Web/online version of the Resolve manual so we can bookmark

The Resolve manual is beautifully laid out, and the fact the PDF is properly hyperlinked is wonderful.

That said, a monolithic PDF does make it hard to point people at specific pages, or bookmark collections of pages relevant to a current job.

Our team is looking at moving over to Resolve, so there's a ton of learning to do; we're all experienced editors but new to some of Resolve's paradigms. We put links to reference materials on our intranet so we can find them easily, but having to say "oh, to set up stereoscopic projects you need to read pages XXX and YYY in this downloadable PDF" is a pain - all the more so given there'll be a new manual at some point and those page numbers will change.

Could you ask your documentation folks to look into ways to automate a conversion to HTML/online, in a way that retains chapter / sections in the URL? That way there'd be a good chance the URLs would survive into the future. For example, this chapter/section of the manual may be updated in future, but the URL is sensible and pretty future-proof:
https://docs.blackmagicdesign.com/resol ... o-3d-media

Adobe went down this road...and then dropped the PDF.

I hope BMD keeps the PDF forever. It's just better.

two other FR same as yours : viewtopic.php?f=33&t=197204&hilit=+html

add a +1 there too

It's objectively not better.

Adobe and BMD are not taking the same route anyway, so using what Adobe does to justify what BMD "could" do is 

All the major applications have online manuals. I keep referring to the one for FL Studio; it's simple and very fast to find anything in it in a sec.

Just the fact that you can't search for a word in the pdf and then search for something more precise is what makes an online manual 100 times better.

You make a general search, then you ctrl+f to search in the results themselves.

It's objectively not better.

I think it is. HTML documents suck. PDF's rule!

I think in some respects, an HTML version may facilitate faster updates, spelling corrections, etc. Filmworkz had this for Nucoda at one point (I'm not sure if they still do), and while it was a bit of a hassle to search, it was nice to have faster load times. Heck, Filmlight's flapi documentation is all HTML based and it's just as searchable and linked as a PDF.

There are huge benefits to both. The PDF (which is beautifully produced) lets me carry the manual on the road, but an HTML/online version would provide more powerful searchability, bookmarking, and the ability to direct a colleague to a specific section with a single click.

Let's not look at this as either/or - depending on the authoring package being used, it ought to be possible to automate the HTML export/upload, minimise impact on the doc writers. Why not both

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
