What version of FM are you using? Structured or Unstructured? Where are the files located?

Was content changed between the original RH2019 Classic project and the current RH2022 version? If not, then you might try upgrading a copy of the original Classic project straight into RH2022 to test it out. One of the sequential updates may have damaged something that's causing the error. If it still errors out after that, then you definitely need to reach out to the RH folks. The reason I asked about if the sample project was experiencing issues is to determine if there's a more general problem with your installation vs. issues with a specific project.

You need to make your xref to something within the Support.fm document - usually people point at the Heading or Title in it.

Have a look at the source code in the topics - is it cleanly using the <ul> (unordered lists) tag for your bullet points?

Ok, good, that's the last patch version in RH2022. Was this an upgraded RH2019 Classic project that you took to RH2022 or a New UI one that's just been updated each version? By "sample project" I mean the sample projects included in the My RoboHelp Projects folder by RH itself.

What point version of RH are you running? Are you up to date? Is it happening with the sample project?

I believe that because the Adobe Technical Communication Suite (which FM belongs to) isn't part of the Creative Suite, it doesn't get updated in that way. Ping the FM folks to confirm.

Your best bet in contacting anybody in FM support is to see https://helpx.adobe.com/contact/enterprise-support.other.html#framemaker for your Adobe Support options. I'd recommend using the tcssup@adobe.com e-mail address as it reaches a team dedicated to Technical Communication Suite products including FrameMaker.

I've not heard of any way to remove system variables - I guess one workaround would be to code your ones in some way that they all get sorted together at the top of the list?

Nope, no idea - and even if we knew, we couldn't tell anybody about it because of the NDA in the prerelease program.

Are you talking about launching Context Sensistive Help (CSH) in your output? You need all the files and folders that are present in your output folder - deleting any of them will cause it to fail. RH output depends on using JavaScript for it to function.

I've edited your post to put the image into the page instead of as an attachment - that way is harder for people to see what you're describing. I don't have any designer suggestions other than having a developer look at the coding. Perhaps you need to try out other designs to see if the features you're looking for are present in them - that may give some clues as to what to change in your template. Not sure what you mean by "protect from unauthorized access of my help pages?" - RH doesn't do anything around access of the HTML5 it produces - that would have to be a discussion with your website designer and whatever tool they use to enable user access.

You have to add the PDFs into the RH project as baggage files - that way they get copied into the output folder when you generate.

IIRC if you edit a snippet, it opens in its own topic page - you can add or remove lines of headings, etc. provided you keep the HTML clean of styling. That way when you save the snippet and then look at it in the respective topics, it will take on the styling you've told it to use in the span class.

No, I agree that doesn't make much sense - I'd reach out & give the RJ folks a ping - see https://helpx.adobe.com/contact/enterprise-support.other.html#robohelp for your Adobe Support options.

I suspect that the OP has font styling of their <p> tag in the snippet, whereas you have left it plain in the snippet (right idea) & applied the styling outside of it.

Hmm, don't create PDF output so I haven't really looked at that bit - the fact that it appears on a new project, but not on an upgraded one, maybe indicates that if you create a new preset in the migrated project, it might appear. I think I've observed that the RH folks don't like monkeying around with pre-existing settings - they'd rather you create a new one to use whatever new thing they've created.

There should be new options available for the page properties of a PDF page layout templates (such as page size, orientation, layout, background, and footnote) but they are not showing up. Only the stylesheet option is availabe, just as it was in Update 3.
By @NoWeM
What led you to think that there would be these new properties present in the update? I don't recall anybody talking about that...

If it's just started with FM2019, the first thing I would try is to patch FM2019 to the highest version available and see if whatever is causing the crash has already been fixed. Next thing I would try is loading a trial version of FM2022 on a separate machine and testing it with a copy of your content - if that works, the solution is pretty clear - you need to upgrade. If that still doesn't fix it, then I'd ping the FM folks - see https://helpx.adobe.com/contact/enterprise-support.other.html#framemaker for your Adobe Support options. I'd recommend using the tcssup@adobe.com e-mail address as it reaches a team dedicated to Technical Communication Suite products including FrameMaker.
