My client request... can generate us a PDF file without going through Word...?

Use: HTML HR 7.0.3.

Hi all

A customer has invested time in creating a good CSS stylesheet and the model of RoboHelp to create a nice looking CHM HTML Help. My client wants to find a way of creating a document PDF looking nice without having to invest more time in the development of a model of good word for export to PDF.

The client asked me what seems to be a stupid question on PDF generation. Is there such a thing as the generation of a PDF file without using Word? -(Whatever that means). My client seems to think that there is a way. But as my client has requested, I invite you all...

I tried the fast way of simply by clicking on the PDF icon and see what happens. So HR generated a PDF, for me without asking me for more info. The recorder output clearly showed that HR was first to create a * Word file *. And of course when I looked into its target folder, I saw there was also a * Word doc *, finished one minute earlier. A sure sign, I think, that first created the Word doc and then to HR created the PDF file. (Btw, I don't know where HR got the table of contents of this generation of PDF - looks like a ghost of OCD I used months ago.)

Then I tried using the wizard to generate the carrycot single Source Layouts. One of the steps in this wizard invites you to select a template, including any * model Word * you fed HR in the past. Once again a good sign, IMO, than the initial process to make a PDF file is the same as for make a Word doc.

On you all.
TIA
Avraham

HR is creating a Word document, but if you turn off the word box, it is not saved. What you saw, it was probably an old document. Delete it and publish just a PDF file and you shouldn't be able to see the Word temporary document that is created.

In the wizard, you don't have to select a Word template, it's just one of the options.

The content of the page is not related to your table of contents. It takes the contents of a table of contents when you first create the print layout, but then the two are autonomous. You can't layout seems to be identical to the table of contents. If you do, use arrows to erase, and then replace it with the current TOC.

It's covered in printed materials and on my site.

  • Since recently update (Pro or reader, don't know which), I can't open the PDF files without any first download. don't know how to fix it!

    I've updated, and now I can no longer show all files on the web without having to download everything first. It's very frustrating. want to go back to the way it was, but don't know how.

    You shouldn't need both Acrobat and Reader. That said, I suggest trying to open Acrobat and help > repair. Also check the plugins or addons to your browser.

  • RH7: PDF Generation of the project without going through Word

    All,
    I have a user who is try the trial of RoboHelp 7 and wants to know when to generate PDF output, is there a way to bypass the creation of a Word document and go straight to the PDF document. Word is still used this way to get a printed Documentation doesn't matter if a PDF file is made or not?

    Any info would be much appreciated.

    Thank you
    Greg

    Leon and everyone,
    Thanks for all your suggestions and comments. The HR user is dead set against using Word to generate the PDF file. In other research, we found RH7 and Flare to use Word as an intermediary in the generation of the PDF file. However, importing files FrameMaker in RH7 briefly gave us hope that the problem has been resolved by issuing to FrameMaker and PDF format. Much to our surprise, we found the RH7 can import FrameMaker files but cannot export to FrameMaker files.

    The user is in a different business unit and does not use HR. Since the release of FrameMaker is important to them, RH7, don't meet their needs.

    Thanks again for all your help.

  • How can I bitlock a device without going through the appropriate menus and related software to lock and unlock a device?

    Original title: ILO-locked usb device

    I have a 64 GB... new USB key... and put music on it. After a while, I decided to use it for another use, but could not remove the files because the device is write-protected. I never write protect anything.

    I had an individual look of microsoft cert to the USB and he said it was not locked.

    I did some research on bit locker and Win 7 Pro and discovered that I can't find the Group Policy Editor where all bit locker said tech data is located.

    So, how can I lock bit, a device without going through the appropriate menus and associated software application necessary to lock and unlock a device?

    Hello

    When you turn off BitLocker, you can either disable BitLocker temporarily or to decrypt the volume. Disable BitLocker allows TPM and other minor changes module changes the system. Decrypt the volume means that the volume will be entirely decrypted, and that all the keys are ignored. You must decrypt a computer before the operating system upgrade. Once a volume is decrypted, you must generate new keys through the encryption process again once, if you want to enable BitLocker.

    Before you start

    > You must be logged in as an administrator.

    > The volume must be encrypted.

    To turn off BitLocker Drive encryption

    (a) click Start, click Control Panel, click Security, and then click BitLocker Drive Encryption.

    (b) from the BitLocker Drive Encryption page, find the volume on which you want BitLocker Drive Encryption goes off, and click turn off BitLocker Drive Encryption.

    (c) what level of decryption do you want the dialog box, click disable BitLocker Drive Encryption or decrypt the volume as required.

    (d) by performing this procedure, you have disabled BitLocker or decrypted the operating system volume.

    For more information, see the articles:

  • Having to reinstall Windows.  Lightroom is an upgrade going back to version 2.  Can I install version 5 without going through an older version installed?

    Need to re - install windows.  My version of Lightroom 5 is an upgrade going all the way back to version 2.  Can I re - install version 5 without going through an older version installed?

    Normally you only have to provide proof that you are eligible to use the upgrade version.  This can be accomplished either have the old version (aka: eligible version) installed or identifying that the version and serial number when you activate the new installation.

  • I can't find the pdf file using the Edit menu bar | To find

    I can't find a pdf file in Firefox. I select the form to change the bar then find menu in the menu dropdown. I then get a research work in the lower part of the right text box but she blushed and does nothing.

    When I view the same pdf file in Internet Explorer, it works.

    I solved this problem by going to Tools/Options and change the setting of "Adobe Acrobat Document" to "Use Acrobat reader (in Firefox)" to "(by default) use Acrobat Reader.
    Sounds illogical to me, but it works.
