Wrong size of the .chm-file

Hi,

we have a problem with the size of the generated chm file, using RH8.

We can set any window size in the 'window properties' - the result is a chm file, which is too small (height and width).

In RH5 which we used before, anything worked as expected.

Are there any hidden options or files, to reset this settings?

Thanks in advance

Set Microsoft HTML help as your default, then create a new window. With that set as the default, you will find the options you require.

The options are there - that is not the problem. But they don't have any effect on the size of the generated chm file.

Sorry, you started by referring to file size but then went onto window size so I thought perhaps that is what you meant.

If you are talking about the size of the file as in MB, I'm not sure why you mentioned window size.

In the wizard to generate the file there is an option to Optimize the file size. If you have tried that, I'm not sure what to suggest. How big a difference from when you generated in X5 compared with RH8.
