SWF Won't Display in RoboHelp Project

Report · Mar 19, 2013

Hi,

I have a RoboHelp 9 HTML project that has a number of SWF files embedded in a number of the pages. The problem is the SWF won't display on the HTML page. The SWF files are published to version 11.x. The HTML pages work fine on my computer but I have Robohelp and Flash Pro installed. When I take it to any other computer in my office, the HTML pages load with no problem but the SWF files will not load onto the pages. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Hi there

You might try adding the SWF files to Baggage and see if that makes a difference. The fact they work for you but not others seems to suggest they cannot be found. Adding to Baggage should correct that issue.

Cheers... Rick

I figured it out. In Flash Pro 5 there's a text type called TLF which I was using instead of regular static text. Anyway, I switched it out and it works fine now. Thanks and cheers to you...Mike

So you are saying that the SWF *WAS* actually displaying but was somehow unable to present the text?

For others that may wonder about what TLF is (as I did) I'll save you the Google step.
