Does anyone know if you can add an Outlook .oft file in a RoboHelp topic?

Correct answer Peter Grainge

Thank you. Yes, the objective is to open an email message with content. I currently have RoboHelp 2017.


See Snippets on my site. The Email section has some solutions.

See www.grainge.org for free RoboHelp and Authoring information.

I don't see any reason why you can't link to it or add it as baggage and link to that, but it probably won't behave very well?

EDIT: hit the wrong keys by accident and posted too early

I did a quick test just linking to my outlook file and it asked if I wanted to download or run, I clicked run, and it said there was no program associated with the file type.

What are you trying to achieve?

Thanks, Amebr. I get the same result; however, when I generate an HTML5 layout and move it to my server, the link doesn't work. It says webpage cannot be found.

    Thank you, Peter. That works! I'm new to code, so can you provide a solution for line breaks/paragraph breaks? The body of my email message is condensed all together.
