I made a help file from the manual.
It's far from perfect but better than nothing and has to be placed in the rdworks.exe folder and can be accessed with the F1 key.
Using rdworks with in english the name Help3.chm is correct, japanese=Help4.chm, other languages=Help.chm.

Thank you for the data~!!!
I am using V8.01.48.
In the case of V8.01.48 version, pressing F1 with Help3.chm or Help_3.chm did not work. :(

But, when I renamed the file to Help.chm, pressing the F1 key in all languages works fine. Thank you very much. :D

Good to know. I just have rdworks still installed, just in case I need to change vendor settings but I'm using lightburn now. I don't even have to read a user manual to use it :lol:
