Generating Output Using the Exploring ePublisher Project
After you have added the Exploring ePublisher source documents to your ePublisher Express project and reviewed the source documents, generate output for the following output formats using your Exploring ePublisher project:
WebWorks Help
Microsoft HTML Help
Dynamic HTML
ePublisher provides support for a large variety of output formats, such as simple and Dynamic HTML, Sun JavaHelp, Oracle Help, Eclipse Help, PDFs, Wikis, Microsoft Reader, Palm Reader, and more. You can produce output for all of these different formats using a single set of source documents in just a few clicks.
The sample Exploring ePublisher source documents and Stationery provide examples of how online features such as popup windows, expand/collapse sections, related topics, and context-sensitive help topics display in generated output. After you generate and review the Exploring ePublisher generated output, you can customize target settings in ePublisher to further customize the look and feel of the generated output.
