391.0. "HELP for SDMLHELP" by RUTILE::ARNOUX () Fri Dec 14 1990 07:21

    I need to create a document including capture screens formatted
    in VAX Document - no problem there.
    
    But I also need to create from the same source file an help library
    and here is the problem.
    
    I have no knowledge on how to create help files.
    
    - Is it possible from the same source to get a .PS or .HLP output?
    
    - What are the tags required to produce HLP?
    
    - How do I structure my document?
    
    - Etc.
    
    Any help will be appreciated.
    
    Thanks for your support.

391.1Take a look at the DOCUMENT notes fileRAGMOP::THOMASIn development...Fri Dec 14 1990 10:4213
    
    Hi Joelle,
    
    VAX DOCUMENT *does* support the creation of HLP files. Topics 1870 and
    1871 in the DOCUMENT (CLOSET::DOCUMENT) notes file deal explicitly
    with the HELP doctype. 
    
    The documentation for VAX DOCUMENT T2.0 in PS and Bookreader formats
    describes the tags and other details of the HELP doctype. The software
    and documentation for T2.0 are all announced in the DOCUMENT notes file
    (topic 2).
