All of the following can be handled by a common word processor such as Microsoft Word, Open Office, or LibreOffice, and no knowledge of HTML is needed. One just has to type in simple commands like .page, .textfield, .checkbox, .radiobutton, .textbox, .HTMLtextbox, .video, .execbutton, etc. That plus the ability to highlight text is all that is required.
