Hi LUV Main I have kept documentation in any formats from plain text, pod, apt, to docbook, tex and more. But I have never had to use Word (yes lucky me). I tend to have a Makefile, that does all the file converting necessary (e.g. turn my Mindmap into SVG into JPG, or similar). And of course, using Docbook (or APT to docbook) or TeX I can control all the formatting. Which leads me to my question. I am working now in an environment which is all word on dropbox. I am going crazy with formatting issues, corrupt documents (I have even installed MS Word on my Mac laptop to see if I can work around the problems by going to the source). A quick think suggests solutions for me is one of the following: * Modular word docs and use includes - not ideal still problems with formatting etc * Wiki (there is a Confluence system available for me to use) - but no offline editing, and terrible word/pdf output formatting * Build system (some text editable format I can use to generate the word docs). For the moment, the lucky thing is that I am working on these particular document mostly alone. That may not last and that is where the Wiki comes in, because at least the barrier to entry for the non-technical staff is low. Long story short, I am looking for examples, recommendations and personal experience. What would you use? Thanks Scott
