    Does RoboHelp 10 include RoboHelp for Word?

      Does RoboHelp 10 include RoboHelp for Word? The earlier version RoboHelp 9 included RoboHelp for Word.

       

      Thanks in advance.

          I have not installed the full RoboHelp 10 version but in previous versions there was an option to install the RoboHelp for Word application. Are you using the trial RoboHelp 10 version? If so, I suspect this will not include the RoboHelp for Word application.

            I reinstalled Adobe RoboHelp 10 all over again but this time more carefully keepign watch at each step. The option to install RoboHelp for Word is present but it's not installed by default and the option itself is not easily noticed during the installation. During installation, you need to select the product 'Adobe RoboHelp 10' in the left pane of the install wizard and it shows up the list of sub-options (one of the sub-options is RoboHelp for Word) in the right pane of the install wizard.

             

            I contacted Adobe Support and convinced them to log an product enhancement request from a usability perspective.

             

            So that's that. RoboHelp for Word is indeed present in RoboHelp 10 but it's not installed by default.

             

            Thanks for posting you reply though.

              That is the same installation methid as RoboHelp 8 and 9. You are obviously a good salesman if you convinced them to change the behaviour. The trouble is just because they are convinced, doesn't mean it will happen. There are so few RH for Word users these days that in my opinion it won't happen. Still good for you for making the point
