Hi Eileen
I saw your other post when you said you hadn't been able to
get FAR to work. I would have stepped in but you seemed to have
found a solution that worked for you. So we are with a follow up.
The problem you are hitting is how the various find and
replace tools work. Many of them, RoboHelp included, will only find
the string if it is on one line of your code. FAR and BK are
different. With FAR the trick is to specify in the Advanced Find a
small string that will always be on one line for the Starting With
field and likewise in Ending With, then have something in
Containing or Not Containing if you can. That will not be affected
by white space.
You refer to <font> tags but do you mean the tag is
just that or that there is something else?
You could start with <font and end with >. I think that
would get ALL the font tags but you need to do a dummy run and have
a backup. You would also need to do and find and replace on
</font> as well. My concern in this is that often RH will
work with Style and Span tags on things like this.
Could you post some examples?
