RoboHelp

Is there a way to make the font size different between 2 topics that use the same snippet? I've noticed that typically you need to set the font size for the snippet, but I want to use the same snippet on two different topics, but want the font size to be different.

Hi folks, I have been requested by my company to put a "hamburger" style button to open the Table of Contents in the top-most landing page of my Help File. Is this possible? I am using RoboHelp 2020 and outputting in a Frameless output.

Hello,I am new to Robohelp, taking a project over from an ex-colleague. All seems to be going reasonably well, except I cannot seem to get the FM index into RH.   I have read messages indicating if the index.htm file does not show up in the RH content folder there is a problem, and I will agree with that statement - the index.htm does not show up in the content - but how do I get it there?   Any and all help appreciated.Barbara Dumas

Hello, I have a new company laptop (Dell Precision 5690 with Microsoft Windows 11 Enterprise) and I have been trying to install Robohelp 2022. It is part of my plan (Creative suite and technical suite) and it still works like a charm on my old computer. I have been able to install the Creative suite apps on ly new laptop without any issues.  But when I go to the 'others' tab (where I supposue the Robohelp could be) I get this error: I also tried to download the 2022.4.0 installer from the Robohelp downloads page (Download Adobe RoboHelp and RoboHelp Server). When I unzip and install as a normal user, the installation stops at 5% and gives me error code 127. If I run the installer as administator, I immediately get the message that the installer is corrupt. My IT support has been looking into the issue, but don't seem to find a solution...  Any ideas here what could be wrong? Thanks!  Machteld  

Hi,I recently upgraded from RH 2022.3 to Rh 2022.5. When I open a project in RH 2022.5 that was originally created with 2022.3 I receive a notification that the project will be migrated. I proceeded with the migration by accepting the dialog, and so far, everything seems fine - except for one issue:There should be new options available for the page properties of a PDF page layout templates (such as page size, orientation, layout, background, and footnote) but they are not showing up. Only the stylesheet option is availabe, just as it was in Update 3.Interestingly, when I create a complete new project all these options are available.Additionally, when I switch to the HTML view and simply copy the meta information from the new project (e.g. <meta name="page-style" content="size:A1 portrait;" />) to the migrated project, it works. So, this could serve as a work around. However, it would be great to have these options available in the UI of a migrated project as well.Does anyone

Im using Robohelp 2022.2.22. Sometimes when I have bullets in a topic they change to numbers in the pdf output. Is there a setting that may be forcing that? Also, font sizes sometimes don't stay consistent with the numbers and the content directly next to them in the output.

We currently have some pdf's that have bookmarks to external files using a url e.g. https://externalsource/PDF_files/file_abc.pdf. We are changing where these files are located and need to update all the bookmarks to be e.g. https://externalsource.com/PDF_files/file_abc.pdf. Is there way to do this in bulk per pdf file or even bulk over multiple files at a time? Once the update is done we would need to remove the javascript from within the PDF for security reasons...potentially. Open for suggestions on other ways to do this in bulk. Sorry if this is a silly question.

I have seen discussions about this here but no solutions. I'm wondering if anyone can advise, other than to say contact Support, as that does not seem to garner a solution either. I have four seperate RH projects, all created by me on the same local drive on the same version of RH. For two of these projects, I am able to generate Word output without issue. But when I try to output to Word on the other two, RH snags at the "Converting mergedHTML.htm" stage and the log contains the following:  . . . . . . .Merging contents/microcontent/Transaction_Inquiries_Reports_and_Logs.htm...Merging contents/microcontent/Roles.htm...Merging contents/microcontent/Fleet_Card_Programs.htm...Converting mergedHTML.htmENOENT: no such file or directory, lstat 'C:\Users\SAMUEL~1\AppData\Local\Temp\RHTMP\Word DocumentpdBiCJ\Fleet 360 Help Word Version.docx'Failed to generate Word Document.

This is a dumb question—let me acknowledge that right out of the gate. I hope it's an easy one to answer.My team is three technical writers, each on a different version of RoboHelp, which you don't have to tell me is a bad idea:2022.32020.x2020.x+1My hope is we can all get up to 2022.3 (not .4; there's {probably} a bug that interferes with our Git > Bitbucket workflow) soon, after the dust settles from our current quarterly release madness.In the meantime, here is a "duck season! wabbit season!" fight going on about spaces in self-closing tags. 2022 puts them in: <br /> and 2020 takes them out: <br/>Is it definitely due to running different versions of the app, or is there a settings file somewhere that we could tweak? Thank you for your attention to this silly but still mildly annoying issue.

Are JQuery and Bootstrap part of RH 2022 and can be used in topics?

Hello. I would like to ask a question about versions in Robohelp. I am using robohelp in our company to write manuals. We have integrated SharePoint for versioning into the Robohelp. The idea is that when i generate final PDF or HTML5 doc i want to have there some variable which will show actual version of the document. Problem is that this version i have to get from sharepoint. I have python script for that, but i have no idea how to get obtained data to Robohelp. I tried to use Scripts but with no results. Any idea how to do it?  Thanks.

Hi RoboHelp Community, I’ve encountered an issue with table styles displaying inconsistently between Mac and Windows systems. Specifically, the styles I applied to tables in my RoboHelp project render as expected on Windows, but when viewed on a Mac, the styles don’t appear at all. Has anyone else run into this problem? I’m wondering if this could be due to CSS compatibility differences or if there’s a known workaround or best practice to ensure consistent styling across both platforms. I’d appreciate any tips, suggestions, or solutions you might have! Thanks in advance for your help.
