Flare is a full-blown single sourcing program, something like Structured
Frame, and includes online help output. It's more complicated to use,
but might be more powerful. I never used it.
You have to take into account that the downside to using more complex
and less popular programs is that

Folks,
At my new contract, they have Word (och!) and want to output to compiled html

My audience is support folks for internal software.
They think that they want to stay with Word for the source files because, down

Like you, I'd go with Frame, because you can easily get from Frame to
.chm (if necessary) either through RoboHelp or MIF2go.
You could do online reviews pretty easily with FM, using PDF as your
reviewing tool. CMEs can cut in comments/corrections using Reader and
those can be round-tripped back

Yes, that's what .chm, a.k.a., HTMLHelp, is. But if you're not sure that's what
they mean or want, you might want to talk with them some more. This
I believe that I can go from Frame to .chm.
No, you can't. You could use Mif2Go (our product,
for $295), or ePublisher (for way more) snip
WebWorks ePublisher can also process Word files, if you decide to stick with
Word. It can also process a mix of Word, FM, and XML files.

There is no native CHM conversion, merely save as HTML. You *can* save
as HTML and then create all of your TOC/IX/keyword files, manage map
IDs, and then compile it all outside of FM using HTML Help Workshop or
another product with the compiler, but you also might have better uses
of your time.
No, you can't. You could use Mif2Go (our product,
for $295), or ePublisher (for way more), directly with
the Frame files. Other apps, like Flare and Robo,
import the Frame files instead, which means lots
more work for every revision. Robo claims to link,
but see what its users have to say
