This may be a silly post however im having an issue i cant resolve. I am currently using a trial version of Robohelp 6 to create some online help documentation. We also want to convert this into PDF format to distribute physical copies of the help (once we have purchased the software if we decide to do so). However when i have converted my work into PDF there is an extra blank page added after the title and after the contents page. Could anyone please tell me how i can remove these pages as it makes the entire piece of work look unprofessional and none usable.

Id be very grateful for any help.

Click the Advanced button on the first page of the Wizard and turn off Start each Chapter on an Odd page.

When i generate a Word file instead the extra pages seem to have disappeared however if you go into 'Print Preview' view they are they again. Its very odd. There doesnt seem to be any hidden page breaks or line breaks in there just the usual ones. I also turned off 'Start Each Topic on a New Page', but that was no help either. All of the work i have done myself is fine its just the auto generated pages at the start that are causing issues it would seem.

Welcome to the forum

I don't get that when I generate to Word first. Try that and see if you still get the extra pages.

A lot of people do produce documents that way so that the TOC is facing page when printed double sided.

Also try turning off Start Each Topic on a New Page. Not sure if that will affect this part of the document without testing but it's worth a try.
