Sorry, but no. It works with RTF text, so I suppose I could make it handle
help formatted text at least as well as Word, but not like a specialized
tool.

It is, basically, a Word Processor that can generate PDF files directly.
One thing that can be usefull is it's ability to create hyperlinks in the
document and then transfer them to the PDF file. I'm still fixing a few
quirks in this, however, it works reasonably well. I should have a new
version - with less quirks :-) - towards the end of the month, I hope.

All my best,

Mauricio Longo
