Mapping FM figure/table caption pgf formats to Robohelp 15 style

Hello fellows,

I have an FM 13 book linked to a Robohelp project and I am in the middle of mapping the FM pgf styles to RH styles.

I don't see a way to map FM figure/table captions to any similar RH style as there isn't any. As far as I understand, setting the mapping to Source isn't recommended.

Any ideas how to proceed?

Additional question is how to map the FM Note/Caution tables to a similar table in HTML?

Thank you in advance!

Can't help you with the captions as I don't use them in my FM to RH project, but aren't they listed as a FM paragraph tag? Can you give us a screenshot of what your Conversion Settings screen looks like? I'm sure that there is a Table mapping section in there IIRC. BTW - the Source mapping can work fine - it will just give you a RH style called "FM_xxxx" where xxxx is the FM para tag name.

Hi Jeff,

Thank you for your response!

Yes, the FM Figure Title and Table Title pfg tags are listed, but I wonder if there is a need to map them to some HTML tag/style. I read somewhere that mapping to Source is not a good practice as the CSS is then full of irregular tags (as you mentioned, "FM_xxxx").

My Note and Caution tables have a corresponding icon in the 1st column and text in the second column. I don't see a way to create a similar table in RH. How do I preserve the icon in the 1st column?

Thanks for your input in advance!

Did the table just not come over? I don't do anything special with my tables & they appear in the RH topic just fine. About the only thing that I fiddle with in the Conversion Settings is pagination, excluded character tags, setting bullets & numbered lists to come over as HTML Lists, and one of my xrefs to be translated as paratext$ instead of Source (it's a see "X" on page "Y" xref format that makes no sense in WebHelp output).
