Recommended System Requirements

An Internet Connection is required to download certain components of the Requirements (.Net Framework).

  • Adobe® Dreamweaver® MX2004, 8.0, 9.0, CS3, CS4, CS5

  • Microsoft® .NET Framework version 4.0 or later

  • The Doc-To-Help installation will check for the presence of the Microsoft .NET 4.0 Framework. If not found, it will be installed automatically.

  • Microsoft® Internet Explorer® 8 or greater (for use by the Theme Designer), Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, or Safari

Microsoft® Word, FrontPage®, and Adobe® Dreamweaver® are required only if you plan to use them as editors.

If using Doc-To-Help's SharePoint integration, Doc-To-Help collaboration features are compatible with Microsoft® SharePoint® 2007, 2010, and 2013, as well as Office 365 (SharePoint Online). SharePoint 2010 or 2013 is required when publishing Doc-To-Help Targets to a SharePoint Wiki Library. SharePoint 2010 is recommended when working with Translation Libraries (SharePoint 2013 does not include this feature). Translation Libraries cannot be managed in Windows SharePoint Services 3.0, because WSS 3.0 does not support them.

Prerequisite for Office 365 (SharePoint Online):

  • Windows Identity Foundation

If storing your Team Project in a Team Foundation Server repository, Doc-To-Help supports Microsoft Team Foundation Server 2008, 2010, and 2012.

Note: D2H does not support side-by-side installations by design.

MadCap products currently require Microsoft Windows. Several users have installed Windows on their Macs using programs that enable them to run Windows. The system requirements remain the same for the version of Windows running on a Mac.

If there are difficulties installing Doc-To-Help after fulfilling the items on this checklist, please contact MadCap Technical Support.
