Converting HTM file to MHT Format

Hello Cindi -

I have not converted/used Microsoft MHTL. We save / submit our generated projects as zip files to extract to the desktop. I provide the launch file name and the entire project is ready to use.

Not sure about WebHelp PRO output (I don't use the Pro version). I would generate your project to your local hard drive (default goes to the RH !SSL! directory) then zip up the generated directory. Have the auditor create a new directory on their desktop, unzip your file into it and launch your start file (ours is called index.htm) - your entire project will be up and running for them.

You could also use a packaging program to make an executable to would create the desktop folder and extract files into it.

Regards,
GEWB

Hello Cindi -

This is a MIME HTML file. From FileExt:

MHT is an archived Web page (Microsoft). When you save a Web page as a Web archive in Internet Explorer, the Web page saves this information in Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension HTML (MHTML) format with a .MHT file extension. All relative links in the Web page are remapped and the embedded content is included in the .MHT file. The absolute references or hyperlinks on the Web page remain unchanged and the .MHT file is viewed using Internet Explorer.

Note: This file type can become infected and should be carefully scanned if someone sends you a file with this extension.

Also see Wikipedia:

Why do you need to convert your source project files to MIME HTML? I could understand the GENERATED WebHelp project being converted for precieved ease of transport or if the auditors only have access to IE, but source files?
