CD FrontEnd’s intuitive easy-start environment requires no more technical skills than a common word processor, yet offers so much more! The features provided to the CD's end user are very powerful but there's more than this: CDFrontEnd is handy for you, the author, too. You work with a single document, for editing, archive, publishing and even for searches and revisions. The interface is fast and easy to use, thanks to the innovative WYSIWYL™
