My (FrameMaker 12) Paragraph, Character, etc., styles are not available under RoboHelp 11's FrameMaker Settings on the Project Settings > Conversion Settings form.

However, when I create a new project and select Import > "Edit conversion settings for FrameMaker documents," the styles do appear on the Conversion Settings form.

Why are the styles not brought into the new RoboHelp 11 project?

Is there a way in RoboHelp to bring them in post the New > Project process?

If you haven’t indicated a FM file to bring in yet, RH doesn’t know about the FM character/paragraph/etc. tags. You can export an .isf file from a pre-existing project that will remember some settings in the case of a linking situation, but importing doesn’t save much info about the old project settings.

I realized I imported my FrameMaker book rather than linking it.
