Margolin’s and Prado’s presentation focused on adding navigation and graphical elements to WinHelp files. Using elements such as watermarks and navigational buttons, Catherine was able to create Help files that contained some elements making them look like HTML Help pages. Other techniques shown included using Adobe Acrobat effectively for putting information online and using FrameMaker to create online materials. Comments?
