To help you best I think we need to start this conversation at a different point. Is the purchase of Rh10 your first work with Rh or will it be an upgrade?

If you are just about to start, maybe RoboHelp HTML has advantages over RoboHelp for Word. In RoboHelp HTML you can link to Word documents so you would just carry on producing your content in Word using the templates you currently have. Then you would link to them and each time you generate help, the content gets updated to the latest version of your Word document. That workflow has the advantage that RoboHelp HTML is better supported on these forums and with new features in each upgrade. RoboHelp for Word is very much a legacy product and note the number of posts on that forum.

Hi,

Thank you for the mail.

We want to buy RoboHelp 10 license but before that, want to get hands-on experience in trial version.In trial version only RoboHelp HTML is downloaded and so started working with it.

Regards,

Jaya

Both are in the trial. You have to check RoboHelp for Word to get that installed, it is not a default.

It's not clear from your reply if you are now going to try what I have suggested.

I would be wary of messing with the templates that come with RoboHelp for Word.

Hi,

When I am trying to download the following link is given for download which has RoboHelp 10 not mentioning if it is HTML or for Word.

http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?loc=en_us&product=robohelp

Could you advise me how to proceed from here for downloading RoboHelp for Word?

Regards,

Jaya
