5.0 out of 5 stars Very nice addition to CS3 for companies in Electronics and IT sectors, February 8, 2008

By	G. J. Zeilstra "gert zeilstra" (the Netherlands) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

We use CS3 but this suite is great as addition next to it to simplify our efforts to document what we sell. This is something we definately will be using a lot to publish content on our secure website for our reseller channels.
