Anyone know if I can permit another machine to use my Robohelp license simply to build the help at the command line in an automated build environment? By this I mean, I want to continue having robohelp installed on my machine for my authoring use and ALSO have my same robohelp instance installed on anothe machine in our continuous integration environment so that my help files can be built automatically (command line builds only) as part of our frequent application builds. I hope this makes sense! thank you in advance for your help

    My understanding is that Rh can be installed on two machines provided they are not in simultaneous use.

    Peter - thank you so much for replying to this!

    this leaves me with 2 quick questions:

    1. I should have clarified that my question was related to RoboHelp 8. Does this change your answer at all?

    2. Also - now that you've replied, I believe I need to get an official answer from Adobe. How do I go about doing that? I cannot seem to find a phone number or email address...

    thank you!
