Importing word-xml into wd officecontrol

hi all,
i've tried some things with the officecontrol. Importing Word docs ist quite easy with binding the datasource
to a word-doc content with mime type "doc" ,"application/msword".
Unfortunately i have to import xml content. The client application is Word 2007. I don't know how to handle
that. The activex only shows the raw xml-content, but when i opened the xml-file with word 2007 directly
the content is shown as a real word document.
kind regards
thomas

Can no longer import Word files into InDesign

Hello,
For many months I have been importing Word files into InDesign CS3 (Mac OSX 10.4.11) with no trouble, but I started having a problem yesterday.
When importing a 17-page Word file with 16 footnotes, I got none of the text and only the footnote numbers. This is what I get in InDesign:
12345678910111213141516
(Endnotes)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15
These are the things I've tried already: restarting, deleting preferences, changing the import options, using CS2, importing someone else's Word file, importing a Word file that I imported successfully a couple of months ago. None of this works.
It has been suggested that I save the Word file as rtf, but since I have 200 files to import and I'm using Word's character styles for italics, bold, small caps, etc., I'd rather try to fix this problem.
Can someone help?
Thanks,
Tina

I am using indesign CS2 and i'm trying to import a Word document into a new chapter for a book i'm laying out. it's about 30 pages, but there are at least 80 foot notes. i'm able to get about 1/2 of the document with the footnotes to flow correctly, then EVERYTHING disappears. the only way i've been able to get the remaining text to appear is by adding characters to the text. i'll hit "vvvvvvvvvvvv" a bunch of times and "magically" a little chunk of text and it's footnotes appears. then the ole disappearing act happens. so i do it again. i'm able to get all the text to appear finally, but when i delete the "vvvvvvvvvv" from the places i inserted them, the text disappears again. i have no idea why this is happening or how to fix it. any ideas?
thanks so much,
travis

Error on Importing Word document into RH7

I am attempting to import Word docs into RoboHelp7. The first several documents are imported and saved into the project without incident. However, one file causes an error: "An error occurred while trying to save data to : <RH project name> <5>. The same error occurs each time I attempt to import this particular file; the error message will not disappear when I click on OK and whole project has to be closed. Thank you.

Colum,
Thank you for your prompt response. I tried importing sections of the word document as you suggested, but I was not able to isolate the error. I confess that after repeated errors and shutdowns, I discontinued this troubleshooting, lest it cause any damage to the original project files.
Instead, I opened a new project, and imported the Word doc into that project. Then I imported these HTML files into my main project. It was not graceful, but the end result is good, with all the links and formatting preserved.
As other Word docs have since been imported into this project without incident, perhaps it was a fluke/bug in this one document.
I appreciate your help in resolving the situation.
Thank you.

Importing word doc into InDesign

I am trying to find the best way to get about 250 word pages into 250 InDesign pages.
Currently I am assuming I have to copy/paste each page by hand. Is there a way to set page breaks in word and have them relate to pages in InDesign? I know that I can Find/Change attributes to batch/automatically apply styles to imported text. My major issue is that each InDesign page has a header, sub header, then 4 - 5 paragraphs with inline headers, so there is a lot of formatting.

You have to put your custom frame on you master A page. Open your pages pallet. select the master page, create you custom frames on the master page. Select the first frame, click on the little blue box the bottom right the hover you curser over inside the next frame and it will turn into a chain link icon. Click.
This will link the two frames together over the left and right pages.
Now double click on page one in your page pallet. You'll see the dotted frame which means that it on you master page. If you don't? then got to menu View>show frame edges.
Next
File> place select the word file
your curser will load with the word file, hover your curser inside the dotted blue frame you just made on page 1 hold down your shift and click

Missing spaces between words after importing Word document into RoboHelp HTML version 8

I created a 400+ page document in Word 2007 and imported it into RoboHelp 8 (HTML, not RoboHelp for Word). In many places, the space between a bold word and a non-bold word is no longer there. I would like to avoid having to go through the entire RH document to replace the spaces manually. Did I import incorrectly?

Looks perfect, works terribly...
Things to consider:
Chances are, the different treatments of the space are due to whether the space was included in the bolding of the word in MS Word.
Additionally, since Word files contain much underlying binary code (macros and such), your security settings might or might not be playing well with the Word stuff.
Are you importing the Word file from a network location, or from your local machine? Network traffic might be partially impacting the import, too.
Bottom line? You'll probably need to clear all formatting in the Word file and redo the formatting properly. To test this, cut a couple of pages into a new Word file, clear and redo the formatting in Word, import the Word file into another RH project, and see what results you get.
To clear the formatting:
Select text.
On the Home tab, in the Font group, click Clear Formatting.
Redo the formatting, being careful to not format the spaces.
Good luck,
Leon

Losy images after importing Word document into RoboHelp 7 HTML

We imported a simple Word document into RoboHelp 7 HTML, as a
new project (from scratch).
Everything worked out pretty well (afterall, this was just a
simple Word document), and we expect to have to tweak the styles,
etc. That is understood.
However, the images that were embedded in the Word document
(as opposed to saved to disk, and only linked to the Word document)
do not look very nice in the RoboHelp 7 HTML project topics.
When we browse to the iamge folder, and view the actual image
files, these images do not look too bad. But in the Design View,
the images have display issues (solid color bars on the
sides/top/bottom of the images). When we compile to a Single Source
Layout (except PDF), the images look fine again. When we create
Printed Documentation, even for the best PDF-settings, the images
look terrible -- smudgy, like low resolution quality).
1) Except for storing the images outside of the Word document
before importing, and then manually linking them back into the
imported RoboHelp HTML files, is there a way to maximize the
quality of the imported Word images in RoboHelp HTML?
2) Why doe the images look worse in Printed Documenation
(PDF), even for the highest PDF settings, than for the other Single
Source Layouts?
While I am typing, I realized that we should try to include
the images in Word via a link to the image files on disk. Perhaps
then RoboHelp will not actually modify the image files during
import. I will report back about this one.
Your help will be greatly appreciated!

Importing Word doc into Previously Existing Project Corrupts Related Topics

Hi,
I had a few extra topics that I documented in a Word document
and imported that document into an existing HTML Help project in
RoboHelp. After doing this, it used the CSS file called by the new
folder it added for those new topics (based on the name of the
imported word doc) and when I look at topics in WYSIWIG, the text
on them is Design_Time Con. (I used the text only style of related
topics). When I select the related topic button in WYSIWIG and view
the popup, the menu choice for properties is deactivated so I can't
even edit the topics in them. And, when I try to add a new related
topic, it looks the same "corrupted" way.
What am I going to do? Is there are project setting that is
pointing to the wrong directory? What can I do to save my related
topics. I have over 400 topics all with related topics buttons and
each has an average of 6-8 related topics listed.

P.S. I also tried creating a new project and importing the
htm files into it but it is doing the same thing.
Here is the code for the Related Topics in one of the topics
as a sample:

Importing Word 2007 into RH8

Hi,
It used to be very easy to import a Word document into RoboHelp if it was styled. Every Heading 1 would start a new topic.
Now It doesn't seem so easy - in fact I can't seem to be able to break up a document into topics at all.
Also, the images in the document are not importing. Did they ever? I don't remember.
Thanks for any help,
Marion

In the dialogs when you import you will see an Edit button. Click that and you can set which styles create new topics.

Nd suggestion for importing Word doc into Pages template....

I have a rather lengthy Word file that I want to import into Pages using one of its templates (Travel Journal). Is there a way to import the Word file directly into this template?
I know you can import a Word doc into Pages but once you do that, you have to do the designing from scratch (or at least that what it looks like you have to do).
I like the Travel Journal template and wanted to use that for my Word doc. Any suggestions for getting my Word doc into this template, without having to cut and paste each section?
I like the template because of the varied page layout options and I don't want to have to recreate from scratch!
Help!

Hello Debbie,
as I know there is no way to get what you want. I think you have to load the Word document into Pages and than you have to copy and paste all the text and media objects into the Pages template.

Importing word tables into ID

I need to import a table from word to ID. The cols run several pages each in Word. How do I import the table so that cols break neatly within the frames?
I've tried "help" but I couldn't make it work. I just need to know how to make the table flow.
Thanks

Unfortunately, table cells won't break across pages or frames in InDesign. When I had a project like this, I did a lot of prep work in Word using Convert Table to Text, and then messing around with the text formatting so I could import the content into InDesign. Instead of one text frame with a table with three columns, I'd have three separate text frames with "faked tables" made of paragraph rules and anchored "gridlines."
Sorry, you're in for a bit of a manual slog on this one.

Re-importing word document into existing project

2. I imported a Word (Windows XP) doc to create my robohelp
project.
I am new to RoboHelp, so please bear with me...
I had imported a word document into a project for HTML Help.
I had mapped some IDs to create context sensitive help to work with
our application. When the word doc is updated and I re-import it,
the topics are duplicated in the TOC. (I normally get updates of
this document from another department and we need to convert it to
HMTL help for our application).
How do I fix this or prevent this from happening? (Other than
delete the old project, create a new project, and import updated
word document since I would have to remap all the IDs again.)
Thank you for your help.

Sorry, I have to disagree with your estimate, for the main
reason that all those reviewers will be manipulating the Word
document with their own formatting quirks, which will only serve to
corrupt the doc file and make its repeated importation increasingly
problematic.
Remember, you're looking to convert a binary file with tons
of macros into HTML code, essentially a flat text file. I suspect
that remapping the IDs will end up being the least of your problems
as you go further into repeated review cycles.
Good luck,
Leon
