The factors to consider when choosing a tool include: the format of
your source documents and your preferred authoring environment
(Word-based, HTML editor-based, etc.); whether or not you want to
single-source WinHelp/HTML Help and other documentation formats, such
as printed manuals; and your budget. The tools that are most commonly
used by professional help authors are:

* AuthorIT
* Doc-To-Help
* HDK/XDK
* Help & Manual
* RoboHelp (the market leader, but expensive)
* WebWorks Publisher

For reviews of most of these tools, see:
