Is it possible to reuse the map file that was produced to map FrameMaker styles to RoboHelp when creating a PDF in RoboHelp?

I'm using RoboHelp 11 to produce WebHelp. The documentation was previously written in FrameMaker and posted in PDF format, however it has undergone many releases since those days. I'm now being asked to create the help in PDF and WebHelp. Not really an issue except that the help format does not look particularly good in PDF (not designed for both).
Ideally I'd like to just use the map file from the original Frame to RoboHelp conversion in reverse (with a little editing)--to convert the RoboHelp styles to the original FrameMaker formats when I create the PDF, however A) there doesn't seem to be an option for that, and B) the original FrameMaker to RoboHelp map file doesn't seem to have been preserved after that conversion.  Is it there and I'm just not seeing it?
If necessary I can just create another CSS to redefine the styles, but if I don't have to, I rather not.

I suspect that even if you could find the mapping information (pass as to where) it would simply tell you that Style A in Fm was mapped to Style B in Rh but not give you any information about how Style A was defined in Fm.
I think your only options are to create a CSS as you suggest or, as I would, create redefine the Word Style Mapping Template to suit. By going to Word first, you can edit the output for better page breaks and other tweaking you might want.

  • Where should I store the collatoral files that are associated with photos stored in lightroom?

    Where should I store the collatoral files that are associated with photos stored in lightroom? Items such as pdf files, word documents, etc. How should I connect them to each other so I can find both the photo and the related data?

    Lightroom itself will not help you with pdf, word, etc.
    However, there is a plugin you can use called AnyFile which will allow you to manage these documents in Lightroom (by assigning keywords and other metadata) so that you can search for all documents (photos, pdf, word, music, powerpoint, etc.) with given metadata.
    Because you do this via metadata, it doesn't matter where you put these files. Put them anywhere you want.

  • Can't find a raw file that was just on my fash card. need help.

    I shoot raw/jpg.  I viewed in Digital Photo professional and transferred a Tiff to photoshop. I saved the image on a seperate disc. when I opened and tried to save again I received an error saying I didn'thave permission. I finally saved the psd version by changing the name of the picture. when I went back to the raw file on my flash card it was gone.  when I went back to the tiff file that was gone to. the only file I have left is the jpg back up and the psd version.  All the other pictures are still on both the flash card and my backup drive except this one. I've done recovery searches and they recover everything i've deleted from the flash card except the file I need.  I don't understand why this happend. I've tried searching for hidden files etc. I didn't delete this file. the recovery program shows that it is there it just won't get it. it gets everything else but not this one.  both the raw and the tiff files disappeared from two different drives. I want to get the raw file back.  Help!

    Recovery programs can only recover file that have beed deleted when the media space they occupied has not reused and written over.  So if the recovery program did not recover your images. I would be willing to bet some of the space the image occupied has been written over.  So it can not be recovered even though its delete directry enter can be read its data is no longer intact.
    Without a system trace you have to rack your brain the remenber all you did.  To get a clue to what wrote to your flash card. Its best to just copy file off flash cards onto your hard disk and remove the card from the card reader with the files still on the flash card.  After processing your images on your computer its a simple quick process to format the flash card in camera.

  • Syndicator Server: possible to split the export file in multiple file?

    Hello,
    is it possible to split the export files into multiple files e. g. at 5000 records?
    Perhaps there is a possibility in the mdss.ini? Or a setting in the mapping?
    Thank your for your responses!
    Melanie

    Hi Melanie,
    - If you are syndicating in the Xml format you have the option to syndicate one xml for every record. or multiple records one xml.
    For this you have to make a simple setting in the Syndicator-> Map properties->XML file output->(multiple files/single file)
    Other way around is:
    - If you are syndiacting in any other format say text then the output file goes as one file for all records present in the MDM repository, for this you can use the search options.
    - Create a search on some field value which will select a set of records from the lot.
    - Then you can syndicate only those records which satisfies the  search criteria.
    - In this way it is possible to syndicate in parts
    Hope It Helped,
    Kindly Reward Points if found useful
    Thanks & Regards

  • HT201361 Is it possible to save the screenshot files to a different folder than desktop. How can I change the folder?

    Is it possible to save the screenshot files to a different folder than desktop (that is the default). How can I change the destination folder? Thank you, Sal

    To change the screenshot capture location to a new place on your Mac, first think of a location that would serve you properly. We like to place ours in a "Screenshot" folder located inside of the User's "Pictures" folder. To change the location to this new location, open the Terminal and enter the following command:
    defaults write com.apple.screencapture location /Users/[u]/Pictures/Screenshots/
    Replace "[u]" with the name of the user on your system. Once you have entered this command, let's restart the screen capture utility by restarting the SystemUIServer by entering the following command:
    killall SystemUIServer
    You can optionally log out and back in instead of entering this second command, thus restarting the SystemUIServer. Once restarted, all screen captures taken from here on out will end up in your /Pictures/Screenshots/ folder in the User's home folder on your Mac.

  • Everytime I open iphoto, my computer tells me A photo has been found in the iPhoto Library that was not imported.  Would you like to import it.  no matter what I do, iphoto puts the pic in recovered files.  How do I fix this?

    Everytime I open iphoto, my computer tells me,  A photo has been found in the iPhoto Library that was not imported.  Would you like to import it.  If I import it, a message comes up Unreadable file, the following file could not be imported. them it tells me where the file is and it cannot be opened.  If I do not import, then it says,The photo has been placed in the folder /Users/patrick*******/Pictures/iPhoto Library Recovered Photos_4.  It will just keep adding to recvovered photos.  This drives me crazy!!!!!!!  How do I fix this?

    I had this problem some months ago and the following solution from Terrence Delvin put things right:
    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
    Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
    Start iPhoto. Does that help?
    If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.
    However, since connecting a memory stick to my computer, I now have the same problem again.  This time there is no folder called 'Import' or 'Importing' so what should I do?

  • Trying to use a new, larger external hard drive for my Time Machine backup.  However, every time I start the backup, it gets started then fails.  And, I can't delete the few files that did save on the external.  Sort of a catch 22.  Any ideas?

    Trying to use a new, larger external hard drive for my Time Machine backup.  However, every time I start the backup, it gets started then fails.  And, I can't delete the few files that did save on the external.  Sort of a catch 22.  Any ideas?

    Is it a USB hard drive?  USB hard drives have the problem of not giving full speed if they are hooked up on the same bus as keyboards and mice.  Double check your profiler to make sure that is not a problem.  If it is Firewire, make sure there aren't other firewire devices in use at the same time.  I recommend not only keeping a Time Machine backup, but also a clone, and if you do use Time Machine, to make sure the Time Machine drive or partition is at least twice the size of the original drive.

  • When fonts are packaged, do these fonts only link up to the one InDesign file that was packaged?

    I often work with InDesign client files that are different "versions" of the same file (the only change between these InDesign files maybe be a location name, but the rest of the file is the same (fonts, links, etc). So I'll have an InDesign file named as A version, one as B version, etc. When I open the A version of the file and package it for the printer, are those fonts (Document fonts) available to that specific InDesign file only? If I copy the other versions of InDesign files into that folder for the printer (rather than package each individual InDesign file, will those other InDesign files link to the collected Document folder? Or will I have to package each file separately?

    Thanks for replying Steve. A man who worked at a press, told me that InDesign files always pulled fonts from the same folder first. My coworker thinks it's only the InDesign file that fonts were packaged for. Now I don't know for sure what he meant and I don't have a way to contact him again.
    More experimentation on my part will be required and more packaging of files. Our Creative dept has 3 designers and when we work on each others files, there's always font issues unless the fonts have been packaged for each file. And don't get me started on Helveticas! Between system fonts, fonts used over the years, clients providing fonts... it's been a problem we've yet to solve... everyone using the same Helvetica font family.
    Again, thanks Steve.

  • I can not print a pdf file that was sent in an email.  I get the error message that adobe could not

    I can not print a pdf file that was sent in an email.  I get an adobe error message that it can not print with an ok to check and when i do I get another adobe error message that says I did not select a page to print. I have downloaded the latest adobe download.  I forwarded the email to my husband and he printed the document just fine.

    This first question which comes to mind is how do you display the pdf file in the browser?
    For this the browser uses a plug in (e.g. adobe reader) which already has the ability to print the pdf file. Depending on the version of your plug in, printing is started differently.
