Android Question Creating a Help File [Closed]

[Roger Daley]

Hi All,

A question that has been asked many times before but I am hoping there has been a brilliant break through.
In the past I have just produced a Word Doc and SaveAs HTM. Yes I know it's crude but the combination of Drawing Objects, Text Boxes, and Images just made it too easy.
Now for some unknown reason when I SaveAs HTM the HTM has Drawings and Text boxes sitting over text.

My question is not how to fix the formatting errors but for a hint on a fresh start approach. How do others present instructions to their users?
Is HTM the best option? What is the best way for a complete HTML mug to produce a "HTML Document" as apposed a "Web Page". [I know it's the same thing just a difference in perception.]

Regards Roger
Please don't tell me to use the search, been there.
Please don't tell me to learn more about HTML.

You can also use BBCodeView (BCTextEngine lib) to create rich text.

Thanks Erel, I will follow up on BBCodeview.

I use the "Kompozer" software to generate a help file in HTML format. It is easy to use: it includes a page editor provided with a simple graphical interface of WYSIWYG type and does not require any knowledge of the detail of the HTML format.

Another possible solution is to create a video help file by recording the screen with AirDroid, upload to YouTube and add a button to start the YouTube app with this video.

hatzisn,
Yes, possible but probably not the right fit for this instance. Although I will keep it in mind for a different App.
