Hey Maryum,

If you import an MS Word document to WebHelp, you will have to handle A LOT
of formatting manually. The Robohelp uses its built-in editor to create
WebHelp and it does not provide as many formatting options as MS Word.

When I tried this, I just estimated how much time it took if I formatted the
Word doc before import and how much it took to format the topics in WebHelp
individually after import. It's tedious in both cases :(.

Regards,
Khizran
