Loathe as I am to admit it, Word is OK for printing small documents as long
as you have a good template and good production methods (e.g. don't switch
printer drivers between draft and final, be very prudent with final
reviews, etc.) By "small" I mean less than 100 pages. If your document is
not large then I would agree that Robohelp is your best bet.
