Setting up and 17configuring these tools can be tricky, but once everything is in place, 18it's mostly quite easy to use. There's no requirement to use any of 19this, but feedback on the documentation generated with these tools 20is generally positive. 21 22The diagram below illustrates the way the various documentation tools 23fit together. Note that you don't have to use all of this, and the 24process is automated using Boost.Build, but having a rough 25understanding of the build process will help understand the tools 26better. 27 28[?! __standalone__ 29[$../../tools/quickbook/doc/boost-doc-tools/images/documentation-toolchain.png] 30] 31[? __standalone__ 32[$../../boost-doc-tools/images/documentation-toolchain.png] 33] 34
