Insert Multi-media in Word Documents
We have been talking a lot about our shiny new XML-based editor lately, but don't forget that Doc-To-Help still has the great support for
Microsoft Word authors that originally made it famous. Take the "Insert Flash Movie" feature, for example. You can simply click the Flash Movie
button found in the Doc-To-Help toolbar in Word, point to your movie, and Doc-To-Help will create the code necessary to embed the movie in your
HTML-based output. Doc-To-Help will even automatically omit the movie from print outputs!
