Any suggested Adobe software for training manuals?

Question

We have a team that uses Captivate for developing training videos/elearning modules.

We also have a team that develops product documentation/user guides/online help in RH and FM.

Is there any Adobe solution that anyone can suggest that would be useful for developing a training manual. This manual will be different than the product user guide.

I thought you had already quite a lot of suited Adobe apps. If you explained exactly what you mean by 'training manual' maybe I could offer more suggestions. As a professor I used to create manuals to pdf, using InDesign in combination with embedded Captivate tutorials. However with the announced death of the Flash Player that has become difficult. InDesign allows to create ePub, fixed layout ePub and you could embed video, audio, add some interactivity (multi state objects, effects, but less than in Captivate) and add hyperlinks to published Captivate tutorials on a webserver. That would be my idea of a training manual. I now that Framemaker can also embed Captivate tutorials, but since I have not used FM since a while I'm not updated on its possibilities for interactivity.
