Help file for Printer Squirrel

Printer Squirrel is an application that monitors print jobs being sent to printers, and sets charges for these jobs. Printer Squirrel records details such as the user who sent the job, job title, printing parameters and the number of pages printed for each print job, and then assigns a charge for the job. Users can be organised into functional groups and usage reports and charts can be produced for each group. Reports on printer usage can also be automatically emailed printed or saved to file.

We have found Drexplain to be an excellent product - help files are now (almost) fun rather than being a tedious chore. All stages of help file construction are smooth and intuitive and the resultant help files look great. The time savings gained over coventional help authoring systems is considerable.
