#CHM TO PDF SETUP CODE#

I too have been a RoboHelp user for a long while. So while you see it as 'RoboHelp breaking', that's really not the case. And it's also got some security stuff clouding the issues too.

What they are about is a Microsoft format (CHM) and working with an Adobe format (PDF). But note the links I pointed to aren't even about RoboHelp.

I do sense your frustration and to be sure, it *IS* very frustrating when you want something that seems so simple on the surface to 'just work'.

#CHM TO PDF SETUP CODE#

Anybody out there have a solution that doesnt involve a bunch of custom code or external files? How do I tell a customer that I have updated their product to epubs, multiscreen html5 for W8 and devices however, not CHMs- I'm sorry, you will have put those files on a W7 or XP because the pdfs link functionality doesnt work on the new platforms. The beauty of the chm is to have one local file. Furthermore, unlike webhelp, multiscreen, etc. I am pretty frustrated at this point as I have a customer deliverable and not being able to open pdfs in chms is unacceptable. Most of us have an expectation for the product to work as marketed or it is a poor ROE. I think developers/users deserve better functionality and product integrity. It's frustrating to keep patching things in Robohelp that keep breaking and some that never work correctly from the beginning (I have been a user since 1999). I looked at the links you provided and they seem like a lot of workaround and extra code to worry about.
