• Problems importing files in Robohelp HTML PDF

  Hi, I am trying to import several files in PDF format I will then link to in my help file.  I get an error message that Robohelp is unable to import due to file being one "type of file not supported or the file is corrupt."  I don't see how they can be corrupted when I created them a few minutes before they open fine.  Any help would be appreciated!  Thanks in advance.

  Hi Jeff

  Well, now we're cooking!

  What you need to do now is add these PDFs to your list of hatracks.

  The pod of RoboHelp HTML project, you should see a folder luggage nickname if you are in Classic view. If you are in the new global vision that you won't see it.

  If you see the nickname baggage files folder, right-click. If you don't see the folder luggage nickname, right click on the nickname project files folder.

  Click new > file of baggage.

  This should be a dialog box allowing you to choose the documents. (you can add more than one at a time)

  After obtaining their added as baggage, you are able to link to them.

  See you soon... Rick

• RoboHelp HTML 10 print output contains the code for all the headings on the pages on the screen.

  Hello

  When I generate output files using RoboHelp HTML 10 printed Documentation, the pages on the screen containing code for all items on all pages. When I print the document, the code has disappeared. Anyone know how I can't view the code on the screen?

  Thank you.

  Please do not take into account. I chose to show hidden text in MS Word and when I disabled the check box, the strange code on the screen disappeared.

• RoboHelp HTML crashes after emptying a project

  Hello
  
  I use Framemaker to do most of my creation and then import the files into RoboHelp HTML to generate HTML Help. As the first step of importing the files, I have to delete all the topics, table of contents entries and entries IX of the RoboHelp project. If I do this, I find myself with duplicates everywhere in the project.
  
  After the project I have empty and try to save it, HR goes belly up and I have to click through two sets of dialog boxes "Adobe Robohelp 7 has encountered a problem and needs to close." After you click 'Send error report' a dozen times, I wonder if there is anything I can do about this problem.
  
  Thank you
  John B.

  Hi all

  John, I couldn't help but notice that you said you are trying to delete ALL the content of the project. And here's where my instincts tell me the lies of the question.

  My thought is that you could take the following approach. Create a unique topic. One that will never exist in Framemaker. Only in RoboHelp. Then forget about this topic. Don't delete ever or something. Then, when you do your own out, I would take this approach.

  Clear the table of contents and Index. Does not matter the order in which you use. These first hunting just as you shoot. I say FLUSH these, because they depend on the content in the topics.
  Rinse the subjects. Hey, all, but the only subject which should remain.

  Here, my thought is that if you remove the entire system's RoboHelp goes belly up with no subject. And if you deleted the items first, RoboHelp can be gobs of updates gagging as she foolishly tries to follow all the sudden broken links to table of contents and Index items. That is why I proposed these as a first step.

  Please give it a go and let us know if it helps... Rick

• importing FrameMaker 7.2 to RoboHelp HTML files does not work

  Hello

  When you try to import files FM 7.2 RoboHelp HTML 10, I get the following message:

  "This operation cannot be completed without FrameMaker. Install FrameMaker and try again. »

  I have FrameMaker 7.2 installed. So why I get this message? More important still, why didn't it work?

  Thank you very much in advance for all the tips!

  Donna

  P. S.

  Tried to save the book .mif file and import the .mif, but again received this message.

  After contacting the representative of cat from Adobe, the answer is that the HR 10 does not support FM 7.2. HR requires FM 8 or later version installed:

  "You can create a RoboHelp project by importing FrameMaker books or documents." Import of these files requires than FrameMaker 8 or later installed on your computer. »

• Where detailed instructions for developers to link the RoboHelp HTML files to an application?

  I'm pass RoboHelp for word in RoboHelp HTML. The initial project of assistance was created years ago, and the developers who worked on it are not here anymore. Where can I find detailed instructions for our developers understand how to link the files to RoboHelp for our product application? (I haven't decided yet if you want to use Microsoft HTML Help or WebHelp as a main page layout. More information on how to associate the files could help me decide).
  
  Also, are there instructions anywhere to help understand how to bind the files in application contextual help card ID?

  Thank you, Jessica and Pete! I'll try MSHelpWiki and see if the developers can figure out with this info. If they use Delphi, I'll try the HelpScribble site.

  Thanks for all help

• Why RCS invites me to check the. XPJ file when I open RoboHelp HTML?

  We just upgraded from X 3 to X 5 and started using RoboSource Control. We currently have a dedicated server machine and the machine 1 client (we will add 3 client machines more once I have solved all the problems with this one). I've implemented on each machine so I can open projects to help with RoboHelp HTML working folders.
  
  The problem here is that I often get the following message in a dialog box when I opened an HTML HR assistance project:
  
  "To add information from version control for this project, the files in the list below must be retrieved from version control. You want to extract these files? "(The only listed file is the.) XPJ file.)
  
  I believe that this message after that I opened this particular project to help on the other PC. For example, I opened help A project to the server. If I close it, I can re - open the project for help on this machine several times without receiving the message. However, if I then open help project A on the client machine, I get the prompt to extract the XPJ file. If I check, I can then reopen the project on this machine several times without receiving the message. Of course, if check the client machine XPJ file, I get the prompt on the server to check the next time I'm going to open it upwards from there.
  
  Thoughts?

  Download the latest version of the version control database XPJ file.

• 8 of RoboHelp HTML: see selected file (glasses)

  How can I fix the "view selected" or "glasses"?  Whenever I click on it nothing appears.  Thank you!

  Hello

  What sometimes happens is that the preview window becomes moved to a position largely off-screen. I call it "version of the computer of Pluto."

  Curiously, I never noticed this until moments ago. Maybe things behave differently in XP. I am using Windows 7 then maybe changing my playground. I think of course remember that the preview would focus the preview window and RoboHelp seems to be blocked until the rejected you. But I just looked at version 8 and it is what allows the preview remains open and the preview window is not focused. Grrr

  Maybe try closing and restarting of RoboHelp. Then carefully open a topic. Listen to samples carefully. As soon as you call the preview, try the steps.

  Give that a go and let us know how you rate... Rick

• RoboHelp HTML X 5: merged help showing no no ToC

  Hi all:

  Hoping someone can help me here.

  I've been creating merged help for a while now without problems. But you have this problem today after compiling a particular project after a 15-month hiatus. When I compiled the project parent/master, the table of contents shown projects of the child and the InfoBar displays the following message is displayed:

  "To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has restricted this file from showing active content that could access your computer. Click here for options... »

  I ignored the message and clicked on the child projects to verify if they appear correctly. Each project of the child opened the new instance of Internet Explorer - this has not happened before. The last time that I respected this parent, everything worked well project work and child projects that are open in the same instance of the browser.

  Secondly, when I right click on the message bar and has chosen to allow the blocked information content, the ToC has disappeared.

  Just in case where it is relevant, my predecessor employer all our PC last month and all software should be reinstalled.

  Would it be because of the new version of IE? (My old machine could have an older version.) Or the fact that I did not install the updates in Robohelp X 5? (I get the message that the Macromedia server is down). I have not activated the product, but either.

  
  Would appreciate any advice/indices.

  Thanks in advance

  Sophie

  Hello

  Usually, you can prevent this message from appearing by activating Mark of The Web (MOTW) in the generation of WebHelp options. The unfortunate part, which is that you said X 5 and X 5 do not offer this option. So the next best thing you can do is to configure IE so it does not present the yellow information bar. To do this, open the Internet Options in IE. Click the Advanced tab and scroll down to the Security section. Place a check in the option 'allow active content to run in files on my computer ".

  

  Note that this affects only your own computer. If you expect your users to copy the WebHelp files on their local disks of C, you'll have to teach them to perform the same steps. But if you send your content to a Web server, you should not experience this problem.

  See you soon... Rick

• Search RoboHelp HTML 8 problem

  I have a RoboHelp 8 HTML single (non-merged) project in which, I can't get search working properly.

  I was expecting to see a box where I can type a search term and a white pane on the contents, Index, search, glossary bar where search results would appear.  Instead, I get the following when I generate WebHelp:

  

  
  This problem appears in IE 6, IE 7, Firefox 3.0 and 3.5 of Firefox, which uses our customer base.  I use RoboHelp 8 on a Windows PC with XP Pro 2002 SP3.

  In the project/general settings dialog box, the default parameters for the Stop List I and her always ignore list selected.  For "add new keywords for ' I 'Index File (Perfect)' selected, and 'Binary Index' is selected.

  During the generation of WebHelp, I have the following set:

  General selections: under 'Additional Options', 'apply to all subjects","CSS"is selected, with the correct name of the CSS is displayed.  'Add the Mark of the Web' is selected.

  Selections of navigation: contents, Index, search, for the buttons of the toolbar, glossary are selected.  For Search Options, 'Search results select Enable' is selected.

  Selection of preferred Format of navigation pane is pure HTML.  (We tried DHTML/HTML but which resulted in an empty nav component and a non-functional index).

  Optimize the speed for: Web Site (Internet)

  Publish: Publish again together.

  What we're doing wrong?  I'm totally stumped and I can't seem to find any help on this issue anywhere.  Thank you!

  Hello

  This is because you use pure HTML. You must enable DHTML, otherwise, it seems that you see.

• Generate. HLP files

  My client asked the help file be in a HLP format instead of the CHM format because it's for an older project that does not support html. I am very new to RoboHelp and I was wondering if there was a way of creating HLP files instead of CHM files. I searched online and have not been able to find a solution. Thank you!

  Hi Kyle

  That is right. You use RoboHelp for Word. This one uses Microsoft Word as the authoring environment. RoboHelp maintains project files (which are one or more Word documents saved in. In the rich TEXT format).

  Good luck and have fun! Rick

• Generate. RoboHelp6 HLP files

  Hi all
  
  I worked on a project to HTML help in RoboHelp 6 (generates the CHM file). Now the boss wants me to generate a. Project HLP file.
  
  Is this possible? If so, how?
  
  Thank you

  Another thought. If you used specific features of CHM in your help (e.g. text DHTML menu drop-down), you will have a lot of tweaking to do with a Winhelp file. Also if I remember correctly, you will lose all index and table of contents when you import your Word file so that they will have to be rebuilt.

• RoboHelp HTML Version 11 and RoboHelp HTML to 2015 - why SEARCH has stopped working

  Have a Robo HTML V11 existing project that has generated hundreds of times successfully. Updated for Robo 2015, copied all project files in a new folder.

  1. Convert the copied project of Robo2015
  2. Generated WebHelp and copied to the server
  3. Continually receive error message when you try to use the SEARCH.
     Receive the following error messages:
     
     Then
     
  4. Cannot clear the error or reset the SEARCH.

  Reinstalled Robo HTML V11

  The original project folder has been opened in RoboHelp HTML V11 and now this project, when generated, no more a work of RESEARCH.

  Tried to delete the whxdata folder in the hope that will regenerate recreate properly, obviously did not work.

  Can someone shed light on this situation and provide a solution. I have updated the online help for the application, but may not post an online help system that doesn't have a SEARCH function works
