You can import existing documentation into your Help & Manual projects from a wide variety of different formats. When you import data you can either create a new project or import the data into an existing project. The procedure in both cases is almost identical.

When you import data an interactive wizard guides you through each step of the process. However, each data format needs to be handled a little differently. You will find important information on each format further below.

Importing data to new projects

1.Click on the Application Button and select New.
2.Select the option Import existing documentation from....
3.Select the documentation format, then follow the instructions displayed in the interactive wizard.
Importing data into existing projects

2.Click on the Application Button and select Import.
