Non-TOC Files Appearing in Output
I've started to notice, when I output a RoboHelp project into a non-printed format (that is, as CHM file or a Abode AIR project), RoboHelp will include everything in my output, instead of the files that were supposed to be included through the Table of Contents. My projects tend to include files that we're keeping around for our own reference, but don't want anyone else to see, so this is a problem. I've developed a bit of a workaround where I can tag any files not in the TOC, and then exclude those files when I output the project. However, it would be nice if I didn't have to worry about it to begin with.
So, I guess my question is: is including non-TOC files in an output intended, or is it a big? If it is intended, is there another work-around that I can use to stop it?
Welcome to our community
You are misunderstanding the way RoboHelp works. The TOC is similar to a simple web page that simply contains links to other pages. Just as you might have many pages in a web site that aren't referenced by a front end page, the TOC works similarly.
If your goal is to include only content found in the TOC, you need to investigate using Conditional Build Tags and Conditional Build Expressions that will be used to exclude content from the build.
Cheers... Rick

I cannot click on the menu, the beachball is rotating on my desktop, none of the files appear, and when I click on the Finder, the files are there but inaccessible. All applications open. How do I fix this?
hi there,
try booting into safe mode, by pressing the Shift button once you hear the startup sound.
Hope this helps,

I bought creative suite cs6 standard student and teacher edition and the download did not work properly - files appear incomplete/ or damaged. File size seems very small for a product of this size. Can you assist with download issue or provision of software ?
Lalalaladog where did you download CS6 from? I would recommend downloading the installation files for Creative Suite 6 Design Standard at Download CS6 products

Merged child project's TOC not appearing in parent project's TOC
System Information
Windows XP Professional, SP2
Windows Explorer 6.0
RoboHelp X5.0.2
Generating RoboHelp HTML Help (.chm)
Issue
I had the following Help projects:
1. CombinedProductHelp.chm (parent
project)
2. ProductHelp.chm (child 1 project)
3. ProductBestPracticesHelp.chm (child 2 project)
The parent project is a very small Help project that is used
as a place in which to merge the two child projects. I was able to
add the two child projects to the parent project’s TOC in the
RoboHelp HTML TOC editor, seemingly without any problem. The
problem arose when I generated the .chm output for the merged
projects; upon opening the parent project’s .chm file, I
discovered that the Child 1 project’s TOC wasn’t
appearing in the TOC. The Child 2 project’s TOC appeared just
fine. I was able to retrieve topics from the Child 1 project using
the Search function and index – I just couldn’t use the
TOC.
After a bit of trial and error, I discovered that the problem
was the result of the file names I had chosen for the Parent
project (CombinedProductHelp.chm) and the Child 1 project
(ProductHelp.chm). For some unknown reason, if the ENTIRE file name
that’s used for a child project is identical to a PART of
file name that’s used for a parent project, the child
project’s TOC will not appear in the merged TOC. I've used
underscores to "right-justify" the problematic file name to more
clearly illustrate this:
CombinedProductHelp.chm
________ProductHelp.chm
Resolution
You can resolve the issue by renaming either file. Any ONE of
the following examples will resolve the issue:
* Insert a letter (other than
“d”) in front of “ProductHelp.chm” (e.g.,
SProductHelp.chm)
* Insert a letter between “p” and “.”
of “ProductHelp.chm” (e.g., ProductHelpS.chm)
* Insert a letter in the “ProductHelp” portion of
“CombinedProductHelp.chm” (e.g.,
CombinedProducXtHelp.chm)
In the example above, renaming the
“CombinedProductHelp.chm” to
“CombinedHelp.chm” resolved the issue; both child
project TOCs now appear in the parent .chm TOC.Tracey,
Safari might need some of the patches that make WebHelp
behave better (to some extent, anyway) in Netscape, Firefox and
Opera for Windows.
Let's try to pinpoint the problem.
WebHelp generally loads in this order:
--Frame outline
--Main toolbar plain background, then buttons, then the image
background, if any.
--The welcome topic
--The minibar at left-- empty frame, then background and
icons, if any (browse, synch TOC and hide X)
--Table of contents background
--TOC list.
How far does the Mac browser get when you first launch
WebHelp?
If the main topic loads, and it has links to other topics. do
they work?
Can you get the Index and search to work?
Can you hide the left pane and click Contents to show it?
Still empty?

I produce a documentation DVD consisting of a one-page PDF file of ~ 1400 bookmarks and a lot of content. The bookmarks point to the content on the DVD which includes pdf files as well as text, DOC, XLS, and other misc. file types, and a large number of html, swf, flv, .jpg, etc. files which make up 4 complete web sites. The web sites are entirely contained on the DVD (no extermal internet access is referenced or required)
Content is accessed by clicking a bookmark which simply opens the file (regardless of type.) Prior to Acrobat 9.3.4, appropriate warnings popped up for non-PDF files but if allowed by the user, the appropriate app was launched for the requested file.
Since applying 9.3.4, a "Launch File" warning box pops up showing the file name (which lacks a device) and when the warning's "Open" button is pressed, a Windows error appears with the message "Windows cannot find 'file.txt'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file.... ", and finally an Adobe Acrobat information box pops up and says "Could not open the file 'path/file.txt' ".
I have read and re-read about launching external apps, restricted urls and attachments, trust manager preferences, etc. etc. I've added the files to the privileged locations list under the enhanced security settings and on and on. It no longer works, yet I tested this DVD on several computers just last week and it worked fine. So, as a shot in the dark, I decided to fire up my laptop and test it there again.
Once on, the laptop immediately wanted to update about 12,000 software products but I politely said "No, wait until i test this out!" The test was successful and the DVD's pdf file worked great again! At that point I let the machine apply the Acrobat 9.3.4 update (and some uncountable number of Windows patches and fixes.) It's running a current version of Win7. After the reboot, i tried the DVD again (under Acrobat 9.3.4) and it failed as described above. Because of Win7 I was able to revert to acrobat 9.3.2 using System Restore. After doing that, the DVD worked again.
Most of our user's machines are either Macs or WinXP (current versions) and i haven't had time to figure out if you can even recover from this update under those OS's. (It says you cannot remove it from XP, however.) Regardless, even if i can do it for my laptop and get it working again, i cannot do it for all of our users.
So, my question is if i am not doing something wrong, how do i let someone at Adobe know this release is broken?? If i am doing something wrong on the other hand, what is it and how do i get this to work again??
Thanks all.Thanks. I did submit a report at the site. I hope somebody reads it as this is a big problem for us.
Thanks again. -
TIFF & JPEG renders of RAW files appear different when viewed in Bridge
I am working with the demo of Photoshop CS6, with ACR 7.1. CS6 System Info will appear at the bottom of this post. Summary: AMD Phenom II x6 1090T, 16GB RAM, Win7-64bit, nVidia GTX 460 video w/1GB RAM, approx. 2.5 TB free space on multiple internal physical drives, Canon 50D, CR2 files. I have a camera profile generated through Profile Editor, and the monitor is calibrated with i-1 Match.
I have been practicing with the new Basic Panel controls (Process 2012). When I felt that I was getting the hang of them I started saving JPEG and TIFF files and noticed differences between what appears in Bridge and ACR. I worked on this for some time and searched out some other discussions in the Forum which seemed to talk about similar results. I have now tried Image Processor via Bridge, Save Image in ACR, and Open>Save manually in PS CS6. By whatever route, the TIFFs and JPEGs are different (lighter in the following examples, but this is not always the case), while PSD saves seem to be close, but not identical to the CR2 when viewed in Bridge or Photoshop. Here is a screen capture of Bridge thumbnails which show the differences.
I hope the labels come through legibly. The two images on the second row are CR2 and PSD respectively. What is really odd to me is that when I resaved the PSD file as a TIFF, the same sort of difference shows up in the TIFF. (See _MG_7960_via_PSD.tif above.) I have uploaded the CR2, its XMP, a TIFF and a JPEG on Sendspace (107 MB). I did this earlier in my experiments and regret that the file naming is not as informative as might be.
http://www.sendspace.com/file/t0lhko
I have run a few other ACR adjusted CR2 images through Image Processor and seen a variety of differences between the rendered files and the RAW versions. The differences seem to be in Exposure and Contrast. Most of these looked somewhat darker, unlike the examples above.
I will happily provide any other information on request. Thanks!

Thanks again,
Kieren
EDIT: Bingo! I took Auto Tone off in ACR Preferences (in Bridge) and the non-RAW files immediately regenerated thumbs and previews. They now are indistinguishable from the PSD. There is still the very slight difference which I mentioned between the PSD and the CR2. While that seems odd, it is small enough to be relatively trivial.
Many thanks!

"The files appears to be unsupported or damaged" - I can't open the files in any software
I have just returned from a trip where i was on the road for 7 weeks and out of 5000 shots have 30 corrupted DNG files, one of which i would love to save please can you help? My work flow:
Shoot DNG files using Leica M9
Take SD card out sporadically and using SD card reader mount on Macbook air (very old) v1
Open Lightroom 4 on macbook air import to HD
Drag and drop in Lightroom on to external HD
Realised pretty soon some thing was not right with images but continued work flow with out problems with any other import
On returning home i imported project into a new LR5 project on my 15'' Macbook pro running OsX10.8.5, processor 2Ghz intel i7 with 8gb ram
IN LR 5.5(just updated) on my Macbook pro & Macbook air LR4 I can see the preview of the corrupted images in library mode but when go to Develop i get the "The files appears to be unsupported or damaged". In Photoshop CS5 i get "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognise this type of file"
The corrupt files are the same size 36.4MB as the non corrupt images suggesting the info is there. Is there software anyone can suggest that will open the file with the corruption so i can some how fix in photoshop? The SD card was one of many used and was over written many times after so i can not retrieve the images that way i'm afraid.
Any help would be greatly appreciated and i can forward you a copy of the file if you have the time.Realised pretty soon some thing was not right with images but continued work flow with out problems with any other import
Exactly what was not right?
Most likely a hardware problem causing corruption in the transfer of files from SD card to your computer. It could be the SD card itself, card reader, hard disk or memory.
Side issue:
Open Lightroom 4 on macbook air import to HD
Drag and drop in Lightroom on to external HD
why don't you save yourself a step and import directly to the external HD (and thus also produce one less place where file corruption can happen)? -
Cannot find some .TOC file in TDSHL homogeneous DB copy
We are at the import stage of a homogeneous DB copy for an ABAP only BW
system.
This homogeneous copy is a part of a TDMS shell creation.
In import_monitor.log we see errors as follows:

In the exported dump directory, we truly cannot find above TOC files.
We did not have any ERROR during the export phase.
According to my experience, this might be caused by the fact that this ABAP BW system has a JAVA add-on
on a different server with a dfferent SID than the ABAP SID -- but the JAVA DB is in the same database as the ABAP but with a different schema. Therefore when we do export source system->central system->ABAP based, those TOC files could not be created. However I do not have the document created in my previous project, I cannot verify my impression.
Are SAPDDIM and SAPDFACT standard SAP objects?
Please help input your opinions.
Thanks!Pankaj and Anoop:
1) I have removed all lines starting with 'D ' in the problem *.TSK files and run again.
However, it's still looking for the non-existing *.TOC file. Here is the log:

Above are just examples.
5) BTW, DbSl Trace: ORA-1403 when accessing table SAPUSER is NOT a concern here because the logs
of some successfully imported packages also have the same message.
Could you please tell whether you had the same situation? ?

Scan From File aborts the calling VI if it is pointed to a non-existing file
The Scan From File primitive throws an error dialog and aborts the VI if it's given a non-existing file instead of returning an error in its output. See attached example (8.6).

Scan from file bug.vi 7 KBAnna K. wrote:
Please let me know if you need assistance in working around this bug.
For anyone wondering, the workaround is simply to check if the file exists before trying to read it. You can do this by calling the File/Directory Info primitive and checking the error output. Or you can use the OpenG File Exists? VI.
I'm assuming this primitive is used rarely, if at all, which is why no one ever reported this. I had it in an old piece of temporary utility code which was moved elsewhere. It had a hardcoded path and when I ran it again a year or so after last using it, I ran into this. The only reason I used the primitive in the first place was because I wanted a quick way to save a number in a file and read it back. I never used it in any real code.
Anna, I don't personally care, but what's the CAR number? Some people do seem to want to know them.

How to skip non-PDF files in Action on folder?
Hello,
I have an Action in Acrobat Pro XI that takes a default folder and (using JS) batch converts the PDFs to text. However, it also tries to convert *.txt files. I don't care that it imports the *.txt to *.pdf as temp file but it then stops the batch processing by asking if I want to save the changes to the temporary PDF. How can I bypass this? Here is the JavaScript it executes:
/* Convert PDF to Text File (*.txt) */
var inPath = "../";
var outPath = "/c/users/***/desktop/test/output/";
var myFile = inPath + this.documentFileName
var myFileExt = myFile.replace(/^.*\./,'');
if (myFileExt == 'tmp'){
console.println(this.path);
} else {
console.println('Found a PDF!');
console.println(this.path);
this.saveAs(outPath + this.documentFileName + ".txt", "com.adobe.acrobat.plain-text");
Options I'm fine with:
Skipping all non-PDF files from the Actions WizardCan't find a method to do this.
Disabling the Save As prompt for the temporary created PDFs (*.txt files)
The line returned by console.println(this.path) if myFileExt == 'tmp' is this":/C/Users/**/AppData/Local/Temp/A9R6966.tmp
It still creates a temporary PDF.
I tried this.closeDoc('true') but it closes Acrobat entirely.
I hope that is concise enough! Thanks for looking.Skipping all non-PDF files from the Actions Wizard
This used to be possible, but unfortunately it's not possible any longer in Acrobat XI.
What you can try to do is just add a Save command to your Action and hope that it saves the temp files silently (maybe you can save them in some temp folder), and then closes them and continues... -
Ant ; how to move nonjava files to the output folder whn i comile java file
Hi when i compile my java file using javac ant task, i want to move non java file to the same output folder where the dot class file are stored. example if a package has 2 java file and a .properties file, when i javac task compile that package .properties file should move where the .class files are moving. can anyone help me please
An ant target can carry out multiple tasks. You need to put the <javac> and <copy> tasks in the same target in your ant file.

Flash CS6 does not not create an .app file when I Output as application with runtime embedded
I am attempting to create an application with runtime embedded, but the process keeps failing without throwing an error. Specifically: in Air Settings, I select Output as: Application with runtime embedded. When I build it this way, Flash tells me that it's created Telepath Tactics - Steam.app...
...but no .app file ever actually appears in the folder:
This happens regardless of what I include in the Library Path, and regardless of the Default Linkage settings. (When I tell it to Output as: Windows installer, by contrast, the appropriate exe file appears without a problem.)
I'm using Flash Professional CS6 v. 12.0.0.481 on Windows 7, 64-bit.I should note that this only occurs on certain windows machines. I am still waiting to hear which ones.
I personally do not experience this so I have to rely on Client feedback.
On my machine it works fine without Flash installed. -
I ran MacKeeper and demo'd my wife's iPhoto archive bigtime: RAW files appear corrupted and lotsa pix w/no thumbnails or "!" marks instead. Help!
Should I take it that recco'd means 'recommended'? Still have no idea what demo'd means in the context you use. I've often seem it as an abbreviation for 'demonstrate' but that makes no sense. The problem with idiosyncratic abbreviations is that other people don't understand them.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Roundtripping to PSE: "the file appears to be unsupported or damaged"
Hi all,
After using Aperture for four years, I thought I would give Lightroom another try. With Lightroom 5 and Photoshop Elements 11, when I roundtrip an image to PSE, it comes back to Lightroom, but I get a warning that says "the file appears to be unsupported or damaged." I'm on a MacBook Pro (2010) with Mavericks and all the updates.
Somewhere in setting up Lightroom, it suggested working in 16-bits, but my PSE says it can only deal with images in 8-bits. Is that part of the problem?
Many thanks for any help, experience, or advice.OSX 10.8.5 Lr5.3
I had this same problem with TIFF's in LR5.3 using Elements 11 and I didn't in the past. I did some messing around and when I changed the tiff compression in the Lr export from ZIP to NONE the problem went completely away. I didn't want ZIP anyway and I think it got automatically changed in an upgrade of Lr or Elements. I did notice that SOMETIMES if I clicked away from the file with the error and then back a few times the file will load.
You are correct that only a subset of Elements functions work using 16bit tiffs. -
Java Applet Files in RH8 Output
Hello to everyone!
My name is Livia, I am from Romania, and I work as a Technical Writer for a company that makes billing software for telecommunications providers. One of my tasks consists in creating WebHelp files for our web-based applications, and I have recently encountered a problem for which I need some expert advice.
While investigating a recent bug (the help isn't working properly on the web application it's for), I have discovered that there are some Java-related files missing from my help output: webhelp.cab, webhelp.jar and whskin_papplet.htm. These files exist in older projects created with RH5. I now use RH8. The Adobe help page for RH 8 (At http://help.adobe.com/en_US/RoboHelp/8.0/RoboHTML/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d11aff59c2a0-7fb 6.html) lists these files as normally present in the output, and yet, in one of the discussion threads on this forum (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/24865), someone says "webhelp.jar is not being used in the output so you can safely remove it if required. It has been fixed in RH8 and doesn't come in the output."
What is the correct version? Should these files appear in the help output or not?
Thank you,
Livia MironWelcome to our community
The files should not be present. They are not needed. They are (or were) related to the way the navigation pane works.
In RoboHelp 7 and earlier, there was the following option in the WebHelp generation dialogs:
As you can see, RoboHelp 8 does not offer this option:
