Hi everyone!
I'll vouch for this product :) Extremely easy to use and much better
than any open source project out there (that I know of). However, the
the markup that it produces is not often the easiest to maintain as I
have discovered. Should also make a note of one of their other
products, their XML XSL FO Utility program. Much quicker than
jade/openjade and also free for personal use.
Recently, came across an article of publishing using Open Office though:

beginning of this project, Tony Mobily
Still not sure entirely how this works (I'm not the best with XML
markup and the like) but I think this could be a long term solution to
our problem?
