   It helps us a lot

   I like ClickHelp as we (my team) created a huge database with this tool and all the content is reusable. That makes the work simpler. We leave comments right inside the topic like in Google Docs. That is perfect! Nothing gets lost. The tool is cloud-based. So, we can work from any place. It happens that I make corrections during my weekend from home. It saves me from the necessity rush to the office. The portal is protected by a password. You may give access to your portal to your colleagues or readers and their permissions will be different. For us, the main advantage is that everything is in order and under control now.

   Great tool!

   I started to use ClickHelp a couple of years ago. So far it is the only service that gives me the ability to create several manuals from one and the same source. I create the initial document that contains all the information and then generate different outputs hiding and showing some parts of the document. I do not have to copy and paste the passages all the time. One more thing I love is the branding. As a freelancer, I am often engaged in several projects. So I have to take care of the consistency and corporate identity of my documentation for each project. Each company has its own rules. For ClickHelp it is not a problem. What I enjoy as well is that when something goes wrong I can get back to the exact version of the document that I need. All the changes are saved in the version history.

  I use ClickHelp, it provides all features you mentioned. You can learn more here: https://clickhelp.com/. Source: about 2 years ago

• Technical Writing Tools

  I used to work with Oxygen XML Author and easyDITA, which would be too expensive and might be overkill imo, so I was thinking about Madcap Flare or ClickHelp. Source: about 3 years ago

  I had to open up the "chat" and accept. I received no notification. I responded there but it appears that screenshot is from manualslib.com which doesn't have a manual for my bike. Source: 10 months ago

• Help choosing between 3 sewing machines I found!

  By the time the 514 was built, Singer had gone heavily into plastic gears, and the 514 has several. They usually last 30-40 years, though with excellent care they may last a bit longer. Trouble is that once the gears have to be replaced, it costs far more than the machine is worth because the whole machine has to be recalibrated and the person who does that work is fighting against the idiosyncratic wear...

• Yamaha SY series (SY-list) Archive by Herbert Janssen

  As a total aside. The SY77 and SY99 op & midi manuals are much better on manualslib.com than the official Yamaha website with significantly better diagram scan quality + sort of okay OCR. Source: 11 months ago

• Canon PowerShot A580

  Cool! If you have the manual, too, I would first use it to get familiar with the controls. Shame on Canon for not providing this anymore for very old cameras; you can get it online, however, from manualslib.com . Then, personally, I would take the ISO to 100, or even 80, if that looks better. Usually on these old cameras, ISO at levels higher than like 200 make your photos look like they came from a security... Source: about 1 year ago

• How bad did i do? (£5)

  Sometimes free service manuals are available at manualslib.com and the site is nice because the manuals are easily searchable. I don't find anything relevant ATM for models 6233/34/35. Archive.org can also be a source, but they are best searched externally, and for me, the listings will be down the page below more commercial sources. Again, no luck this time. Commercial sources have to be approached with care... Source: about 1 year ago
