Software for making Help files

For making help files I use Macromedia Dreamweaver and Help&Manual. In fact, I could use Help&Manual only, because it allows to create CHM, HLP and even PDF (though PDF is not of the best quality), however MacOS X Help require HTML files and Dreamweaver is a better tool for making them. So here is the process: I make files in HTML, then I import them to Help&Manual, where I restore their structure, check the anchors and create CHM. The thing is that our company develops cross platform (Mac&PC) applications, moreover Macintosh gets more attention.
