Does Adobe RoboSource Control provide a facility of access restriction on the WebHelp output?

I need to publish a WebHelp document that can be accessed only by a specific group of people.
In order to ensure that only the specificied group of people access the document, can it be restricted by aligning it with individual user ID/pwd? Is there any facility provided by RoboHelp/RoboSource Control to restrict access through individual User ID / password?
- If yes, how can it be implemented?
- If not, is there any other alternative?
Some direction would be really helpful. Thank you!

RoboSourceControl is just a source control application. It certainly does not have the sort of functionality you require. Neither would any source control application. You have some options though.
Publish your WebHelp to location that can be secured to a specific group of people. Your IT people can help here.
Purchase a RoboHelp Server licence and output WebHelp Pro rather than WebHelp. RoboHelp Server allows you to restrict access to users with a userid / password.
If PDF is an option, output to that and secure the PDF file to those with the supplied password.

Why does Adobe refuse to provide the latest version of Camera Raw (like my Canon 6d) for CS5?

Why does Adobe refuse to provide the latest version of Camera Raw (like my Canon 6d) that could be supported in Photoshop CS5 or earlier? Its like Adobe saying you want a Camera Raw for you Camera then buy CS6 which is insulting to your customers.

Adobe's policy to to provide free updates (not upgrades) for currently shipping software, which means the current Photoshop CS6 and Camera Raw 7.x. Development on Photoshop CS5.x and Camera Raw 6.x stopped when Photoshop CS6 started shipping. While it may appear on the surface that's it's a ploy to force users to upgrade to the most recent version when getting a new camera, it's really a policy based on the technical issues of trying to provide backwards compatible software for application that are no longer being developed.
Camera Raw is a plug-in for Photoshop and as such, it is dependent on the Photoshop SDK in which it loads...it's also dependent upon the system level APIs being used by the applications. Could Adobe keep upgrading old software? Yes, but it would be a technical nightmare.
Your alternative is simply use the free DNG Converter if you want to use new cameras that weren't in existence when your old software was developed. Pretty simple really and it's not designed as insult to Adobe customers...it's actually an affirmative program to make sure current users are provided support.
The problem of new camera support for old software is really a problem caused primarily by the camera companies spawning off new cameras whose file formats are undocumented and proprietary. If the camera makers adopted a standard file format that could be opened in standard applications (kinda like DNG) then tis problem would be mitigated. You really should place the lion's share of the problem at the feet of the camera companies...

Does Adobe have a place for members to access graphics?

I just joined and downloaded CS14. Where do I access clipart? Does Adobe have a place for members to access graphics?

I think you probably mean that you are now a member of Creative Cloud and that you've just downloaded InDesign CC 2014. (If I'm incorrect, just let me know.)
There is a new feature just introduced the past couple days and it's called Creative Cloud Marketplace. Not much has been written about it, but here's the Help file and a posting by Terry White:
Creative Cloud Help | Creative Cloud Market
Adobe Creative Cloud Market is Here
The vector files are stored as SVG files which InDesign cannot place. However, you can open them in Illustrator CC and save them as Illustrator AI files which can be placed into InDesign or copied to InDesign.
Good luck.

Hi rachel.stewart,
In order to password protect your files, you need Adobe Acrobat. Please refer to the links mentioned below:

Why does Adobe Manager crash when I create to download programs from the creative cloud?

I just signed on to Adobe Creative Cloud and trying to download apps to my desktop and Adobe Manager crashed everytime. I am running on OSX 10.9.4. Any suggestions?

I would click the download button from the apps page. The Adobe Apps Manager would launch then crash. I didn't know what else to do, so I noticed I didn't have the latest Adobe App Manager.
After I updated my AAM, the download worked fine. Thanks you for looking into it.

Errors when try to start RoboSource Control 3.1

I was just issued a new desktop PC (Windows 7 SP1, 64 bit) at work. I have had to reload all of my software including AdobeTCS 3.5.
After installing TCS 3.5, Adobe RoboSource Control 3.1 is a separate folder under the main Adobe folder (Program FIles (x86) > Adobe > Adobe RoboSource Control 3.1). So it should be "installed."
I have also downloaded the RoboSource 64 bit fix and copied it into the Adobe RoboSource Control 3.1 folder (renaming the original version of the file).
Note that RoboSource Control Server is installed on a separate server machine.
When I click RSO3Explore.exe to start the app, I first get a message that the Publisher cannot be verified (I select Run), and then I get the message that "RSO3 Explorer Component has stopped Working" and then "RSO3 Middle Tier Server Component has stopped Working". I am forced to close the program.
In Task Manager > Processes, I have 2 instances of "RSO3MiddleTierService.exe *32" running.
In Task Manager > Services, I have no instance of "RSO3MiddleTierService.exe *32" running.
When I run services.msc, I see no instance of any RoboHelp service running.
I don't know what's wrong..... has anyone else using RoboSource Control seen this problem?
Thanks!

Problem resolved by reinstall.

Errors installing RoboSource Control

I cannot successfully install RoboSource Control 3.1, which
is part of the Technical Communications Suite that I recently
bought. I am trying to install it on a computer running
(factory-installed) Vista. I get error messages that state that
NGMenu.dll and DirBkgndExt.dll "failed to register." HRESULT
2147024891. I previously had downloaded the trial version of
RoboHelp, which included the trial version of RoboSource Control. I
uninstalled both prior to installing the Tech Comm Suite.
I have opened a support case with Adobe and have talked
numerous times with their technical support staff. We have tried
many different things that they have suggested, but thus far have
not solved the problem. I have tried installing in simplified mode,
installing in selective startup mode, and manually registering the
dlls (with Regsvr32). My system has no viruses. I made sure to run
my virus checking software prior to installation. I've run the
error checking tool to make sure that there are no damaged sectors
or fragmented files on my hard disk. That looks fine. I've tried
uninstalling and re-installing the entire Tech Comm pkg, RoboHelp
and RHSource Control together, and RHSource Control by itself. At
the instruction of Adobe Tech support, I deleted the RoboHelp,
RoboHTML, and RoboSource Control keys in the registry under
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Adobe" and
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Adobe."
I checked permissions on my user account -- the one I use to
log on to my operating system with. This account has administrator
permissions. I am the only person using my computer, and I am using
this user account when I install the RHSource Control and Tech Comm
Suite. My user account also has full read/write permissions in the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE branch of the Registry.
At Adobe Tech Support's request, I also tried disabling
Windows Vista User Access Control.
None of these things have worked, and unless Adobe's Tech
Support provides other ideas, I don't know how to solve this
problem.
Has anyone had a similar problem, or does anyone have any
ideas about what may be causing this problem. I would be very
grateful for any information you can provide!

You do not have to uninstall the previous version of
RoboSource Control first.

RoboSource Control

Does anyone know if you can load RoboSource Control 3 onto an
Oracle DB versus A SQL DB?

There is a
technote
about RoboSource Control 4 dated February 2007. It indicates
the following.
quote:
RoboSource Control only supports Microsoft. SQL. There are no
immediate plans to implement support for other database servers,
such as Oracle, DB2, Sybase, Infomix, or FileMaker.
Even though the statement is about RoboSource Control 4, I
imagine that the statement applies to earlier versions, as well.
You can request support for other DB platforms in future
releases of RoboSource Control by using
Adobe's
Wish Form.

Does Adobe Export PDF include OCR ?

does Adobe Export PDF provide OCR ?

Yes. Adobe ExportPDF uses optical character recognition (OCR) technology to turn scanned images into digital text, which is then saved as editable text in your new Word document. You may also select the language you would like ExportPDF to recognize text in--English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, or Japanese.

Anybody tried RoboSource Control 3 yet?

I just read the description of the new RoboSource Control 3
and am encouraged by what I read. Moving to SQL sounds great.
If anyone has any comments or - especially - experience with
RSC 3, I'd sure like to hear about it!
Thx,
G

Gravenstein didn't specifically mention it, so just in case
either of you have not seen this, there is an article in the Adobe
Developer Center by Matthew Ellison that gives a very in depth
"getting started" approach to RoboSource 3.
Getting
started with RoboSource Control 3 in RoboHelp 6
SQL Server (or the free SQL Express) addresses the previous
problems with the old RSC's default Access database and performance
is greatly improved.
Also from Matthew's article: "RoboHelp 6 also integrates with
Microsoft Visual SourceSafe or any other third-party version
control package that supports the Microsoft Common Source Code
Control API (sometimes called the SCC API). Thus, you may be able
to use your existing version control package with RoboHelp 6 as an
alternative to installing RoboSource Control 3 Server."

Does Adobe Care Anymore?

Now that Quark XPress is all but dead (yay!), and there's no other comparable page-layout program, does Adobe really care about their customers?
I'm prompted to pose that question since the introduction of InDesign CC and CC2014. I've been using Adobe products for years: PageMaker 3 through 7, Photoshop 2 through CS6, and then InDesign 1 through CC2014. I've always loved Adobe products and can't live without them, UNTIL the CC version came out. Even after a couple of updates, it's still filled with annoying bugs, a lot of UI inconsistencies, it's incredibly slow to do all sorts of things at times, and crashes nearly as much as Quark XPress used to.
These problems occur on dozens of computers at my workplace with different versions of OSX as well as three computers I use in my home office as a freelancer. I only use CC when I absolutely have to (generally when I take work home over the weekend), but all my freelance work remains in CS6, which is still the most rock-solid version of InDesign ever.
For the first time I'm having to use an Adobe product that I honestly don't enjoy. Sad.

I was going to stay out of this silly conversation...
Now that Quark XPress is all but dead (yay!), and there's no other comparable page-layout program, does Adobe really care about their customers?
Whether ya like the application, have had issues with it, or simple hate it/the company for whatever reason, if you believe as your rhetorical question implies that Adobe doesn't care, shouldn't you root for Q to survive and maybe even prosper for the sake of competition? To keep the honest, honest. To encourage innovation? Whatever. I use both and more.
I think Adobe wants to survive and thrive. While desktop applications may only be a part of its business revenue, it is a decent part of it. Adobe doesn't want people to abandon ship. Regardless of how you, me or the man in the moon would make business choices "if we were in charge," Adobe gets to make its own for better or worse. Some of those choices are definitely not the ones I would make...but neither are choices made by my elected officials. Or my wife or children over certain matters. But none of them ask my advice nor would take it anyway. Which is why they don;t ask I suppose.
As for CC itself? CC 2014 is definitely a productivity boost here. Makes my perpetual license CS6 seem like it's a pig on when running on my laptop. On the desktop there is less a difference but there is still a difference, especially noticeable when I am bringing in large chunks of XML. CC is just plain quicker at it. But none of the 3 versions of ID crash or freeze hardly ever here. (No more or less than does any version of Q, either.) Happens once in a blue moon and it is most often when I am running resources low, too many applications running for a too long a period of time without ever shutting down and restarting the computers.
Ah well. First cup of Joe is finished. Time to do something positive with the day.

Adobe reader control kills key events

I am using visual studio express 2013 on Win7 professional (x64) to write a private c# form application.
Adobe reader is installed and added to my project.
The control shows a pdf, wounderful.
But at the moment, my form has the adobe reader control, no key events where triggered.
Without the control: all works fine.
I record a video to show my problem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0Vo2p2jz9M
Is there a solution or workaround to give the key events to my form?
Are more information needed?
Thanks a lot.

Check if you have full access to
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AcroExch.FDFDoc and sub keys,
Disable any antivirus or backup applications while installing Reader.

Creating TOC and RoboSource Control

We are two users working on the same project in RoboHelp and
using RoboSource Control. We are having problems working on the TOC
- can we both be working on it or should only one person work on
it. It's creating errors every time the project is checked in and
out - books disappear from the TOC and duplicate files are
created.

Hi Leapy,
Only one person should work on the TOC (.HHC) at a time. RH
Source control should stop you both having the TOC checked out at
the same time?
Or are you having problems checking the TOC in and out and
updating it at different times? If so, what errors are being
displayed.
Kind Regards
Craig

Access restriction to com.adobe.flexbuilder.codemodel library

I have Flash Builder 4 Standard installed in Eclipse 3.6.
I am writing an Eclipse plugin where I need to access the Flex project properties so I do something like this:
    import com.adobe.flexbuilder.codemodel.common.CMFactory;
    import com.adobe.flexbuilder.codemodel.project.*;
    IProject flexProject = CMFactory.getManager().getProjectFor(myEclipseProject);
I get this compilation error:
Access restriction: The method getProjectFor(IProject) from the type IEclipseProjectManager is not accessible due to restriction on required library C:\Program Files\Adobe \Adobe Flash Builder 4 Plug-in\eclipse\plugins\com.adobe.flexbuilder.codemodel_4.0.0.272416\codemodel.jar
Notes:
- If I turned it into a Warning I get a runtime exception: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/adobe/flexbuilder/codemodel/project/IEclipseProjectManager
- The plugin com.adobe.flexbuilder.codemodel_4.0.0.272416 is correctly imported in my project.
What does this Access restriction mean?
Why can't I access the Flex SDK for my licensed version of Flash Builder?
Thanks!
--Laurent

Here are steps to reproduce my problem:
1) From Eclipse File > New menu select "Plug-in Project"
2) Enter a project name, leave other options as-is
3) In the "Content" page of the wizard leave all fields as-is (Yes for Generate activator and this plug-in will make contribution to the UI. No for Rich Client application)
4) In the "Templates" page, select "Plug-in with a Popup menu"
5) This generates the project with a NewAction.java class.
Then modify NewAction.java as shown in the code sample below.
1) The "selectionChanged" method sets the _selectedProject variable.
2) The "run" method tries to get the flexProject information from the selected project
=> The import of CMFactory gives me an Access Restriction error "The type CMFactory is not accessible due to restriction on required library D:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4 Plug-in\eclipse\plugins\com.adobe.flexbuilder.codemodel_4.0.0.272416\codemodel.jar
What restriction is this about?
How can one import the flexbuilder libraries in order to get information on the flex projects in this case?
Thanks!
--Laurent
import com.adobe.flexbuilder.codemodel.common.CMFactory;
import com.adobe.flexbuilder.codemodel.project.*;
public class NewAction implements IObjectActionDelegate {
private Shell shell;
private IProject _selectedProject;
public void run(IAction action) {
           // get the flexProject information
   IProject flexProject = CMFactory.getManager().getProjectFor(_selectedProject);
public void selectionChanged(IAction action, ISelection selection) {
          _selectedProject = null;
          boolean enabled = false;
          if (selection instanceof IStructuredSelection) {
            Object obj = ((IStructuredSelection) selection).getFirstElement();
            if (obj instanceof IProject) {
               IProject proj = (IProject)obj;
               if (proj.isOpen()) {
                  enabled = true;
                  _selectedProject = proj;
         action.setEnabled(enabled);

Does Adobe RoboSource Control provide a facility of access restriction on the WebHelp output?
