More often than not, when clicking on the Help section of an installed app, you get to see a file that is stored on your desktop. Considering that apps are starting to have mobile counterparts, being able to access an online help section with all updated information cannot be stressed enough. And this is exactly what Adobe RoboHelp, the veteran of Adobe suite, can help you achieve.

Perhaps one of the most noteworthy features of the tool is the full support for mobile-friendly standards, namely HTML5 and CSS3. Although the content is still created in XHTML format, the file becomes the single source that distributes the content for multi-screens and platforms.

The entire thing can be configured from the Screen Profile section Screen Layouts section where you can make sure that the content is properly displayed and can be accessed on Android tablets and phone, iPads, iPhones, Kindle Fire, and desktop.

Similarly to predicting the end of Flash, Adobe seems to be thinking of the future when it comes to this tool. More precisely, the app allows you to create content with snippets authoring that can be leveraged by social networks, search engines, chatbots, so on and so forth.

In case you have old files that you want to refresh or update, then the app allows you to import them – especially Microsoft Word – without too much hassle. Speaking of migrating data, the application can smoothly import HTML and Markdown that you can merge with the current API documentation.

Since great content cannot be complete without relevant images, you will be happy to learn that the tool enables the import and use of visuals that look great all across devices and platforms.

Adobe RoboHelp can publish your content to a wide range of popular formats, including but not limited to frameless, HTML5, PDF, or mobile formats. Not only are the presets included easy to configure, but you can also configure the tool to create multiple documentation systems for the same project from a single source.

Lastly, the program allows for smart content re-use and use a single source to distribute the same content across devices and formats. Once you make a change, it is going to be reflected across all documentation.
