Technical Writing Software While unquestionably a valid answer, owning everything involved here would consume a lot of time I wouldn't be interested in spending. There are likely some XSLTs and CSSs file to be pilfered to get part of way there though. |

Technical Writing Software I'm not sure DocBook is the end-all myself either. But working with publishers, it's the most commonly desired format for the type of technical books I am targeting. Thanks for your suggestions though. |

Technical Writing Software It looks like the support is pretty broken for DocBook, from the link, "Currently it needs LyX 1.2.0 and it will not work with later versions of LyX." Additionally it links to a bug which has other bugs linked about this support. I don't think this would end up producing the output I want. However, I'll keep an eye on it, might be worth it if that gets cleaned up. |

Technical Writing Software Thanks for your input Monica. It looks like Epic is totally overkill in it's current state. Some older versions appeared like they might be useful though. Oxygen I was also unfamiliar with and might be an option. I think it's time for to move beyond using vim now, there will be a lot of writing and having a more integrated experience might finally be worth it for me. |

Technical Writing Software I think the whole tool chain doesn't have to be easy. I'm okay with spending a little time building it out if needed. I think if I can easily produce structured content I can always come back and transform the content to another format with some clean up. PDF isn't my target output, like it was with LaTeX, since publishers will need to do at least some copy editing for the final format in question. Any "printable" output would only be for myself. Thanks for the responses, it provided more things to consider. |
