• RoboHelp 2015 - batch generate with conditional compilation tags broken?

  Hello everyone.

  My company has recently upgraded to Technical Communication Suite 2015 and today we try to generate online help for the first time with RoboHelp 2015. We have been batch generating (rhcl.exe) for about a year with no problems... and today I have problems in conditional tag of major works. I'll try to be as detailed as possible, in the hope that the community can tell me if I'm doing something wrong.

  System: RoboHelp 2015 on Windows 7 64 bit. WebHelp layout. Upgraded project of HR 11 a week ago.

  
  

  Setting up a project

  In most of the topics, we have a 'See also' section at the end, with a few links. This section is tagged with the 'Online' CBT (so that we can exclude the PDF output).

  There are 4-5 CBT by module.

  My conditional compilation expression is: NOT print AND NO risk AND NO WIP. The expression is named Test. This conditional compilation expression is stored in a WebHelp SSL called VALUE. The 'Online' tag appears correctly under tags available and it is certainly not excluded.

  The problem

  I use the following command;

  "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Adobe RoboHelp 2015\RoboHTML\rhcl.exe ' 'D:\technical_documentation\my_project\my_project.xpj'-l 'Test' o 'D:\help_builds\my_master\mergedProjects\my_project '.

  In the output, all the content that is tagged with Online is not visible, even if the tag was not excluded!

  I tried a few other scenarios and the results are even more confusing to me. I scored some random text with some other tags ('link', 'afds' and 'value') - labeled content 'link' and 'afds' is not visible, but the content labeled 'Value' is... Although none of these tags have been excluded!

  If I generate RoboHelp, not with the lot, everything works fine, without changes in the SSL settings.

  Am I right in thinking this is a new bug? Perhaps rhcl.exe support incorrectly the improvements in tag conditional compilation in HR 2015? I will record a bug if this is the case, but I would like some opinions firstly thank you!

  Adobe have studied this problem and managed to reproduce it.

  I suggest that report you it as a bug so that Adobe can contact you if they need more information.

• Two Rhcl.exe files (one for each version). How to make the latest version rhcl.exe a recognized command?

  Hi all

  I have two versions installed:

  RoboHELP 9

  RoboHELP 2015

  We are in transition slowly our project in RoboHELP 9. For the moment, I can't uninstall RoboHELP 9, because I still have need for some of my projects.

  The problem that I am running is:

  The RoboHELP command-line compiler, rhcl.exe, is not compile all the subjects.

  Our main help, when I compile it from Magnatune RoboHELP, is usually about 25 MB. When I compile the same help to use the RoboHELP command-line compiler, it's only 4 MB. That's a lot of missing content.

  Here is a smaller output showing the same problem:

  

  The compilation log shows a bunch of them:

  HHC5003: error:

  Compilation failed when compiling planner\Planner__Introduction.htm.

  I think the problem is with the two versions I installed, it attempts to compile a RoboHELP 2015 project with a compiler of RoboHELP 9.

  I checked that each version has its own rhcl.exe.

  I've renamed the RoboHELP 9 one to "rhcl.exebak" so that it doesn't get used, and now my batch file wrote:
  '' rhcl.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command.'

  This indicates to me that he was using the RoboHELP 9 compiler.

  How can I get to recognize the rhcl.exe that comes with HR 2015?

  I tried to add my own system pointing to the RH2015 rhcl.exe environment variable, but that does not work either.

  That's what I thought I was doing by adding my own environment variable, but maybe I was doing something wrong.

  In any case, I did a search online, and it says to change the PATH variable.

  In this variable, I added the path to include the folder of the current rhcl.exe.

  

  Then I rebooted.

  It looks like it could work now. * Phew *.

• Strange error with RHCL RH10 and RH11 command-line compilation

  Hello once again, RoboHelp gurus!

  I feel a strange error using the compilation process command-line rchl in RoboHelp 10 and 11 of RoboHelp.

  Here is the command I use:

  CD "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Adobe RoboHelp 10\RoboHTML.

  RhCl "C:\folder\project.xpj"-l "SSL_Name" o "c:\outputfolder" g "C:\log\folder\logfile.txt".

  When I generate the log of the cmd file, I see an error "LILo: BIBCientInit could not initialize" twice in the window of cmd prompt while compiling is the treatment.  The cmd prompt window looks like this:

  
  

  C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Adobe RoboHelp 10\RoboHTML > RhCl "C:\projectfolder\project.xpj"-l "SSL_Name" o "c:\outputfolder" g "C:\logfolder\logfile.txt" [press ENTER]
  

  LILo: Could not initialize BIBCientInit
  

  LILo: Could not initialize BIBCientInit

  C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Adobe RoboHelp 10\RoboHTML >

  
  

  The created FichierJournal.txt has no mention of ""LILo: BIBCientInit could not initialize "it contains."  Compiling builds without problem, as far as I can tell.

  
  

  The same thing happens when I do not create the log during the cmd file and it errors record right "compensation output folder.  But, it seems to me that the output folder does not actually get disabled.

  
  

  This allows the viewing of the compilation process line by line in the cmd prompt window.  When the compiler indicates "output Compensation folder...". ', the ' LILo: BIBCientInit failed to initialize "error message appears twice, and then the process continues.

  Here's the command:

  CD "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Adobe RoboHelp 10\RoboHTML.

  RhCl 'C:\folder\project.xpj'-l 'SSL_Name' o 'c:\outputfolder '.

  The cmd prompt window looks like this:

  
  

  C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Adobe RoboHelp 10\RoboHTML > RhCl 'C:\projectfolder\project.xpj'-l 'SSL_Name' o 'c:\outputfolder"[press ENTER]

  It's okay if it's a HTMLHelp or WebHelp output.  Any thoughts on what is this error and what is the cause?

  I've been away from RoboHelp for about 9 months, but I'll be back on the same projects and the same version of RoboHelp 10 and the same compilation process.  The difference is that I have a new laptop.

  Thank you very much in advance for your time!

• RHCL do not pick up to the table of contents or index

  Hello

  We used RoboHTML 9.0.2 for our documentation. We connecting to our legacy word documents and generate webhelp from those. It works very well.

  We do not seek to the script process. We try to use RHCL from the command line to update the webhelp every night. The problem is that the index and the table of contents is not included in the generated file.

  I created a quick test with all our normal parameters project, and it works very well from the GUI of RoboHTML. When I indicated that I wanted to import the table of contents and the index of the working paper, I was asked to enter a new name for each. So for the Index, I have an empty index generated automatically with the same name as the project ("Demo_Wrapper"), which was initially marked as default. I have another clue, which bears the name I gave ("DW_Ind"). This index is up to date and complete the correct information. I have a setup similar to the table of contents.

  We cannot understand why everything is fine in the script generated webhelp outside these aspects. For example, the skin is correctly copied everywhere.

  Any help is more than welcome.

  Thank you

  Steve

  Hello Steve,.

  You can follow these steps:

  (1) open RobohelpHTML and double click the release you want to generate RHCL (launch Robohelp HTML 9-> under single Source Layout Pod-> Double click on WebHelp)

  (2) Webhelp settings window, under content, choose your default content categories

  (3) choose your table of contents Index & Drop Down Menu and save changes

  (4) generate WebHelp output of command RHCL, table of contents and the Index should appear this time

  Note: Assuming you generate WebHelp

  Hope this helps!

  Thank you.

• RHCL in RH9 does not

  I changed 8 HR 9 HR. I can open my 'old' projects All right.

  Now, I tried my old batch file that generates WebHelp and creates a zip of all at the end I checked and changed paths in the command file. When I run the batch file appears an error message: invalid project for RHCL. Recreate the project with RoboHelp. (translated from German)

  What does this message mean? All the names and paths are correct.

  I suggested that this only happens with the projects of "old." Then I created a new project with RH 9 and I created a new batch file. In the end, I got the same result.

  Concerning

  Danny

  When other new functions of the RH 9 testing I got errors about missing MSXML. So, we downloaded and installed and surprise... RHCL works now!

  So the problem was: MSXML was missing.

  It would be great, if an error message can be added to the HR which gives a hint that MSXML is missing.

• "Batch File translate" systematically blocks...

  Hello

  I often need to translate files. Copy in Google Translate is a mess. I installed "Batch queue Translater" (sic) to try to help with this, but whenever I try to translate anything, it crashes with:

  Request for clarification:

  "Reason for termination due to an untrapped exception"NSInvalidArgumentException"app,: ' * setObjectForKey: object cannot be null (key: newspaper)"

  Abort() called

  ending with an exception uncaught of print type

  I tried disk utility. I removed preferences in containers and restarted and encountered the same bug. I can't find anything that describes this type of error with "key: newspaper.

  The app is broken. Application developers must fix.

  We try to put something preferably or similar in a dictionary and it's not by the way of the real object they wish to store. For some reason that you can not solve, it's nothing passed to the command and so it fails.

  Contact the developer. If the program in the App Store, it has a link to their support site on the page of the App Store.

• NO batch export emails (with the exception of one at a time)

  Cannot export files in a batch by e-mail. Des/export addon does not install. Is - it is no longer possible? I don't want my profile or just an e-mail sent from a different computer to my laptop using thunderbird as well. I use to be able to drag them on a USB key in a heap. Should I reinstall TB?

  Find what exactly? I never had no problem with the ImportExportTools add-on - we. https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Thunderbird/addon/ImportExportTools/

  The first thing I would do after installing an add-on is look for it under Tools | Modules to ensure it had installed, and check if she had all the settings or options that would be useful or important to me. In doing so, I would allow it, of course if for some reason, it was not already enabled. This particular module has many parameters to consider.

• Batch instead of doc pages conversion

  Hi friends,

  I decided to go completely of the word Pages (and also Excel to numbers etc.). It has been a long time coming, hampered mainly by the inconvenience of having a large existing collection of Word documents that I need to save to the format of Pages (and then manually delete the original Word file) then, or don't forget to export them to Word.

  So my request is simple: can someone help me with an Applescript or Automator workflow that I can point to a file or a selection of Word documents (or even a more containing Word documents and other files), which will be open them in Pages, save them up as Pages and then delete or ideally move to a folder on the desktop the original Word file?

  Unfortunately, my experience with Applescript and Automator is limited. I'm willing to learn, but I am writing here in the hope that someone might have tried this before. It seems strange that it is not a tool of migration there for people willing to engage fully in Pages, Numbers and Keynote. Apparently a lot of tools exist for ing the other way, but nothing for people so impressed with iWork they want to completely drop MS Office.

  The two really important parts of what I would be a lie to do is from the Save in place (so I don't need to re - drop everything) and move the original Word doc to a folder somewhere (so I can find it again if something had gone wrong and archive or delete it easily later).

  Any suggestions or pointers appreciated!

  Tom

  Tom,

  Move your entire collection of Word to Pages document is a very bad idea, based on three years of posts in the support Pages community.

  • Pages is not a clone of Word and lacks most of the functionality of Word of professional level you will soon run out.
  • Pages is not guaranteed to open or export documents Word accurately with some features do not exist in both applications.
  • Pages never will allow you to open, edit and save Word documents in their native document architecture. Everything, including export is an exercise in translation of cross-your-fingers.
  • Pages will simply not open Word documents that are too old or too inconsistent.
  • No other application on the planet cannot open Pages v5 documents.

  Recommended alternative: 2016 Office for Mac.

  There are answers here to simply download the free LibreOffice, which is a replacement for MS Office suite. Even with manuals PDF LibreOffice, there is not a rapid mapping of your skills of Word/Excel for LibreOffice Writer and Calc. It has some of the best compatibility of Word and Excel documents, after these two applications Microsoft themselves. But there is a learning curve 'tax' to become proficient in LibreOffice, who skip a lot in their recommendation of it.

  It is a relatively simple exercise of AppleScript coding to batch convert Word into Pages documents, but the challenge you face is that Pages will throw a warning dialog box whenever it encounters a Word document with import warnings or errors. When this occurs, it interrupts the script which may intervene in the process of importing Pages.

• How can I batch of E-mail files in folders instead of one at a time?

  I save my subscription by E-mail in separate folders but I've been lax in filing and have more than 700 to file. After is sorting by sender a way for the batch instead of one file at a time? I use Thunderbird 38.01

  You use the methods of standard selection on the computer.

  Select message 1, up or down several message and hold the SHIFT key while clicking on the message 2 = this will select message 1 and 2 and all the messages between the two

  Hold down the CTRL key while clicking random messages = this will select any message clicked on.

  When you have selected messages you can right-click and select move to or drag and drop. Moving to is easier and more reliable when you work with multiple messages.

  I will not try and move all messages from 700 in one shot. Break it down into smaller batches.

• The addon Dowload batch no longer allows me to batch upload a bunch of photos, it gives an error message.

• Batch conversion "opens with".

  I am a musician pro and often the default application for files audio iTunes - is there a way to batch processing, change the preference "opens with" for a group of files to another application?

  Yes, change you it in the read window information from all of the files, as long as they are of the same type of file. Click to get information, and choose the Application you want to open. Then, choose change all.

• Date and time of change of batch

  Mac running El Capitan with the latest version of Photo

  When I try to batch change date and time on some old 50 photos that have been digitized on days different and downloaded in the library of my pictures the results aren't good. The days and hours can vary a lot.

  When I checked and changed a lot of photos that have been taken or analyzed the day everything seems to work fine. Why? Is there a simple work around?

  If you do not change the dates butare, added dates for digital photographs (Digital Photos do not have EXIF/IPTC data then do not use the control change time data - using the user script Script: batch change Date and time on a fixed Date )

• Batch convert docs Pages in .pdf

  I have a big folder of docs Pages (5.6.2) I want to convert .pdfs. I have Adobe Acrobat Pro (10.1.16), but have not figured out who to do this.) Does anyone know one way that laboriously open each .doc and print to .pdf?

  Roger,

  I have a script that allows you to interactively select the Pages or Word documents, a folder of this mixture, or a combination of files and folders. She also works as a target of drag and drop for the elements of the first sentence. In both cases of execution, documents will be converted to the same location of system files with the PDF extension. Other features:

  1. Use the workflow Automator composed of Ask for items in the Finder and filter actions items Finder that allow files and folders multiple selection, then filter for the record, pages, files of Word.doc/.docx. This particular implementation does not raise the file picker on everywhere in windows.
  2. Selectable PDF export quality
     1. Interactive mode: Pages v5.6 + offers export image quality settings. A list of popups of quality is provided. Default value is best.
     2. Mode of drag and drop: Pages If v5.6 +, then the default is best PDF. No interactivity.
     3. Either mode: No Pages v5.6 +, then export Pages by default quality which is likely good. Cannot be set programmatically in the script.
  3. Visibility of extension PDF
     1. By default the Pages exported with hidden extension.
     2. Script forces finder to make the visible extension.
        
  4. Finder comment
     1. Get Info comment in the PDF document displays the version of Pages who wrote the PDF and the quality setting.
        
  5. Notification at the end of the treatment.
     1. At the end of the treatment, a panel of Notification will be drag from the right and the number of records processed.
        

  Because of all the extra features, the AppleScript code is long but reasonably readable (and tested). You will need to create a workflow Automator action-two requesting the files and folders, using AppleScript. I'll give you detailed instructions. Is this something that you want to implement? If so, my follow-up post will have everything you need batch convert any Pages or Word files to PDF.
