Hello.

I would like to open a pdf file automatically when clicking on a topic. At the minute I have an image with a hyperlink to the document but this is one click too many really - I just want it to open but I cant find an option to do it. Is there a function in Robohelp for this?

Cheers

Pieman

    Hi there

    You can link to a PDF from a TOC node to the PDF.

    Or you could use a redirect topic that opens the PDF when it displays.

    Or you could use an Inline Frame (IFRAME) inside a topic.

    Which version of RoboHelp are you using?

    Cheers... Rick
