I running Robohelp HTML 6 and I am trying to generate printed documentation in pdf format.
For some reason it does not include all images. These are gif and jpg files.
I can't figure out why it includes some images and not others.

I am also having a problem with images being added to printed documentation. I am not getting any of my images
added.

Have you figured out anything on this yet?

Anyone else have any idea what could be the problem?

Thanks.

To both of you, take a look at the pages on my site about Printed Documentation and Print Issues. Maybe they will highlight what is going wrong.

I'm having this same issue as well. I use the following formats: gif, png, jpg. There doesn't appear to be a rhyme or a reason for some images to show up and others to not. All images show up in the online help, and yet several (about 60%) do not show up in the printed documentation (PDF or Word). It's notable to mention that the Word output does have a placeholder the same size as the image, however it's not linked to the image when you view the properties.

This is highly frustrating and I'm under a deadline which is that much tighter now that I have to go in and re-add so many images manually.

Peter Grainge, your site is informative and looks like you spent a lot of time on it. I have bookmarked it for future reference, however, in this instance it was unable to provide resolution.

Suggestions?

I discovered that the images that were missing in the printed doc were surrounded by H3 tags instead of P tags. I replaced the H3 tags with P tags and now all the images show up in the printed doc.
