The steps to produce and view international CHM?

[Guest]

It would be most helpful to hear from somebody who actually did it which steps are exactly necessary. The project is Russian, and I would need to view the output in Rusian.

If I set the project settings and the local system language to Russian (language setting in the HPP is 0x419), then I can produce a CHM and all HTML pages are fine, but..

* The window title is scrambled text, perhaps an ANSI conversion of the Russian unicode title. In the HHP file, the title is displayed correctly as it should be.

* The index shows the same problem in the CHM, but is already produced with wrong characters by RoboHelp.

* The TOC on the other side if fine too.

I feel that it may be only a small step left, but I find no more options.Releated issues were covered in several previous posts, but none of the suggestions I found solved the problem.

Hi Robert

Sorry but I believe the only way to see the file totally in Russian is to run it on a Russian version of the Windows Operating System.

Rick,
thanks for the fast info. Do you know of a way to install this on top of an existing Windows, i.e. by adding a language package or something like that?

By the way, I do see a Russian window title now. But I have to open the HHP, convert it to ANSI, and copy the original Russian title into the Options section. Then, when I generate using the HHW, the title is actually displayed correctly with Russian characters.
