Document Format

Okay, so now that I've decided to work on EveryGame again, I need to think about how I'm going to release it. I'm considering HTML, PDF and RTF formats. I'm writing the raw text in OpenOffice, so any of those options are viable in the future. I'd much prefer that if I'm going to do PDF then I'll use Pagemaker (which I have) or InDesign (on the purchase list) to lay out the content (text and tables) and images. Perhaps I'll just wait and see how the system evolves before deciding on this. Of course, if I do decide to do layout in a DTP package, that'll just add to the work involved in releasing it, and keeping it updated. If I design the publication structure just right though, any changes made to the system should be easy enough to update.
