Machine Manuals

Combination of Acrobat Pro, Word, and Cad / PDF.

Everything goes into PDF, but word documents are used to create the cover sheet / etc and print to pdf.

I do the manual separately. I use Libre Office 6.2 for spread sheets and word documents, then export them to PDF. I also export my schematics to PDF and make a little booklet out of it. I should add, though, that the systems I make are little one-off custom things. It is only me at the moment.

I think Toms response is along the lines im looking for.

But if i have 100 mechanical drawings i want to add at the end of my manual, do I have to add them one at a time or is there a way to add a bunch in one go?

Look into pdf995. It may do what you like or there may be other software that does this.
