Nobody likes outdated documentation. As your database changes over time TechWriter automatically detects the change and adjusts the documentation to match.

Multiple Output Choices
Create both printed and online documentation at the same time. TechWriter can generate your documentation in HTML Help, PDF, RTF/Word and Web site formats.

Targeted Audience
Documentation generated by TechWriter can be targeted towards different audiences by controlling what information is included. Different tables, views and procedures can be excluded by simply selecting a check box. And using TechWriters advanced filtering, you can set up rules to exclude information based on naming conventions. TechWriter also gives you control of the level of detail that is included in the documentation. For example, you can choose to either include or exclude the SQL definition for views.
