Error linking to FM9 book

OK, we recently moved to Actually Adobe Tech Suite 2 and I was doing really well, until . . .
I have watched the videos and read what I can, and from this I have created a FM9 book titled onlinemanual. I have added all my FM docs and everything is good.
I open RH8 HTML, created a new blank project, called it OnlineManual, first topic Welcome. I then click file - Link - FrameMaker Document, and I find the book previously created and click ok. I then get the following error:
"The filename is invalid. The "" character cannot be used in a path."
I have not used any illegal characters in the filenames. The only thing I could think of was RH didn;t like the names of the folders I put the files in (??) so oI copied them to the Documents folder, rebuilt the book and still received the error.
What am I missing here???

Hi all
Personally I belive Peter is spot on. Windows 7 is extremely persnickety about allowing any sort of access to things located in the Program Files folder.
Will the help be deployed on everyone's PCs that way? If so, I'm thinking that WebHelp may not be your desired output type given this situation.
Cheers... Rick

Help with Links to my book/publisher page from ibook to ibookstore

My question : What is the correct way to get links to specific ibooks and publisher pages and on the iBookstore - as I have had trouble with mine.
Many of the iBooks and ePubs samples (Dorling Kindersly for example) that I've downloaded from the iBookstore have a button at the back which takes you to the page for the book itself where you can purchase the complete book.
Similarly on the books themselves they have links to their publisher pages.
• Firstly, I can't work out how to link to a book which hasn't been published yet - So at the back of my samples I put a button next which links to my 'Publishers Page' (see below)
• Secondly, I can't work out how to make a proper publisher page - if there is such a thing - the only way I've managed is to add the publishers name as an 'Author' to the book itest, searching for the authour in linkmaker, then linking to that page:
https://itunes.apple.com/gb/artist/elizabeth-beecher-publishing/id537956085?mt=1 1&uo=4
The main issue is that on my clients (newer) ipad some of the links behave differently... some only take to search page.
What I am currently doing:
• Finding the links by going to http://itunes.apple.com/linkmaker/ then searching for the name of my publisher, where I get to link to the 'artists page' then as all my publications will list the publisher as an Author, when in the new sample they visit this link it should take them to the page with all our publications on, including the one that they have just downloaded a sample of.

Apple has recently introduced 'short links'. That document requires a developer account to access, but this may be of interest:
there is a known issue (r.7414684) where itunes.apple.com links to your company's page do not open the App Store from within your app, giving an error instead; these links include "viewArtist" or "/artist/" in the URL, for example,

Error to open address book database

Hi. I've been using the Palm Pilot i705 without the email feature for several years and on a succession of computers. Never had a problem. Today I can't access it on my pc. I get "error to open address book database."
Is the fix to reinstall the software from the cd? If so how do I save my existing databases or would the subsequent hot sync after reinstall pull in the database? My last hot sync was successful and is my most current.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks. Pat.

cmoulin,
Ok, No problem.
Glad to hear you recovered your data.
FYI,
The best way to preserve your data is to export the data in each category in Palm Desktop to a seperate folder on your PC.
Create a new folder on your PC somewhere that is convenient. Name it something like Palm Desktop Data. Click on the link below and follow the instructions on that page for the export procedure.
http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=28734
Make sure you select all for the range in the export window.
With the data saved in the folder you created, make a copy of that folder and save to a flash drive, cd-rw or external hard drive.
Anytime you make a change in Palm Desktop, export the data that was changed to that folder and save again to the external media.
With this process you can always import the data back into Palm Desktop anytime you have a problem with the data in Palm Desktop or if your computer/hard drive/device crashes.

I bought an eBook from iTunes. I can view/read it perfectly on my iPhone but when I try to open the eBook file on my iPad, I get the error message, "Cannot open book. This book is protected by an incompatible technology." Any ideas for me? thx

Welcome to the Apple Community.
I have seen previous versions mentioned in a pop up message before on iCloud.com, but I'm not really sure at all how it would help, as I couldn't get it to do anything.
The best advice I have at this time is to back up your work on your iOS device by regularly saving it to iTunes, if anything goes wrong you can then either load it into the numbers app again on the device or recover it via iTunes on your computer.
My syncs are immediate, I never get chance to see if it works in the background, sorry.

How to generate a TOC in Rh8 based on a structured Fm9 book

Hi,
After linking a structured FrameMaker 9 book in RoboHelp 8, is it possible to generate a RoboHelp TOC with the same folder structure?
For example, let's say you've created a structured Fm book which consists of several DITA (XML) topics organized into folders, as shown below.
After linking the book in Rh, is there a way to automatically generate a TOC with the same folder structure, as shown below? The TOC should remain linked, so that any changes you make to the Fm book will also be reflected in the TOC after you update the book in Rh.
Note: As RJ Jacquez demonstrated in Linking FrameMaker 9 Books in RoboHelp 8 via Adobe Technical Communication Suite, this can be achieved with unstructured books and documents by using a TOC generated in Fm. However, if you attempt to use this method with structured documents (such as DITA files), the generated TOC is flattened, i.e., the folder structure is lost.
Does anyone have any ideas or solutions?
PS: I am using the Adobe Technical Communications Suite 2.

Hi there,
When you linked the book in Robohelp, in project manager pod just right click in the linked book and go to properties. There you have an option to select the TOC.
Hope that helps
Thanks

Is there any way to determine if a link is a book mark or hyperlink in java script

Is there any way to determine if a link is a book mark or hyperlink in java script
Sub Problem:
I am making an array of quads of all the hyperlinks in a document. I would like to automatically skip over all the bookmarks in the starting pages of a document and just get the links of the hyperlinks.
Now I have to manually set the pages that contain bookmarks so they are not included in the array.
Is there any way to determine if a link is a book mark or hyperlink in java script?
It would help automate the conversion I need below
John
Main Problem:
I have been working on converting a set of pdf files with 1000’s of hyperlinks like www.site.com\folder1\file1.pdf#page=10
To jump to a local copy of the files with a relative type link
../folder1/file1.pdf and then go to the proper page.
I have found that it can be done manually by changing the hyperlink to a javascript
var otherDoc = app.openDoc('../folder1/file1.pdf', this);otherDoc.pageNum = 10 - 1;
and setting each destination file with a disclose()=true;
Based on the help so far that java script cannot access the hyperlink value in a link
See: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1039908?tstart=60
I have resorted to the following plan using acrobat javascript, an external keyboard macro recorder and excel in combination to get around the problem
Four folder level acrobat javascripts with “buttons”
One to get all the link quads in an array, in the pdf and report the total number
The second creates a form field in the far corner of the first page and moves there.
The third jumps to each link found by creating a form field just to the left of the link and zooms in so it can be selected by a “mouse click” from the keyboard macro recorder
The forth deletes the form field
The keyboard macro recorder runs javascript 2 and then 3 then clicks on the link just to the right of the middle of the screen and uses keys to get to the advanced editing to get to edit the hyperlink .
The hyperlink is then copied to excel where it is converted using string functions to the needed javascript text to be copied back.
To the acrobat file into a java script (after deleting the hyperlink)
Rinse/lather/repeat
I have been able to convert about 150 links an hour.
Better then hand typing, but not like having java access to the links.
I am looking to improve the solution

thanks for your help.
I may have been confusing a "acrobat bookmark" and a bookmark in a word file that is converted to a pdf and ends up being a
link of the type:
"Go to a page in this document"
which I do not want in my array vs
a link of the action type:
"Open a web link"
Which I do want
John
My code, note how I have to skip pages with "Go to a page in this document" links depending on the document, I would like to use the same code for each document and skip over the "Go to a page in this document" links :
global.ilinkindex = 1;
global.aLinkquads = [ [0, 1, 1, 0, 0],
       [0, 0, 0, 0, 0] ];
function GetLinkArray()
global.ilinkindex = 1;
var iTotalLinks=0;
// for ( var p = 0; p < this.numPages - 8 ; p++)                   // end before bookmarks for each page of the file x.pdf
// for ( var p = 0; p < this.numPages; p++)                     // for each page of the file
for ( var p = 23; p < this.numPages; p++)                     // start after bookmarks for each page of the file y.pdf
var cropbox = this.getPageBox("Crop", p);
var alinksonpage = this.getLinks(p, cropbox);            // get array of links on page
for ( var ll = 0; ll < alinksonpage.length; ll++)
   var linkquads = alinksonpage[ll].rect;     // get link Quads
   linkquads[4] = p;          // add page number to link Quads array
    global.aLinkquads[global.ilinkindex] = linkquads; // add quads to global link Quads array
    global.ilinkindex++;
iTotalLinks = global.aLinkquads.length - 1;
global.ilinkindex = 1;
app.alert("Number of Links in Document is " + iTotalLinks );

Error message when compiling book "file is corrupt" referring to a photo. Or "cannot find original photo". Can you use photos that have been "edited" out of "Book Mode"?

Error message when compiling book "file is corrupt" referring to a photo. Or "cannot find original photo". Can you use photos that have been "edited" out of "Book Mode"?

I did copy it to my desktop, but it still won't let me open it. I think the file on the disc might be corrupt or something like that though the cd itself checks out fine as far as viruses go. I was able to verify the disc, but that's about it. My husband tried it on his iMac and we have the same issue. It's unzipping the folder, but won't let us open the folder on both the Mac Book Pro or the iMac by double clicking, going to file/open or right clicking. It just keeps saying the same message as I posted above. I think I'm just going to have the client put the pictures on either a memory card or a USB memory stick so she won't have to compress the files for zipping purposes. It's been too frustrating trying to open this folder on this cd she gave me. She said she created/zipped the cd on her Mac Book Pro but it sure won't open on mine.

Error: "failed to load book because the requested resource is missing"

I book a book via the iPad. The book appeared in my library no problem with the "new" tag and stuff, but when I tap it to read I get an error "failed to load book because the requested resource is missing." Any ideas? I'm on the road, so I haven't synced or backed up or anything..
I've also verified that I have a good connection, etc. I'm able to hit the "store" button and browse the store no prob, as well as web, etc.
Any thoughts?

I believe I may have the answer to these many concerns.
When a book is over 20 or so megs, iBook will sometimes make an attempt to download on the iPad (when it should not). This causes problems. Perhaps the one you are experiencing. Therefore you have to wait until you are on a wifi connection before purchasing dictionary-like books. But if you've already made the mistake of downloading, theres no guarantee wifi will correct this.
What worked for me (like others have already mentioned) is that if you have an iphone or touch you can download it from there, sync with your computer and sync your iPad later. The book(s) will transfer just fine as long as you have this enabled on your devices.
Initially this didn't work for me because in my frustration with a prior issue I took the liberty to create another iTunes account. Therefore iPad purchases were not visible on my phone. So be sure to have the same accounts activated on your devices and iTunes.
Yet even further diagnostics may need to be explored as I'm still prompted to provide my password every time i open iBooks (as if the download is still pending). Kinda afraid to revert to factory settings over a small issue. In the coming update Apple should fix these problems altogether. Hope this helps!

Error opening external DTD 'book.dtd'

I know this may be something simple, but can't get it to work. I have a local (on my local network) dtd file that I'm trying to use for validation on my xml file.
My first two lines in the xml are:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<!DOCTYPE book SYSTEM "D:\tmp\book.dtd">
When trying to parse it in Java, I get the exception thrown of:
Error opening external DTD 'book.dtd'.
I checked, and the file has full permissions for read and write, and it is in the directory specified.
How can I use an external dtd file on my local network for my DTD validation?
Thanks in advance!

Receive "Fatal Internal Error: Linker.cpp, line 1926 when run executable.

Hi, I use invoke node to call multiple subvi.vit, it work fine under .vi but when run under an executable I receive this error:
Fatal Internal Error: 'linker.cpp", line 1926
LabVIEW Version 7.0 You will lose any unsaved work. For more assistance in resolving this problem, please relaunch LabVIEW, or contact National Instruments.
Any suggestion will be very appreciated

Hi David,
What you are seeing is a known issue when calling LabVIEW 7.0 VITs from
an executable or DLL if the VITs include any Express VIs. It can happen if you
try to load
multiple instances of that template VI using VI Server.
There are a couple of workarounds for this issue:
Take
all the express VIs that are inside the template VI and turn them into
static subVIs. You can do this by right-clicking on the express VI and
selecting "Open Front Panel"; then save the express VI as a normal
subVI.
Build the entire application into a single executable, which will force all of the express VIs to get compiled as static subVIs.
Don't use the runtime engine at all and always run your application in development mode.
Let me know if the workarounds fix your issue, thanks.
Good luck!

Linking to TOC Books

Greetings,
I am using RX7 to develop a WebHelp project. My client would
like to have Splash page which allows the user to click a link and
display a specific TOC Book.
I can meet the client requirement by creating separate
projects and linking from the Splash page to the project.
Is it possible to create a single project, have the Splash
page display and then open a specific book when the corresponding
link is clicked?
Thanks,

I suggest creating a topic that is your splash page. Then, in
the Properties dialog of the TOC book in the TOC pod, link a topic
to the book. Next, the link on the splash page would point to the
topic that is linked to the book.
If you don't want the splash page in the TOC, you could leave
it out.
Hope this helps,
Ben

TCS2: linked project FM9 & RH8, impossible to update new FM parag

In a linked project FM9 and RH8, everything works fine except the following update:
If I add a new paragraph label in the FM9 document and save it; then if I run the overall update from RH8 everything seems to work fine, but when I try to edit the styles (Paragraph with the FM_FMlabels list), the new added paragraph label has not been imported.
What is wrong in my procedure ?

You probably need to go into the RH to FM conversion settings on the project to map the new FM style to something RH understands.

if you can't compile the webutil.pll in your forms developer you need to set the forms_builder_classpath in you windows registry. You have to add the frmwebutil.jar,jacob.jar to the registry key. The configuration files you mention are for running the forms.
