Digitizing hand written DesignDoc.
Author
Which is the best program advised to create a digital version of my DesignDoc.
I have a huge game DesignDoc which is handwritten and is 50 percent complete.
The features I wanna add to my digital DD are:
Appendix A,B..
Glossary ....
Index..
Search capablity.
Hyperlinks through doc..
and easy modification.
Later I want to divide the topics on designers side ,programmers sides... and create seperate versions.
All I want is it should have a lot of ease for the reader and easy reference whenever needed.
Which program is advisable.Is MS Word good enough?Microsoft help workshop? etc..
Many Thankyou in advanced.
I''d go for html. Get a simple editor for it, to make hyperlinks and such easy.
Html is lightweight, and very portable, and putting it online will not require another conversion.

yes Html is a good idea but I dont think anyone will publish a DD on the web when not more that a handfull of trusted people will view it.I would rather give it zipped.
any sugestions please.

Just out of curiosty does anyone know a good program to digitize hand written documents? I mean I have my hand written notes and I want to scan them and convert them to a text document without rewitting them.

I am feeling slightly stupid but I think I will use word first to type in and final DD will be in Microsoft help workshop
Unless you have access to a scanner capable of perfect OCR (optical character recognition) or software that can do it without errors, you will either have to transcribe it all or thoroughly weed through the whole document and fix errors by hand.

I have scanner and OCR program but still I will "thoroughly weed through the whole document and fix errors by hand" because my handwriting is difficult for people to understand
