RoboHelp
In my (previous) career as technical writer, I was an authority on Adobe RoboHelp. I have been an Adobe Community Professional for many years. This title is an acknowlegdement of my expertise by Adobe. My specialties in RoboHelp were scripting and HTML5. Due to career choices, I no longer keep up to date with Adobe RoboHelp and I do not offer training an consultancy at this time.
I used to be a regular contributer to different blogs. To keep my content available, I offer PDF versions of articles from Help Essentials. You can find these PDF version on this page.
Here you can find an overview of my contributions:
