Newbie who needs help creating a master project - RH 10 HTML

Question

Hi everyone,I'm a proposal writer trying to help our company's sole tech writer develop online help for our company's applications. The tech writer gave me some topics and asked me to work with them to set up a master project and test it - she wants that so we do not have to reformat for every help system since they rarely change.The tech writer is out this week, so I tried figuring out what a master project is and how to create one by reading the RH10 user guide. I'm still confused, though. Can someone help me figure out what to do?Thank you!

Hi Angie.To be honest if it can be left until your tech Author gets back, it may be best. it is not that setting up a master project isn't easy. It is. It is just that how you set it up depends a lot on variables. For example what type of output is being generated, If it helps, a master project is just a RoboHelp project that acts as a container for other RoboHelp projects. It normally has no content apart from the references to other projects. However it can have its own content. For a start, my first question would be whether the topics you have should be placed in the master project or another project that is then referenced from the master.
