Adobe RoboHelp: Word 2010 Support
The following was recently announced by Ankur Jain, Product Manager, RoboHelp on the Technical Communication blog:
"Many of you must be wondering about Adobe's plans to support Microsoft Word 2010 in RoboHelp. Some of you have submitted requests for RoboHelp to support Word 2010, and many others have asked me about it in various forums. I'm pleased to announce that the next major release of RoboHelp will support Microsoft Word 2010 for all the workflows including import/linking and printed documentation output (.docx and .doc). Please note that we haven't made any announcements about updating RoboHelp 8 for Microsoft Word 2010."
