Question

Pagination check box unavailable

In the Project Settings > Conversion Settings dialog box, when I try to edit the mapping from my Framemaker styles to RH styles, the Pagination check box is unavailable (greyed out). I am linking Framemaker 9 files to RoboHelp 8. Does anyone know why this option would suddenly become unavailable? Here are a couple screen shots showing the behavior. The first one shows a style that has Pagination selected (I can't deselect it):

The second one shows a style that doesn't have pagination selected (I can't select it):

I scrolled through all my styles, and the Pagination option is unavailable for all of them.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Finally figured it out...I'm creating topic names based on topic name markers in the Frame files, which overrides and disables the pagination option.

It would be nice if the online help made note of this caveat in the topic that describes the pagination option, as it would have saved me hours of searching around. Hopefully this post will help someone else in the future!
