Cant' upload PDF in Robohelp 6

Question

I have uninstalled and then reinstalled Robohelp 6 and I
still am not able to upload a PDF file. Several months ago I was
able to upload them, it took quite a while, but now I it just keeps
trying. I let it sit there for 30 min and it never completed. - Any
one have a fix for this?

Answer 1

I have uninstalled and re-installed the software again. I was
able to import a pdf (test 164K file) into a test project as
individual topics and into your project as a combined topic. So,
1-importing works, 2-your project is ok.
I’m not sure if this is normal or abnormal behavior but
here is what I have found.
It did take about 30 seconds for it to process that file. So
a file that is 200 times its size as the one you were trying to
import could reasonably be estimated to take 6000 seconds (1 hour
and 40 minutes).
I noticed that the Robohelp program was grabbing a decent
amount of memory during the import (about 88MB) but it was only
hitting the processor for about 4%. I have tried this with the
native affinity hitting both cores on the processor and running it
through one core solely and the other with no improvements.
Anyone have any clue if this is normal or not?
