Writing Documentation for VirtueMart

About

The documentation for VirtueMart has been written in the DocBook XML format. This format allows a flexible export into various output formats like PDF, RTF, WordXML, HTML and CHM.

How to get it

You can download the XML source from SVN. The subdirectory of the trunk is named "documentation". Currently you'll find the User_Manual, Developer_Manual and Installation_Manual.

How to edit

To edit these documents, you can use a Text Editor. But MUCH MUCH more comfortably you can work with a WYSIWYG DocBook XML Editor called "XXE": the XMLMind XML Editor.

Here's a screencast on how to work with the XXE: Screencast - Writing Documentation for VirtueMart using the XXE.
