Calling WebHelp topics when source is one large MS-Word document

I imported a large MS-Word document into RoboHelp 9 and then generated it in WebHelp format. If I want to point a user to the exact spot that will answer their question, is there any way I can call a specific part of this help project? The information I have seen online only pertains to calling individual help topics, only.
Thanks for any help you can provide. I appreciate it.

Cross-references should also work. Mine do.
You have to remember when importing a Word document to check the Convert References to hyperlinks check box.
Import Word - On Import window, click Word Document Edit Conversion settings for Word documents Edit button.
Then on the Conversion Settings window, select Other Settings and check the Convert References to hyperlinks check box.
Everything should be referenced properly. Cross-references may not show hyperlink colors or underlines unless you have them set to do that in Robohelp. But if you click the reference it should take you right to the item. I have sets of documents and I have all my documents using this technique and it works.

How can I view a Word document when it tells me that someone else is using the document? This is not true as I am the only one using this Word document which is on my desktop?

I am working on my Ancestry and today when I tried to view my Word document which awaits me on my desktop, I was told that someone else was using it. There is only me to use it, so there couldn't be anyone else. What can I try to open this document again?

Hi,
If you want to move the document to other library immediately, the following workarounds for your reference:
1.Create an Event Receivers for document library and use SPFile.MoveTo
method to move file to the other document library.

2.Create a workflow using SharePoint designer and use Copy List Item Action to copy file, then delete the current document.

When I try and open a word document I received the following message: "You cant open the application Microsoft Word because PoerPC applications are no longer supported". What is up with that?

When I try and open a word document I received the following message: "You cant open the application Microsoft Word because PoerPC applications are no longer supported". What is up with that?

Here is a post that I assembled for a similar question:
Unfortunately you got caught up in the minor miracle of Rosetta. Originally licensed by Apple when it migrated from the PowerPC CPU platform that it had used from the mid-1990's until the Intel CPU platform in 2006, Rosetta allowed Mac users to continue to use their library of PPC software transparently in emulation.
However, Apple's license to continue to use this technology expired with new releases of OS X commencing with Lion (and now Mountain Lion). While educational efforts have been made over the last 6 years, the fact is that Rosetta was SO successful that many users were caught unaware UNTIL they upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion.
Workarounds:
1. If your Mac will support it, restore OS X Snow Leopard;
2. If your Mac will support it, partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard into it and use the "dual-boot" method to choose between your PowerPC software or Lion/Mt. Lion;
3. Upgrade your software to Intel compatible versions, or find alternative software that will open your data files;
3. Install Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) into Parallels:

Full Snow Leopard installation instructions here:
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1365439
NOTE: STEP ONE of the instructions must currently be completed on a Snow Leopard or Lion Mac and the resulting modified Snow Leopard.cdr install file can then be moved over to your Mountain Lion Mac for completion of the remaining steps.
NOTE 2: Computer games with complex, 3D or fast motion graphics make not work well or at all in virtualization.

I have a new MacBook ProI have a new MacBook Pro. When I try to edit a Word document in any way I get a screen that says Word has encountered a problem and needs to close; that I may lose the info. I was working on and I can't recover my work. Help?

After decades, I finally gave up on Microsoft and bought a MacBook Pro. However, for work, I still have to use Microsoft. When I try to edit a Word Document in any way a screen pops up saying Microsoft Word has encountered a problem and needs to close; gives me an option to recover my work and restart Word; when I click that option Word restarts but I alway lose my work. This just started; before it was working fine. Help?

This is a Microsoft problem. Contact them for assistance: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/295539

Are you certain about that? There are many alternatives to Office today. Consider
LibreOffice (donation-supported)
NeoOffice ($10 but older version is free)
OpenOffice (completely free)
In addition to the above I also recommend Apple's Pages ($19.99). All of these options allow you to open, edit, and save Word-formatted documents and spreadsheets. I use OpenOffice and Pages and have been completely Microsoft - free for over a year now. Life is better without Microsoft.

When attempting to "save as" a word document and selecting micrsoft word as the "save as type", it no longer will save it in a word icon document, the icon is just a blank document symbol and thus cannot email this document as before.

Here are my two cents.
The resources defining the file formats which Pages may import or export are stored in the file :
Macintosh HD:Applications:iWork '09:Pages.app:Contents:Info.plist
Assuming that you didn't installed the Developer tools, go to my iDisk (address below)
Download :
Pref Setter.app.zip
Unpack the archive.
Open the file "Info.plist" with Pref Setter.
Open the entry entitled : CFBundleDocumentsTypes
Open the items 9, 10, 11, 12
The normal contents is :
Double check the parameters available for items 9 & 10.
What you get may be linked to some oddity in these resources.

When I try to open a word document it says I do not have enough disk space

When I try to open a word document it says I do not have enough disk space. I have Word 2004 and the document has a doc.x on it.

Mac users using Word 2004 who receive a Word 2008 for Mac, (or Word 2007 for Windows) document, will not be able to read this without having the Open XML Converter installed, which can be downloaded from Microsoft.
Go to this page:
http://www.microsoft.com/mac/downloads.mspx
and click on the right under Most Popular, 'Open XML File Format Converter for Mac 1.0.2'
This opens a window at the bottom of the page. Scroll that to the bottom and click on English.dmg, and it will download for you as a disk image, which can be installed in the usual way.
After installation you can open and read .xml formatted Word 2008 documents in Word 2004.
Update: This link http://support.microsoft.com/kb/976831 takes you to a newer version 1.1.3 (released Nov 10, 2009).

Calling webhelp topic from command line

Hi

How do you call a webhelp topic from the command line? What
syntax would I use?
Thank you

Calling WebHelp Topics using Map IDs didn't work

Hi all,
Can anybody please tell me what is it that I am doing incorrect:
I created a sample web page and added the following to the head section:
<script type="text/javascript" language=JavaScript1.2 src="context-WebHelp/RoboHelp_CSH.js">
In the body, my link looked like this:
<A href='javascript:RH_ShowHelp(0,"C:\Program Files\...\Help\Infolinxweb_help.htm>Mainwindow", HH_Help_Context, 10)'>Help</a>
BTW: We have RH6
Thanks,

Can no longer see my I-photo photos, when trying to insert photo into Word Document.

I had some computer problems and did upgrade to Snow Leopard from Leopard. Using older MacBook Pro.
Now, when I try to insert a picture into a Word Document, I cannot see my photos!
I am working in a word document, I choose "Insert Photo from my files" and when the window comes up so I can choose the photo to insert... when I select the "photos" choice under the Media section on the Left side of the box that comes up, the box to the right is BLANK, both on the top and bottom! None of my photos come up for selection.
This method to choose photos to insert into documents used to work before... now it is not. After selecting "photos" all my photos would appear in the right box, and I would move through my I-photo events to choose my saved photo and insert it. Yes, photos are showing and present in I-photo. They just won't appear for importing.
This is so frustrating, not to mention time comsuming trying to figure out what is going on and how to fix it.
Can anyone help? Please?

Oroilore-
I do not see a way to disable the Picture Frame icon. I looked at Settings-Picture Frame, but none of the options turns it off. The only way I can thinik of, would be if all of your photos had been deleted. If there were no photos, you couldn't have a slide show!
One thing to try is to reset (reboot) your iPad. Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow. The iPad will restart after a couple of minutes. Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes clears up mysterious problems.

How to make a movie in, Pages, that works when it is saved as a Word document?

I made a pages document, then saved it as a Word document, but the 10 second movie I saved in it doesn't play when you start it in Office and use it. I used an MP4, should I try to get something that creates a .WMV since PC doesn't play well with others?

I use Libre Office all the time. It can only "recognize" file formats that you have installed players for.
Install VLC media player (open source, cross platform) and it should be OK.
I have to wonder if your using the best medium for what you want to accomplish. What do you need besides the movie? Maybe you should be creating a web page? Certainly, HTML has far better support for embedding media in a document than anything else. Better as in will work on Windows, Linux, OS X, etc.

Icon issues when embed pdf file into a word document

I recently updated my Acrobat Reader on my laptop with windows 2010 and no every time I need to embed a PDF file into a word document the ICON for the pdf file is not correct, I have to browse manually everytime and it is becoming very time consuming, specially when you need to embed large amount of documents.
This problem it only happens with PDF files, I uninstalled office and the adobe acrobat reader and the problem continues, according to Microsoft support the problem is not word but the Adobe Reader, I do not know what to do since I tried everything on the internet.
It looks to me that somehow when I updated my reader the link between the Reader and Office is broken and office is not correctly linked to the right folder were the PDF reader Icon is located.

You can rebuild the icon database on your windows Vista/Windows 7 system by doing this:
1) rename the hidden file named IconCache.db to IconCache-old.db. this file is hidden so you may need to unhide it. the file is in your profile folder <%userprofile%\AppData\Local> %userprofile% represents the path to user profile folder.
Now Close all folder windows that are currently open and follow these steps.
1. Launch Task Manager using the CTRL+SHIFT+ESC key sequence, or by running taskmgr.exe.
2. In the Process tab, right-click on the Explorer.exe process and select End Process.
3. Click the End process button when asked for confirmation.
4. From the File menu of Task Manager, select New Task (Run…)
5. Type EXPLORER.EXE, and click OK.
Hope this helps and let us know if it worked or not. If this doesn't work then File Association may be another method to try.
Good luck.

Link one solution manager word document into another solution manager HTML

Hi,
I have requirement in solution manager that there are two documents uploaded into solution manager.
1. One word document in one of the project folder
2. HTML page in another folder of same project
I have to set up a hyper link of word document in the HTML web page.
If anyone has gone through this type of requirement, please let me know the details of how did you set up the link between word and HTML document.
Appreciate the early response.
Thanks,
Siva

Go to the properties of the file you want to link your word document to. (attributes icon)
There you will find a button "Generate Document URL (F9)". Clicking this button will buffer the URL into clipboard.
Then you open your Word document in edit mode and paste the URL there.

I get an error message when trying to convert to a word document

i get an error message when trying to convert to a word document

Its with the ExportPDF online service.
This is a snip of what it looks like:

When sending email from my Mac, Word documents do not send correctly. The recipient cannot open them. Any idea why???

I have been dealing with this forever. No matter what format I save a Word document in (.doc .docx or whatever else), the recipient (microsoft user) is still not able to open the file in word. Does anyone have any idea why? It's driving me a little nuts.

Right, I may have misunderstood what you meant by download to desktop. When I click the attachment, I can either "Open with: Text Edit (drop-down menu)" or Save. But save doesn't save to desktop. I can "Open with: Microsoft Word" fine.
When I compose an email, I click attach. I select the file that is in a .docx format. It appears to load to the email correctly, and if I click that extension, it opens correctly in Word out of the pre-sent email. After being sent, it appears in god knows what format and wishes to open from TextEdit.
Was I doing something wrong when you wanted me to download to desktop?

I would like my pdf to be converted as one large image, word can't recognize the symbols correctly

I have a pdf that contains multiple formulas. I would like it to upload as an image instead of trying to convert to text. How can I force it to do this?

Hi jen_n_mat,
You can log in to your ExportPDF account at: https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf
To convert PDF file to an image, click on 'Select PDF File To Export' -> 'Choose Files From My Computer'
Select the desire file you want to convert then select the file format to 'Image' from 'Export Format' drop down list.
Click on 'Export To JPG'.
Regards,
Florence
