Doc-To-Help features menu directly within Microsoft Word.
The menu includes a “Getting Started” option where you can start a new project, or open a sample one. The help function is also located here. With the “Project” category you can schedule builds or access and create reports. There is also the “Team Authoring” submenu where you can connect to a team project, share and review your project, plus edit web repository settings.
The redesigned ribbon with Microsoft Word makes authoring a lot simpler so you can easily add and edit topics, input headings, change styles, add hyperlinks and glossary terms, plus much more.
The new Target Ribbon enables you to add, build and publish targets right from within the toolbar. Furthermore, with the new project panel, you are able to efficiently manage all of the Doc-To-Help elements.
These improvements will help you increase your productivity and efficiency when working on projects within Microsoft Word.
Watch this video to get an insight into the new features.
