Question

Printed Documentation feature

I run the Printed Documentation by generating a Word docx for a hand full of topics, I select Microsoft Word Template and for the template I select Style Mapping.dot and for Map Non-heading Styles I use Projects CSS Styles (used only) and I select the normal style below that section and then I generate.  It goes thru the motions and just before it is completed I get an error message and it closes RoboHelp completely.

Is there a limit to the number of topics I can generate to a Word doc?

I want to understand why this is happening.

Thank you!

Joanna

Hi Joanna.

No there is no limit to the number of topics you can have in printed documentation. Can you tell us what the error message you are getting is?

First please confirm this does not happen if you create a printed output from one of the sample projects. Click Open on the RoboHelp Starter page and then click Samples in the ribbon on the left.

Then delete your project's CPD file and reopen the project.

If still not working, create a build tag called Test. Select half the topics in the Project List and right click, then select Properties to apply the tag. If that generates, you know there is a rogue topic in the other half. Apply the tag to half of them and so on.

What version of Word are you using?
