Question

 character auto-added to random topics during Frameless (Orange) generation

Environment

RoboHelp 2019 (New UX - v2019.0.9)

Windows 10

Chrome, Firefox, etc.

 

 

It doesn't appear on all topics. And there's no pattern to which topics it appears on. To make it even more confusing, it often changes which topics it appears on each time I compile. If I edit a topic/htm file in a text editor, this is where the character is being inserted (red, bold text below - note that it appears twice in this example):

Strike that. I just received an email notification that your mail server rejected it because the attachment was too large (it's 9MB). Please advise!

Surbhi,

 

Thank you for your attention on this issue! I emailed a zipped copy of the project. Let me know if you don't receive it.

 

Thanks!

Hi,

This issue should not come with default Encoding. I have been able to see this issue with different encodings. Can you please share your project with us at sumahesh@adobe.com?

We will invetiagte it asap. Also please mention the preset you are generating in the same email.

Thanks and Regards,
Surbhi Maheshwari

Sorry but the person dealing with it is in a country where there is a national holiday Monday and Tuesday. I will email them on Wednesday.

Hi,

 

When you are generating Frameless output, have you set any encoding in General tab of preset?

 

Thanks and Regards,

Hello! No, it's set to <Default Encoding>.

 

Additional information: On occasion, I'll generate the frameless output, go test it, observe that the problem character doesn't appear; I then go generate the exact same frameless output again (without making any changes or touching anything else in RH2019 whatsoever), and the problem character appears in several topics in the resulting output.

I am liaising with Adobe but because of time zones I don't expect an answer until tomorrow.
