Changes to lists when structured topics are sent to RoboHelp

In FrameMaker I've created several DITA topics (no specializations, just topics) and included them in a ditamap. I mapped my Frame template styles to my RoboHelp .CSS styles. Then I linked to the ditamap from a RoboHelp HTML project. The topics came over and the style mappings work, but any <li> items with multiple elments are changed. For example, if I have this in my structured FrameMaker file:
<ul>
    <li>
        <p>This is the first list item.</p>
        <p>This is additional information about the first list item.</p>
    </li>
    <li>This is the second list item.</li>
    <li>This is the third list item.</li>
</ul>
I get this in my RoboHelp project:
<ul>
    <li>
        <p>This is the first list item.</p>
    </li>
</ul>
<p>This is additional information about the first list item.</p>
    <li>This is the secton list item.</li>
</ul>

Oops -- somehow posted this too soon. This structured Frame/XML:
<ul>
    <li>
        <p>This is the first list item.</p>
        <p>This is additional information about the first list item.</p>
    </li>
    <li>This is the second list item.</li>
    <li>This is the third list item.</li>
</ul>
Results in this RoboHelp HTML:
<ul>
    <li>
        <p>This is the first list item.</p>
    </li>
</ul>
<p>This is additional information about the first list item.</p>
<ul>
    <li>This is the second list item.</li>
    <li>This is the third list item.</li>
</ul>
Is there any setting I can change to prevent this from happening? Or any other workflow I can consider?
Thanks,
Melanie

  • Still print picking list when ALL items are blocked. Is this possible.

    You know what warehouse people are like. When a delivery has all items blocked the picking list isn't printed, and the warehouse guys are wondering why nothing has printed. Of course a list is printed when there is at least one item that is not blocked on a picking list.
    My question is whether it's possible to print the picking list when all items are blocked?. I would expect no items to be printed for picking, but at the bottom of the report I would expect to see a list of items blocked.
    Anyone?.

  • How to i set up my outbox (for Send Later messages) so that I control when the messages are sent?

    When i compose a message but do not want to send it right away, i click on Send Later and it goes into my Outbox. It remained there until i signed on to my email the next time. Then a message would come up asking me whether i wanted to send unsent messages. This gave me control over when the messages went out.
    Something has changed (computer gremlins at it again) and now the messages go automatically the next time i log on.
    I want my outbox set up as it was before, where i am asked whether i want the messages to go, so that i have that control.
    I have tried to figure out how to do this using this help resource, and going via Tools, Account Settings etc., but haven't been able to find anything indicating how to set my outbox back to asking my permission to send unsent messages.
    Hope someone can help.
    Thank you.

    check these settings:
    Tools > Options > Advanced > Network & Disc Space
    click on 'Offline' button
    When starting up:
    Select: 'always startup online'
    Send unsent messages when going online
    select: 'Ask me'
    Download messages for offline use when going offline?
    suggest 'Ask me'
    click on 'OK' to save offline settings
    click on 'OK' to save changes to Options.
    Create an email addressed to yourself and use the Send Later option to put it in the Outbox.
    Close and reopen Thunderbird.
    You should get the prompt asking to send email.
    If you choose yes then the email in the Outbox will be sent.

  • Multiple issues with See Also controls when importing topics (RoboHelp 9)

    I was wondering if anyone has found workarounds to a very flaky area of RoboHelp...
    Suppose you create several topics A, B, C and D, each with a See Also control in it. Let's suppose all the topics are assigned to the same See Also keyword, say 'Alphabet'. At a later date you create a new project, and need to import your old topics. The following problems arise:
    1) When the topics are imported, RoboHelp does not recreate the 'Alphabet' See Also keyword in the See Also pod. However, the See Also functionality works (sort of) when the project is built. It is not possible to manually add the 'Alphabet' keyword in the See Also pod, because RoboHelp tells you it already exists! The result is an invisible 'Alphabet' See Also keyword, to which you cannot add further topics. As a workaround, I found it is essential to manually add the 'Alphabet' See Also keyword BEFORE importing the topics, and RoboHelp will then correctly assign A, B, C and D to it. However, this can be very awkward if you have hundreds of topics to import and are not sure what See Also keywords the topics reference.
    2) When the topics are imported and the project is built, the See Also control does not work as expected. In RoboHelp, right-clicking the See Also control and choosing See Also [] Properties... reveals that the options you previously set, such as 'Popup menu' or "If no topics are associated with any of the See Also keywords..." have been lost! So all those nasty Topics Found dialogs return when you build the help (instead of popups). If you have a See Also control placed in every topic for consistency, it will never grey out if the topic doesn't belong to any See Also keywords.
    3) When the topics are imported and the project is built, the current topic's name appears in its own list of See Also topics, i.e. it self-references. So for example, if you are viewing topic A and click the See Also link, topics A, B, C and D are listed, instead of just B, C and D. However, when you create new See Also keywords in RoboHelp, assign topics, and build the help, they work correctly and do not show the calling topic's name.
    I spent hours analysing the HTML code of files I am importing, and the code of brand new topics created in RoboHelp, and I can see no obvious differences apart from some -1/0/1 flags in the green Metadata section preceding the SeeAlso code. I even tried changing these flags in my import files to exactly match the flags of new topics that RoboHelp just built, but when importing they still don't work. Clearly RoboHelp stores crucial See Also information elsewhere in the project, but does not make this reliably transportable by adding it to the HTM files that it builds, despite the huge Metadata comment block.
    Adobe needs to put a lot of work into making it possible to cleanly re-use files as content re-use is a very common, and often critical, requirement.

    Hi there
    After reading your post, I come away being unsure about your goal. Is the goal here to simply advise others as to what they may encounter using the See Also functionality? Or is your goal to advise Adobe about what you would like to see changed?
    If your goal is to advise Adobe about what you would like to see changed, you need to visit the Wish Form at www.adobe.com/go/wish and file an official request. Otherwise, it just gives you a nice warm glow that you had your say here. But it won't have much of any effect on the product.
    As far as any workarounds, I might suggest the following. You seem to be regularly creating a new projects and importing content. And if that's the case, I might suggest you create a template project that would already have these things in place so that as you add content, the expected keywords and links and whatnot are already in place. My thought is that this action would ease much of the frustration you are facing.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Hp laserjet pro color mfp will not wake up when print tasks are initiated!

    Is there anyone that can assist me with a HP LaserJet color printer mfp 200 that weill not "WAKEUP" when print tasks are sent to the spooler?

    These settings are for setting up your wireless printer to stay connected to your router, keep wireless devices better connected and make your router secure and hack proof.
    1. Set a static IP in the printer (click here) outside the DHCP range of the router (check your manual). 
        This is for Linksys routers but can be used for all routers.  Verify your DHCP range and change this
        first if needed.  More Wireless Printing help is here.
    2. Verify in the printer that 'Auto Off' is disabled.  Use the Embedded Web Server (EWS) by going to the  
        printers IP address in your browsers address bar, click  Settings Tab/Auto Off.  Or use the Printer
        Assistant, Printer Home Page (EWS). 
    In the router:  (Refer to your router manual for information)
    3. Use a fixed wireless channel like 1, 6 or 11, never 'auto', try channel 1 first then the rest. 
    4. Set router to 20Mhz only, or 145Mbps depending on router. 
    5. Always use WPA2-AES (Personal) encryption, but you can try ‘mixed’ mode. 
    6. Disable WPS and never use it and disable UPnP for the routers security.  Nobody can hack your
        system now and helps with wireless connectivity (if you want to know why, search the web). 
    7. If you have a dual band router (2.4Ghz and 5.0Ghz bands), make sure the SSID’s are NOT the same,
        they must be different for all bands, even for any Guest networks. 
    8. Save all settings.  Power off both, wait 2 mins.  Power on router wait 2 mins. 
    9. Power on printer and verify it reconnects to router. 
    Windows 7/8/8.1   Is Network Discovery on or off?

  • Autonumber formats change after topics are linked across projects

    We are going from Robohelp HTML x5.0.2 to Robohelp HTML 8.0.2.208, so there is obviously a huge learning curve that we are working through.  We generate to WebHelp and merge 15 projects into a published master.  Our users view the output on our intranet using Internet Explorer 7.
    We loved the autonumber format feature in version 8 (particularly the additional bullet styles available and no longer needing to manually renumber steps when something was inserted or deleted), but have run into a problem.
    The autonumber items work fine in the projects and when generated and published into the merged master, but when we need to add a link from a topic in one project to a topic in another project it changes the bullets and numbering.
    Example: 
    We have a topic in Project A that references a topic in Project B (both projects are part of the merged master).
    We insert a link in the Project A topic to the topic in Project B (using Insert Hyperlink - Link To - File).  Everything in both A and B look fine at this point.
    We preview the topic Project A by clicking on "View Selected Item" (eyeglasses) and then click on the link we inserted to validate it works.  This causes the topic in project B to now have stutter-text for bullets and numbers (i.e., what used to say "1. Step" now says "1. 1. Step").  As more links are added to that topic, it adds more bullets and numbers to the linked topic:
    1.     1.     1.     Procedure
    ●       ●       ●       Bullet
    o       o       o       Bullet2
    §        §        §        Bullet3
    □       □       □       Bullet4
    This does not happen when adding links to topics that are in the same project, only when linking to topics that are in another project.
    All of our topics are created directly in RoboHelp; we do not import files from Word, FrameMaker, etc.  Each of our projects has the same style sheet (we created 1 CSS file and copied it into each project so that they were all identical).
    All of our version 8 projects were created from scratch in version 8, and we have been importing our version 5 topics one by one (and deleting the version 5 styles assigned to them), then applying the applicable version 8 style to each line.  We have attempted creating brand new topics in version 8 to make sure no old legacy version 5 code imported from an old project was causing the issue, and it still happens.  We have tried manually cleaning up the HTML code for the topic and it happens again once a cross-project link is added back to that topic.  We also tried the "Convert RoboHelp edited topics to HTML" to try to get around the XHTML restrictions and it still happened to everything that was an autonumber format, so it appears the issue is something with that one of these.  We created styles for each autonumber format we wanted to use (using the options available for Paragraph styles in the Robohelp Style editor), this is a sample of one of them:
    p.Bullet {
                    list-style: rh-list;
                    x-list-class: rl-p-Bullet;
                    x-list-level: 1;
    rh-list.rl-p-Bullet {
                    x-level-count: 1;
                    x-lvl-1-format: "<x>";
                    x-lvl-1-type: disc;
    While it would be really great to have the additional features of the autonumber format, it may not be a viable option for us since it is only available on the paragraph level and Robohelp 8 does not appear to play well with bullets and numbers in anything other than the list level.  I'm thinking I may need to abandon our current style sheet that uses autonumbering and start over with a new style sheet using only the limited bullets and numbering available on the list level (or possibly go old-school and just use the bullet and number toolbar buttons to add formatting to normal text).  We are about 8,000 topics into our conversion of 40,000.  Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

    I'd love to send you the test projects I set up, but unfortunately my company has blocked that ability.  I created brand new blank projects in Robohelp 8 using the default style sheet with an autonumber bullet and numbered step added and nothing else.  I thought this bare-minimum approach would be the best way to make sure it wasn't something we had set up incorrectly that on our end.  I used the default First Topics in each project and added numbered and bullet texts using the style sheet to Project 1 and then added a link to that topic in Project 2.  I didn't even generate the projects and I still had the issue when I previewed the Project 2 topic and clicked the link.
    I've attached a copy of the info on the topic in Project 1 and the code behind the scenes for it below:
    First Topic

    Logically there is no reason that clicking on a link that is outside of the project should be able to recode the topic being displayed, but it is.

    The new tab behavior is driving me nuts. It keeps re-centering on tabs nearest the start of the list when I move a tab. How do I change this?
    I don't want to download an app. I would rather add a new string in about config or just change of the ones in there to false. It's making my work life rather difficult, to be forced to go all the way back to the end of my list after moving one tab just to have to do it again. I mean it's to the point where I might consider changing browsers if they had tab scroll bars.
    Edit: At this point I will download any app. Please make this stupid feature stop.

    The result of setting up that code will do exactly as you described: the tabs will be crowded together. I had not noticed any change in behaviour of Firefox with tabs because all the tabs are crowded together, so they cannot scroll, and I very seldom move tabs.
