What's the latest Robohelp version which can export to Winhelp 4 .HLP ?

Hello.

We've been working with Robohelp X5 for 'a while' now, and due to some issues with 'latest' Word versions (I think any Office after 2000 is giving us issues), so  we want to renew our license to the latest version possible.

We've been trying Robohelp 9 (it has Robohelp for Word and it can export to Winhelp 4 (.hlp) format).

We also tried Robohelp 11 and didn't find nor Robohelp for Word nor Winhelp 4 export possibilities.

What about Robohelp 10? Does anybody know if it has Robohelp for Word AND can it export to Winhelp 4?

Thank you in advance.

    RoboHelp 10 is the last version to include RoboHelp for Word. - Not sure

    about Winhelp 4 though as I never use RoboHelp for word.

    Kind regards,

    RoboHelp for Word 10 has the same outputs as Rh9. If you have a licence for 9, I would be looking deeper into what changes there were. Probably only support for 2010.

    If you do want to upgrade to that, you will have to find a software vendor with boxed sets as Adobe are no longer shipping Rh for Word 10.

    Better still, given Windows support for the HLP format, isn't it time to move on?

    Just to clarify: RoboHelp for Word is no longer available in RoboHelp

    11. - Unfortunately, I can't help you with the winhelp question.

    Kind regards,
