Migration from Help and Manual to Robohelp

Hi there

I'm unaware of a way or a utility that would allow you to seamlessly suck in a Help and Manual project and convert it to a RoboHelp project.

Aside from simply importing the HTML files into a project you are then faced with how to get the variables and other things created. As for the variables, I believe that RoboHelp ships with two scripts that may be used to crawl the project and create variables. So that might be pretty straightforward.

As for snippets, you DO have an ability to select text in a topic, right-click it and choose Add to > Snippets. But I'm unaware of an easy way to scan the project and find all instances of the same stuff and convert it to a Snippet. Perhaps Willam van Weelden‌ knows a way to easily do it using a script. Or you might contract with him to create you a script to do it.

Cheers... Rick
