Question

Is Robohelp 11 still available either as trial version or to buy?

I downloaded Robohelp 2015 the other day. A company from which we receive some help projects is using RH 11 while we are at RH 9.

To stay in sync and to be able to work on their project (we have to extract some portions and build our own HTMLHelp project/files)

we need keep up to RH11.

I found that the project build window in the left column (to build a Microsoft HTMLHelp file) is not there. There seem to be an item Microsoft HTML Help in the ribbon bar though. But despite from rearrangements of elements in a new look and feel (possibly WPF or sth.) I cannot see any advantage of RH2015 over RH 11 or RH 9.

And I don't think any improvements have been made on MS HTML Help generation since it was an obsolescent model for years anyway (but still being used in many places).

It is still available at Adobe, but they don't advertise it. If you want to download the trial, see: Adobe Direct Download Links Without Akamai Download Manager | TECHNOLUX There are links for RH9, but if you change the version in the file name, you can get RH11 as well.

As for licensing, Adobe doesn't sell the RH11 licenses anymore. A third party supplier might still have them around. But if you have a subscription plan for RoboHelp, you can also use that for your RoboHelp 11. In that case, you can run RH11 and 2015 side by side using the same license.

Hi William,

thanks for the tip. In principle that is nice, but it turns out to be difficult. I'm on the page of TECHNOLUX and I found the RoboHelp9 link. Editing the 9 to 11 leads to a "file not found" error. It seems to work if I change the 9 into 10. But not with the "11".

Or am I doing sth. wrong?

It seems the URL changed. The correct one is: http://trials3.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/RBHP/11/win32/RoboHelp_11_LREFDJ.7z
