Discontinued: Save your JavaHelp Document as PDF

DocAnywhere lets you convert your help sets in JavaHelp format to PDF!

Simply select a help set file (.hs) as the source and specify a name for your new PDF document. DocAnywhere will produce a PDF file with identical content and format.

Identical Table of Contents

The table of contents is created similar to the one found in the help set. The PDF TOC can be used as in the help set i.e. clicking an entry opens respective chapter.

Preserves links

Internal and external links are preserved so that references can be visited out of the PDF file with a single click as in the help set or web browser.

Header and Footer, Page Numbering

DocAnywhere lets you add a header or footer in customizable font and size. Optionally a page number can be appended. The header or footer can be hidden on the first page when desired.

Limitations

Although DocAnywhere reads any HTML it mainly focuses on transformation of HTML text documents rather than web pages.

See also respective topic in the manual for further discussion.

The application has been tested with documens produced by SimplyHTML. If you have trouble with a certain help set please send in the help set in question along with the resulting PDF for an analysis.
