Import FrameMaker info new RoboHelp project with extendscript

It does depend on how fancy you want to make it. Creating a GUI with

file picker is quite a bit of work.

But if you only want a script to create a new project and import an FM

book, that's not too hard. For example:

RoboHelp.newProject('', 'MyProject', 'C:\temp\rh\scriptproject',

'MyProjectTitle',);

RoboHelp.project.importFrameMakerDoc('D:\FM\FMBook.bk','FMFolderinRH','D:\FM\FMBookTOC.fm','RHTOCName',true,'RHIndexName','RHGlossary');

(Untested)

Run RH via command line with the script name as parameter: robohtml.exe

-x script.jsx

There is not much information on ExtendScript in RoboHelp. You can find

two introductory articles in the RoboHelp Developer Center to get you

started: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/robohelp.html

If you want to do something more advanced, I have a free RH library for

extendscript to make working with scripts easier. It includes functions

as reading/writing files, setting context sensitivity, saving settings

and more. See
