Using MS-Word to produce end-user software documentation as HTML

Solution 1:

It's possible, although Word itself is a passable HTML editor, so you could directly edit the HTML file and not pass through a .docx file.

In both cases, editing either .docx or .html, to add a hyperlink to text or a picture:

  1. Select the text or picture that you want to display as a hyperlink
  2. Right-click the selected text or picture and choose Link
  3. Type or paste the URL or link in the Address box
  4. Click OK.

To save a .docx file as .html:

  • Use menu File > Save As
  • Click on "More options..."
  • Select in "Save as type:" the HTML type and set the file-name
  • Click Save to execute.
