Larry,

Some of the critical questions to help you in your search.

1) Do you need to search locally from a CD/DVD or from a server?
2) In what file format is the manual (PDF, word docs, etc)
3) What will you use as your user interface for searching the manual (flash, HTML, etc)?
4) What is your budget?
5) Are there any components of the manual located on the server (diagrams, videos, and so on)?
6) If using a CD, what platforms will the target audiance use?

If you're searching directly from a CD/DVD then you'll need to bundle DT search (the others require a server) and create an interface that interacts with the search program either using Flash or Java Swing (assuming not everyone has Windows).
