I am trying to import a rather large FM book (1,5M words in 20 big
chapters...) in RoboHelp 8. The FM version is 8, and it is structured.
I can accomplish almost what my requirements are, namely produce
almost clean HTML, and break the large FM fiels up into manageable
topics with human-readable names (based on paratext in FM.)
That all works very nicely, is snappy, and so forth. Except that
cross-references from one chapter to another in the FM book are not
converted to links in the RoboHelp (while inter-chapter
cross-references are.)
The cross-references are resolved in FM; and do work as expected there.
Does anybody know how to proceed? It is a one-time only conversion, as
we will use the RoboHelp project for single-sourcing to various
flavors of HTML help, and we do not intend to produce print anymore.
I have fiddles with both Mif2Go and WebWorks (ePublisher) trial
version, too, but cannot see that they are usefulfor me at this point.
Actually, the RoboHelp import is the easiest conversion I have tried.
Except for thet tiny feature....

This definitely works in FM9/RH8 (TCS2) - I use cross-ref links all over my unstructured FM book of books. Sorry that I can't help you with your problem.
Get ready! An upgraded Adobe Community experience is coming in January.
