Editing topics in Word

Yesterday I had to have my hard drive replaced, so
consequently I was without RoboHelp for a while. Meantime, I edited
a couple of topics by selecting them from the directory where they
resided in compiled form, opening them with "Edit." They came up in
Word and I was able to successfully make my edits. However, when I
got my computer back and was able to access RoboHelp again, I tried
to open these same topics, but they continue to open in Word (only
these two -- the rest open as usual).
So my Q is: How do I get these topics to open in RoboHelp
again?
Many thanks,
Lon

Hi all
Personally, the way I find easiest is by simply advising
RoboHelp HTML that
IT should be the only editor in town. You do this as
follows:
1. Click
Tools > Options...
2. Click the
HTML Editors tab
3. At the bottom of the dialog should be two options. One is
labeled
Auto-select Editor and the other is labeled
Use Default Editor. My guess is that the default setting of
Auto-select is set. Choose the other option and click the
OK button. Once you do this, regardless of what application
was used last to edit the HTML files, RoboHelp HTML will be used to
edit them when you are working with RoboHelp HTML!
Happy Thursday all... Rick

    Is it possible to edit the MS-Word "Print It!" on a standalone topic?
    The topic would need to be edited in the Topic Editor and republished for the edits to be included in the standalone topic.

  • When I attempt to edit Topic Properties of an open topic, RH crashes

    Using RH10, to generate CHM files.  When I attempt to edit topic properties of an open topic, RH crashes.  Is there a patch for this?
    Thanks!

    Are all other programs working correctly?
    Have IT made any changes that might be relevant?
    Was Rh10 working OK or is this a new installation that has never worked? In other words your earlier version was OK but the problem started on upgrade.
    Have you rebooted the PC since this started?
    Beyond that it might be time to consider a reinstall.
    Let us know how you get on.

  • Acrobat 9.5 - use Touchup text Tool to edit PDF. Updates do not display. But, if I "save as" Word doc, the edits appear in Word. This feature worked in earlier versions of 9.x patches.

    Acrobat 9.5 - use Touchup text Tool to edit PDF. Updates do not display. But, if I "save as" Word doc, the edits appear in Word. This feature worked in earlier versions of 9.x patches.

    I have a suspicion you're working with a scanned document that has had OCR run to recognize the text. The recognized text may be stored on an invisible layer above the image of the text, and that is what you're toucing up. It's invisible, so you don't see it, but retains the changes, so exporting produces the new edits.
    When you run OCR to recognize scanned text,, try using the ClearScan option, instead of Searchable Text. See this help page on Acrobat (this is for version X, but still applies):

  • I exported a pages document to word, but was not able to edit the new word document.

    i exported a pages document to word, but was not able to edit the new word document.

    I have a OSX IMAC Version 10.8.5.  I got pages at the same time I purchased this computer.  I use a document to write all my passwords. Seems like when I E-mail myself the document from pages, I have not been able to type in the document, it acts like it is locked. I checked all the "lock" and "unlock" fields, and none of them were locked.  I notice the document says PDF.  How do I correct this?  Seems like I've tried everything.  If you can help, that would be great!

    how to edit a converted Word Document from a PDF file

    Hi Edit Converted Word Doc,
    What's happening when you try to edit the file? Have you tried triple-clicking in the text block that you want to edit?
    Please let us know what sort of trouble you're running into. It would also be helpful to know how the PDF file was created, and what version of Word you're using.

  • Which Illustrator CS3 files are editable in Microsoft Word?

    Dear all
    I need to design something using InDesign and Illustrator CS3 (or just one of these depending on the responses I get).
    Is is possible to save a particular file type out of either Illustrator or InDesign which can then be opened & edited in Microsoft Word (on a PC)? It would mainly just be text which would need to be edited in Word afterwards.
    Thanks in advance,
    Adam

    >Which Illustrator CS3 files are editable in Microsoft Word?
    None of them.
    >Is is possible to save a particular file type out of either Illustrator or InDesign which can then be opened & edited in Microsoft Word (on a PC)?
    You can export text from InDesign and open/edit that text file in Word, but you will not get layout, page size, columns, margins, or graphics. You can export art from Illustrator as EMF or PNG (I much prefer PNG) them import those graphics normally and position as you want.
    Making your Illustrator or InDesign file into an editable Word file means doing a lot of it over again in a much worst interface.

  • SharePoint 2010 Edit in Microsoft Word and Save back to SharePoint not working

    Hi, I'm using SharePoint 2010 for document collaboration. I have bunch of MS Word and Excel 2010 documents loaded on the site's document library. I'm having trouble saving the documents back to SharePoint. I click on the documents "Edit in Microsoft
    Excel" or "Edit in Microsoft Word" the document opens, I work on it, then I click "Save" but it wants to save to local documents folder, not SharePoint.

    Hi,
    According to your description, documents cannot be saved back to SharePoint Library when editing in Microsoft Office desktop application.
    I tried to reproduce this issue in my environment, it turned out that all work as expected.
    You can try the steps as below to see if the issue still exists:
    1. Enable the local webclient service on the machine.
    2. Make sure that “Enable Protected View for files located in potentially unsafe location“ is unselected in Trust Center settings in Microsoft Word and Excel 2010.
    Here is a link with more details about enabling the local webclient service on the machine:

  • Need an app to edit and sign word documents (sign with stylus)! Notability let's me sign but doesn't pull up letter head, quickofficepro let's me edit but not sign. Looking for an app that does both

    I am looking for an app where I can edit word documents as well as sign them.  I am a physical therapist whose looking to cut down on paper work.  Someone types my evaluations and then we print them out for me to edit by hand and then they go back and make the corrections on the computer then w print them and sign them to send off.  Recently I have begun using apps where I can pull up the document and edit it thru quickofficepro or through cloudon, but I cannot sign them using a stylus pen.  I also have notability which I can use to sign the documents, but it doesn't save the document as a doc, it's either a PDF or rtf. Also, in notability, it doesn't pull up the letter head for our company which is a template with our logo on it.  So I need an app where I can both edit and sign my documents by hand using a stylus.  If someone could provide me with any relevant information I would greatly appreciate it.  Thank you for your time.

  • Cant Edit Message Body (outlook 2003 and 2007), Cant select text VIA click (word), Cant Edit Advanced Options (word)

    A number of my users are having similar problems across the entire network. These issues have started on 8/26/2014
    This problem is not localized to a specific outlook version, the problem is happening on 2003 and 2007 alike. Also this problem is starting to move into MS-Word.
    In outlook i am unable to click the message body. If i click the message body nothing happens. I cannot select any text, type, or anything in the message body. I am however able to type in the message body if i press the 'tab key' and navigate to the message
    body. 
    I have wiped out profiles. reset all user settings, changed datafiles etc. Nothing i do seems to affect this problem.
    On microsoft word i am unable to edit a number of documents. These documents are readable, editable etc on different computers. There are not any protections on the files. The user who reported this problem is however unable to edit the text even though
    others are able to. To correct this problem we have protected and unprotected the file checked permissions all with no luck. 
    On the same computer i am unable to change any advanced options. When i attempt to click the listing nothing happens. Its acting in the same manner as outlook is described above. However i am unable to select anything using the 'tab' key.
    These problems started on a few different computers, but is beggining to spread and affect more users across the network.
    This also does not seem to be a group policy issue. We have a number of different user groups on the network, and this problem is not isolated to any specific user, or group, group member etc..
    Thanks in advance to anyone who might be able to lend some assistance to solve this matter.

    Hi,
    Please first verify the activation status of your Microsoft Office.
    If your Microsoft Office is activated, please try to start Outlook or Word in safe mode to check if this issue persists. To do this, press Windows key + R to open the Run command, type
    outlook /safe and press Enter.
    Also please try to run a repair of your Office installation to check the result. See:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/924614
    Please let me know the result.

    It's recommended to download and install
    Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT), which is developed by Microsoft Support teams. Once the tool is installed, you can run it at any time to scan for hundreds of known issues in Office

  • I created a document in pages and had it saved and then exported to send to someone to edit in in Word and ow it is in Word format.. i need to revert it back to my Pages format. help??

    I created a document in a template on pages.. and i saved it.. then I exported it to a Word document to send to someone to edit for me.. i have never done that before i usually use a PDF..and it changed it and won't go back! HELP!

    Again: Have you tried to open the Word .docx in Pages?
    Pages doesn't save to Word it Exports to Word .doc so there should be a .pages copy on your Mac.

  • How to edit the T9 word suggestion list

    HI all,
    I hope someone can help here..  I'm using the N97 with original firmware (no update available yet). When I'm using T9 text input from the dialpad and type 86 which should give 'to' I get 'vo' instead which is not even a word as far as I know, to make matters worse if I press * to get the next word it give 'vo' again, so now each time I type 'to' in a message it take 4 keypresses.
    My question is, is there an editable T9 word list file where I can remove this problem? it was not on the N95 which I've used for 2 years so it's really anoying.
    Thanks & regards 

    Hi,
    I don't know much about T9 on N97. But currently I'm using Nokia 5800xm and not much different compare to N97 (i think).
    In 5800xm, I can spell (pesonalize) what ever word I want on the T9 predictive, but I can never delete any suggestion word that I don't want to be listed in it. Nokia 5800xm doesn't have this feature compare to Sonyericsson W810i that I recently used. The T9 prediction feature was great and I don't have to spell all the word I want, it will predict the word out I can choose it right away. I hope Nokia can overcome to this feature.
    Better still in 5800xm, it'll list the most frequent used word in the first selection of the word. Saying that, if you use the word "to" frequently, the it will memorize it and you don't have to press the "*" 4 times as before when ever you keypad "8" and "6" simultaneously.
    I hope this will help you.
