I inherited a user manual, originally in the form of a
monolithic MS Word document from which PDFs could be created in any
number of ways - and an outsourced RH *.chm help file.
We have moved to the Tech Comm Suite (patched.to latest
level).
I have successfully converted the manual to a FM book, the
PDF's are fine and I can even generate an RH file - of sorts.
To get the RH formating to be as before I tried to
open/import/... the old CHM file - without success, despite the
existence of instructions how to do it in the RH Help - do a search
on "Decompile". The so-called HTML studio doesn't exist in the TCS
version of RH.
(There are third party decompilers, but they are less than
satisfactory since there is no obvious way to use their output with
RH.)
1. I found the HTML Studio. Adobe needs to update the RH 7
help file.
2. RH version - TCS standard offering, 7.01
By the way, I did a bit more poking around this morning and
came up with this:
http://www.keyworks.net/. It
supplies a decompiler including an hhp file that worked for me.
As my friend and colleague Peter stated, the offline help
works better. So why my post? It's to advise that you may need to
close and restart RoboHelp in order to see a change in the help you
get from RoboHelp. At least, on my PC I have to. Maybe others will
be different. But I thought I'd mention it in case you decide to
try it and didn't see anything change.
