Project templates for FrameMaker to RH mappings

Question

Hello,I just noticed a sample script installed with Robohelp called Project Template Generator (Project Template Generator.jsx).Does anyone know what this script does exactly and how I would import it into another project?I would like to have a way in which to save all my project mappings, and the Save Settings to and subsequent Load settings from functions accessible in the Project settings dialog doesn't work for my FM template (our company template is a bit complicated and has a lot of tags). I've contacted Adobe support and they couldn't get this feature to work with my template either, so I'm really interested in the Project Template Generator script...I know how to run a script, but I don't know what this script does exactly, and how I'd import it into a new project.Thanks in advance.Sue

It is intended to create a new RoboHelp project with all the same settings and content that are defined in the template. It is described on my site at http://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/project_templates/templates.htm

There's just one teensy weensy problem, the script is flawed!

I managed to get the replacement script referenced to work by immediately closing the new project, trashing the CPD and reopening the project but that was in simple tests.

I don't know if it would hold the settings you want.

Take a look at what is on my site and post back any questions. Right now though I am off to bed as it's late here.
