Customer Reviews & Comments
I was handed a project at work that required me to learn RoboHelp HTML in less than a week, which is the equivalent of reproducing the Sistine Chapel on the side of a building in about twenty-four hours. Valium looked to become my newest friend until I tried the book "The Essentials of RoboHelp HTML X3" from IconLogic. After I had completed a couple of modules of this excellent training manual, I was becoming giddy with how easy the project had suddenly become. The best I can say about these IconLogic Books is in what the Project Manger said to me when he saw what I was producing; he said, "There is no way I'll ever believe you haven't used RoboHelp before now." True, there are cheaper books available about RoboHelp--but I don't think there are any better than those from IconLogic.
