Book linking to a PDF file - conditional tah

[TW_MaryseC]

Good morning,

In the TOC of a help project, we have a book linking to a PDF file. This book must be appears in he A.chm help file but not in the B.chm help file.

My question is : It is possible to add a conditional tag on this book? If yes, I would like to know how to do this.

Thanks!

You can't add a tag to a book but I'm thinking that you may be able to achieve this by using a little redirection. If you create a redirect topic as shown in Rick Stone's tips n tricks file linked to the PDF and add a tag to this topic, you could exclude the tag from your B.chm file.

You could also create a topic that contains a link to the PDF file. This approach allows you to apply a conditional build tag to the topic.

Yes you can redirect to a PDF. If all else fails you can follow ChetZeshonski's advice.

Hi all

Something you may want to look at an article I created for "conditionalizing" the TOC and Index. You may view that by clicking here.
