Hi,

Before I upgraded to RH8 I was able to link from a topic to an imported .pdf. Why can't I do this anymore?

    This topic has been closed for replies.

    It seems if I view the html I can drag the pdf link into the document as a link. Just can't do it in Design.

    Hi there

    Assuming you are talking about establishing links to Baggage files in RoboHelp 8 using drag and drop, you now have to press and hold the Shift key before dragging the Baggage reference to the topic in the Design view.

    Cheers... Rick

    Thank you! I won't mention how intuitive THAT is. LOL. oops...

    Anyway, so now I have my links, however, when I generate webhelp, the links don't work. When I View Selected Item inside the project, the pdf displays. I'm stumped. Any insight?
