Hello fellow RH Gurus:

I wanted to check in with you all to see if any of you had knowledge into whether or not we could make an imported PDF file "searchable". That is Robohelp allows you to import pdf files into projects, but once they are imported (during the import process), you must import them as JPEG. Hence, the imported PDF files TEXT is not searchable. Is there any way around this?

I just wanted key words within the PDF file to show up in the search when a user looks for it. Currently, it does not.

Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated!

Best Regards!

The only way to make the content of PDF and other files (e.g. Word files) searchable is to purchase the RoboHelp Server 7 project and output WebHelp Pro.
