Office 2013 Professional offline help - how do I install it

Hi all:

I am using Office Professional 2013 and I need to install offline help.  I've searched the topic and no answers come up.

I travel a lot and the planes and places I go don't have easy access to the Internet.  In other words, online help WILL NOT work for me.

Where is offline help located or are there additional downloads?  I REALLY MISS distribution DVDs and being able to setup Office my way.

Thanks,

rp

    How about now? We're in the middle of November 2013. Are there any user-based (NOT developer) offline help file additions available now?

    Having to go outside of the application to view help is just not acceptable and is totally unproductive.

    Office 2013 has taken us back in time, the applications are slow, full of bugs and with frequent crashes, very frustrating for the casual users and downright offending to power users.

    We just "upgraded" 300+ users to Office 2013 Plus, and am yet to find a single user the actually likes it.

    The least that can be done is to allow integration of the downloadable help files with F1 help.

    They are developer references for those working in vba. They will be very useful to me, but are not the same as the built-in help for Word, itself, that the original poster was requesting.

    Yes, you are right.

    and don't forget to follow installation instructions:

    Note: If you open the CHM file and cannot view content, do the

    following to resolve the issue:

      •Close the CHM file.

      •In Windows Explorer, right click the CHM file, and then click Properties.

      •Click Unblock, and then click OK.

      •Double-click the CHM file to open it

    Thank you. I've started the download. However, this appears to be developer vba files rather than general help.
