Change toc link in generated help?

Is it possible to change a link in the TOC after it has been generated? I edited all the files I thought were relevant but the change I wanted did not occur. I modified whlstt0, whlstt1, and whdata0.xml ... all of which contained the link I wanted to modify. I don't have the original source files right now and just need to make a quick change.
Thanks for any help!

Did you try clearing the browser's cache and history? I think I'd try that.

Problem linking to PDF file from generated help

I am using RoboHelp HTML, Version 7.02 to create WebHelp, and
I cannot open a PDF file that I linked to some text in a topic. (I
created a PDF file that contains all of the help system's topics so
users can print them all.)
I can open the PDF file just fine when I preview the topic,
but I cannot open the PDF file from the generated help system. (I
set up the link to open in a new window.) When I click the link for
the PDF file, nothing happens, not even an error message. If I
right-click the link and select Properties from the menu, the
Properties dialog box shows the following path to the file:
file:///C:/Users/Myname/Documents/My%20RoboHelp%20Projects/project%20folder%20
name/!SSL!/WebHelp/print_all_help_topics.pdf
To create the link, I first copied the PDF file into my
project folder, Then I right-clicked the Baggage Files folder and
selected New>Baggage File, and clicked Open to add the file to
my Baggage Files folder. Then I dragged the file name from the
Baggage Files folder onto the selected text in my topic, saved all
and generated the WebHelp.
Does anyone have any ideas how I can fix this problem?
Thanks!

Hi Rick.
Yes, mark of the web is selected. I just turned that option
off and re-generated and the PDF opens just fine, but of course,
I'm getting the Internet Explorer message that my browser is trying
to restrict the webpage from running ActiveX controls ... I was
using mark of the web so that my customer's users won't get this
message, although I don't know what ActiveX controls my help system
would be running. I'm just hoping that my customer doesn't balk at
this message appearing. Is turning off mark of the web is my only
choice for getting the link to work?
Thanks for your help and your welcome message. In case you
can't tell, I'm a newbie to RoboHelp. BTW, your website was
invaluable in helping me to create the link to begin with. Thank
you!

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.

Toc Links randomly not working

Robohelp HTML 9.0.2.271
Word 2010 - documents hosted on SharePoint 2007
Windows 7 OS
Published in a merged Help project
Each time i generate a project one or more of the toc links do not expand when clicked.
The links which dont work change randomly.
Aboslutely no idea why this happens. Each of them have worked at some time or other but often not all completely.
I have spent the last two days generating and regenrating a project with tow linked word documents and each time the same issue recurs.
Any ideas how to resolve this ?
No errors show in the Errors list

I am wondering if those TOC items are in your main TOC and you have updated the document. That could break them.
Could changes in the document be the answer?
Do you have this problem before you put the output on Sharepoint?
Are you generating locally and then publishing to Sharepoint or generating directly to Sharepoint?

Changing a link in welcome page

Hi,
I'd like to change one link in the welcome page (not in the left hand menu). For example changing the BBPSC01for BBPSC03 or BBPSC02.
I can't see nothing in the roles about, it is neccesary to modify the template??
I'm running a SRM 5 with integrated ITS,
Does anybody know how I can achieve this.

Hi

Please read this carefully.
Define Roles
Check whether the roles delivered by SAP meet your requirements. If not, you can create new roles and assign transactions to them. We recommend that you copy standard roles and tailor them to your requirements.
All users assigned to a respective role are then allowed to carry out the transactions. If required, you can refine the authorization check on the tab page Authorizations.
Note: You do not assign the users in this step. On creation the composite roles are automatically assigned to the users. You can change the roles using the Web function Manage Users.
Standard settings
SAP supplies the following single roles:
SAP_EC_BBP_EMPLOYEE (for employees)
SAP_EC_BBP_PLANNER (for component planners)
SAP_EC_BBP_PURCHASER (for purchasers)
SAP_EC_BBP_OP_PURCHASER (for operational purchasers)
SAP_EC_BBP_ST_PURCHASER (for strategic purchasers)
SAP_EC_BBP_MANAGER (for managers)
SAP_EC_BBP_BIDDER (for bidders working with bid invitations)
SAP_EC_BBP_VENDOR (for vendors and service providers)
SAP_EC_BBP_RECIPIENT (for the central goods recipient)
SAP_EC_BBP_ADMINISTRATOR (for system administrators)
SAP_EC_BBP_COMPANY_ADMIN (for the company administrator in an Exchange environment)
SAP_EC_BBP_SECRETARY (for the purchasing assistants)
SAP_EC_BBP_ACCOUNTANT (for accountants)
SAP_EC_BBP_CONTENT_MANAGER (for managers of the SAP Content Workbench)
SAP_EC_BBP_CREATEUSER (to request a user for initial logon)
SAP_EC_BBP_CREATEVENDOR (to request a user for initial logon)
/CCM/CATALOG_MANAGER (for catalog managers - SAP Catalog Content Management)
/CCM/CATALOG_APPROVER (for content approvers - SAP Catalog Content Management)
SAP_EC_SUS_ADMIN_PURCHASER (for purchasing administrators - SAP Supplier Self-Services)
SAP_EC_SUS_BIDDER (for bidders - SAP Supplier Self-Services)
SAP_EC_SUS_DISPATCHER (for dispatchers - SAP Supplier Self-Services)
SAP_EC_SUS_INVOICER (for invoicers - SAP Supplier Self-Services)
SAP_EC_SUS_ORDER_PROCESSOR (for order processors - SAP Supplier Self-Services)
SAP_EC_SUS_MANAGER (for managers - SAP Supplier Self-Services)
SAP_EC_SUS_SERVICE_AGENT (for service agents - SAP Supplier Self-Services)
Note: Information about using SAP Catalog Content Management is available at the end of this document.
Note: Information about single SUS roles is available at the end of this document.
SAP delivers the following composite roles:
SAP_BBP_STAL_EMPLOYEE (for employees)
SAP_BBP_STAL_PLANNER (for component planners)
SAP_BBP_STAL_PURCHASER (for purchasers)
SAP_BBP_STAL_STRAT_PURCHASER (for the strategic purchasers)

SAP_BBP_STAL_ACCOUNTANT (for accountants)
SAP_BBP_STAL_PURCHASE_MANAGER (for the purchasing manager)
SAP_BBP_STAL_CONTENT_MANAGER (for the managers of catalog content)
Activities
If you want to create your own composite role, proceed as follows:
1. Enter a name for the composite role and create it.
2. Enter a description and save it.
3. On the Roles tab page, enter the relevant single roles that you want to assign to the composite role.
4. On the Menu tab page, import the transactions of the single roles and structure the menu as desired.
5. Save your entries.
Note: Before a user logs on for the first time, you must generate the authorization profile for the single roles on the Authorizations tab page and execute the user synchronization onthe User tab page.
Note: For the roles purchaser, operational purchaser, and purchasing assistant, the Extended Form user interface is available as standard in the shopping cart. This enables temporary staff to be ordered, for example.
For the other roles, the Wizard (BBPSC 02) user interface is available as standard in the shopping cart. You can replace this with the Simplified Form (BBPSC 03) user interface.
If you want to replace BBPSC 02 with BBPSC 03, proceed as follows:
1. Call transaction PFCG.
2. Select composite role SAP_BBP_STAL_EMPLOYEE.
3. Switch to change mode.
4. Choose the Menu tab page.
5. Import the menu.
6. Choose Merge.
The folder for newly-added menu options appears in the menu.
7. Select BBPSC03.
8. Move the entry to the relevant place.
9. Delete BBPSC02.
10. Delete the folder for newly-added menu options.
11. Save your entries.
12. Choose the User tab page.
13. Execute the user synchronization.
If you want to extend single roles, proceed as follows:
1. Call transaction PFCG.
2. Select the single role, for example, SAP_EC_BBP_EMPLOYEE.
3. Switch to change mode.
4. Choose the Menu tab page.
5. Choose Assign transaction.
6. Enter the transaction code (such as BBPSC01).
7. Choose Assign transactions.
8. Move the entry to the relevant place.
9. Delete any other transactions.
10. Save your entries.
11. Choose the Authorizations tab page.
12. Choose Change authorizations.
13. Save your entries and generate the new authorization profile.
14. Choose the User tab page.
15. Execute a complete user synchronization.
16. Perform steps 1-13 of the section above (replace BBPSC03).
Note: In transaction PFCG, you can decide whether the side menu for composite roles should be shown or hiddenas default. Select thePersonalization tab page, the key is SPERS_BROWSERMENU. The side menu will only be hidden, however, if this is set in all the composite roles assigned to the user. The status that is selected and saved by the user overrides the default setting.
Choose Save.
Hope this will help.
Please reward suitable points.

IChat Link in iWeb, HELP!!!

Hi is it possible to have a iChat link ( example: ichat://[email protected] ) in iWeb 09' ..? Everytime I use the inspector to change the "Link". it goes back to a http: link , and won't allow the change etc.
PLEASE HELP. Thanks in advance!
Message was edited by: M.Mercer

It should work fine once you publish it online.
Keep in mind you are inserting HTML code directly into your site. That means that the other tools within iWeb (like text controls) have no power here.
You can modify the appearance of the text generated by the code by using more code:

The "font face=" is where you specify the name of the font you want. The "size=" is where you specify the point size of the font. The "color=" is where you specify the color of the text.
Again, make sure you are copying the code starting with the "<a href" and ending with "/a>"

Can't change a linked image???

I have a lot left to learn in Dreamweaver but linking images I've done alot, I hope someone can help me on what I'm doing wrong. The linked image won't let me change links. Here is the home page http://kmmcement.com/. The bottom right picture under click to view slideshow is linked to slideshow.html. I changed the slideshow and named the new one ss.html. When I right click the picture and choose Change Link and select my new ss.html, it does not change it in the code. I tried manually to change it in the code and publish, but the new page won't load up (although when I preview the page, it loads fine.)
The only thing I've done differently on this site is that I finally learned to get the bottom navigation links to work without looking jumpy and jittery when clicking or rolling over them, by going to Modify - Page Properties and choosing links and set them up there (basic that I should've learned awhile ago). I didn't do the navigation bar until last, so would that have anything to do with not being able to change the link? If so, then how can I change it to where only the bottom navigation has it's own style as I'm sure there's going to be alot more links I'm going to be adding.
Thank you in advance for any help. (By the way, I'm using Dreamweaver CS3)

Starting on line 215 of your code, you have this:
<tr>
<td height="338"><div align="center">
CLICK TO VIEW SLIDESHOW!
<a href="slideshow.html"><img
src="images/slideshowpic.JPG" width="347" height="223"
border="0"/></a>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
Try changing it to this:
<tr>
<td height="338" style="text-align:center">
<a href="ss.html">CLICK TO VIEW SLIDESHOW!</a>
<a href="ss.html"><img src="images/slideshowpic.JPG" width="347" height="223" border="0"/></a>
</td>
</tr>
Save. Upload page to server along with ss.html page. Hit refresh in your browser.

Save as PDF option in MS Word 2007 does not create TOC links

Hello All,
i am using Microsoft Office Word 2007 to create How to Guides, Installation Manuals, and other technical documents. I send these documents to customer in PDF format.
When i use "Save as PDF" option of MS Word 2007 to generate PDF file, it creates the PDF but without TOC links. TOC entries are there but hyperlinks are missing.
Can anyone please provide me a solution to work around this issue.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
It seems that you are trying to insert a Hyperlink in you document which you want to save as a PDF file from Word 2007,
but when you open the PDF file there is no such a Hyperlink but only the website address.
If there is anything misunderstanding, please feel free to let me know.
Try this:
When you have inputted the website address, enter an “Space” or “Enter” behind it to make it
turn into a Hyperlink before you save the document into PDF file.
Sincerely,
Fangfang

Is there a good way to automate changing existing links to external PDFs to instead be to PDF attachments with same names?

Greetings!
Can anyone tell me a good way to automate changing a "main" PDF's existing hyperlinks to external PDFs to instead be links to PDF attachments to the main PDF (the attached PDFs to have the same filenames as the external PDFs) ?
Format of current link in main PDF:
Go to a page in another document
File: C:\\path\filename.pdf
Destination name: P:1
When link is manually changed to link to a PDF that has been attached to the main PDF:
Go to a page in another document
File: PDF attachment
Page: 1
Zoom level: Fit page
The new PDF link does not list the PDF attachment filename in the link.
The main PDF (the one that has the links that I would like to automatically change) is generated with the hyperlinks to other PDFs from Adobe FrameMaker 11. In FrameMaker11, we added special marker text "openpage filename.pdf:1" that is "automatically" changed to be hyperlinks to external PDFs when the main PDF is created (postscript file is processed) by Adobe Acrobat Pro 11.
My first choice is to be able to change the format of the special marker text in Adobe FrameMaker source file, but I have not found way to specify a link to be to a PDF attachment with a certain filename.
However, I would also really like the option of running a batch file on a main PDF to change the links there.
Has anyone tried using that Adobe ExtendScript ToolKit CS6 to do this? That is, a script that could automatically modify the hyperlinks in a PDF to link to PDF attachments rather than external PDFs, or else modify the unprocessed links while they are still in Postscript file format, or else modify the marker text in FrameMaker to instead of creating a link to a PDF in the same directory as the main PDF being processed, to create a link to a PDF attachment files?
Thank you,
Judith Wallace
[email protected]

FrameMaker's Hypertext feature has no ability to "link" to an attachment on/in a target PDF.
PDFs sourced from FM can have named destinations set in the FM authoring files such that a link from file01.fm to the specified named destination in file01.fm will be functional in the PDFs created from the FM files.
Then, of course, there's the dynamics possible by use o FM Books. But that's the grist for the mills at the FM user-2-user forum.
RE: Scripting - PDF scripting is via Acrobat JavaScript. That something still of and by Adobe although it may migrate to an ISO Standard (or be rolled up in a future ISO 32000).
So, to the point - look to Acrobat JavaScript for scripting.
Be well...

Word TOC Links are shifting

This is a new one for me. I am using Word 2003 and Acrobat 8.1.3.
I have a 500 page Word document that is a Master Document containing 13 subdocuments. When I PDF it using PDFMaker, all of the TOC entries are hyperlinked, but this is where it gets strange. Up until around page 113, the hyperlinks work perfectly. After that, they start to shift so that when you click on an entry that should jump to the top of page 114, it jumps to the middle of page 115. It continues to get worse from there, so by the end of the document, the link jumps to a point about 7 pages beyond the point it should.
If you use Ctrl + Click in Word, the entries are all fine, so it appears to be something that is happening during the conversion.
Has anyone seen anything like this before?
Thanks.
Rob

Hello everyone,
I am facing the very same problem (Word TOC links are shifting in the PDF file, the longer the file, the greater the shift - first only by one page and then growing up to a shift of 4-5 pages with a 150p document). Xrefs and other links within the file are not affected, only the TOC.
I use Adobe Standard 8.1.6 (only updated from 8.1.1 yesterday, installing the updates chronologically). Word is 2003 with XP (SP3).
I have gone over the Acrobat settings a zillion times, everything is as it used to be about six months ago when PDFing was still working fine.
Also I followed all sorts of advice such as eliminating any Standard.dots on the machine but one, setting to the Adobe PDF printer before updating the TOC, tags are off, reflow is off, a.s.o.
Yesterday, a closer look at the TOC links using the Acrobat link tool revealed that the links on the page numbers work just fine, only the links on the paragraph titles and paragraph numbers are off target. Created in one and the same PDF and from one and the same Word file.
I cannot remember when the problem started because I mostly tested the links in the TOC from the page numbers and not from the titles... So I may have published many PDF files with this error. What I do remember is that a couple of months ago, when Acrobat converted its first Word file of the day, it started to convert and then broke off without displaying any message. Starting the conversion again produced the PDF file. This is the only change I ever noticed and it persists until today.
Funny thing is, I have another identical Acrobat installation on a different PC which was installed at the same time but is not used very much and is not connected to the network. It has not been updated from 8.1.1 and everything works fine on that machine. Acrobat (or Word?) do not "misbehave".
Anyway, so far I sat here for hours changing the incorrect links (the PC with the correct Acrobat outcome is not available to me all the time) using the link tool and today I found a solution which is considerably faster and less cumbersome: I simply delete all the links on the text and the paragraph numbers and then drag the left border of the page number link boxes all the way across the text and the paragraph numbers to the left. The TOC then has links that cover the entire line, saving the trouble of editing each one of them.
It's nothing but a workaround and does not solve the problem but I thought I'd share...

Changing Sitewide Links in DW CS3

Hello
I am working for an client to help update their website and have been working on their Dreamweaver 2007 system.
(I'm fairley new to DW, but have goLive experience on MACOSX)
they have an older DW CS3 running on Windows XP. Using Firefox current.
this issue may be common to other versions though:
I am trying to update a single 'hotspot' homepage link to redirect to different another page within the site.
This 'hotspot' is a link to a Login page restircted to :members only". We wish to bypass this page and link it to a
Welcome.asp page which is 'all -access".
I assumed the safest (non-destructive) way to do this was to redirect links internally from the hotspot on every page in which it occurs.
After 11 page updatess successfully redirecting this process stopped workingand all pages magically and maddingly reverted to linking
to the Login page in browser.
While i have found and used the DW feature to "change all links" within the site files, I'm contiuing to get the
incorrect (original) page when refreshing cache and checking it using my browser.
Tried it several times and thought the links seems good in Admin side , the online display is not linking correctly.
There are many instances of this site link and each one I've checked seems to point in the correct redirect page location,
but not linking on the online side.
I'd appreciate any clues, workarounds or suggestions to why this is not working.
Do they need to upgrade to CS5 , or is that still going to yield the same problem...seems it might.
Cheers in advance

No TOC links in PDF

I'm not sure where to post this, so here is as good as any
when you're indecisive I hope ;)
The problem I'm having is that I don't have TOC links in the
PDF when outputting from Word using 1-Step RoboPDF (Save as PDF) or
printing to Adobe PDF. I'm sure I'm missing a setting somewhere,
but I can't for the life of me find it...
I have RoboHelp 6 and Word 2003. (I think the 1-Step RoboPDF
was installed from X5... which, of course, has been uninstalled but
I had this problem intermittently with X5)
Any help appreciated, thanks,
Byron

That's a defect (bug) in Adobe(Mac) that has been going on for 15 years and Adobe refuse to admit it and fix it. In Reference to Links.
The only work around is to use iWork's Pages.
The links should be active. Then Create the PDF from there The links should be live.
I've heard you can do the same thing with Preview, But haven't tried. I know Pages will.
Its no wonder that Apple won't allow Flash on the iPad. Besides not fixing Flash issues on the Mac paltform, They have a history of refusing to fix problems with Acrobat on The Mac Platform.

Change Password link is not showing up in MyAccount Page

Change Password link is not showing up in MyAccount Page, eventhough the line
<class name="PasswordPortalSetting"/> is not commented out in DisplayPortalSettings.xml
We are using custom Auth source and not using plumtree Auth source, Is this could be a reason?
Any help is appreciated.

I'm seeing the same thing as Simon, I changed the iOS device name in both places on an iOS device and the name in the Intune console is still "iPhone" which is really unhelpful as I'm sure you can imagine. Is there some other place
that we should be going to rename devices so they are more easily identifiable in the Intune console?
Thanks!

TOC links fail when using book function for interactive pdf output

I have a large print publication consisting of multiple files using the Indesign book function. I have created a Table of Contents in the first document (there are multiple files in this book), but when I save to interactive pdf to create a digital version the TOC links are lost. They only work within the first document.
I have read numerous forums but cannot resolve this issue with the combination of:
1. TOC creation
2. Using Indesign Book Function
3. Multiple documents in the one book
4. Interactive Pdf output required
I look forward to answers???

I am on CC version 9.0 but am updating CC as I type this in the hope this may have some answers?
If you are on CC, you should update your InDesign version to 9.2.1 as it is the latest version. Then you should open the TOC definitions, check it, activate the new add anchor on destiny function and save. Now you should actualize all TOCs.
The TOC functionality has been improved and changed between 9.0 and 9.2. If you update your files accordingly you will suffer less pain.
