Problems with Robohelp 8 adding underscores to filenames & links

I have been provided with 156 word documents that are all interlinked to be converted into a Robohelp project.
The problem is that all of them have spaces in their name ie. "1.01 - Intro.doc", "1.02 Struct.doc", and once all the word docs are imported into Robohelp 8 all the links are broken (they are still trying to link to .doc files and are absolute links).
We had a plan to fix this by running a macro that would change .doc to .html in the links and remove the absolute path, but of course Robohelp 8 adds underscores to any spaces in the file names so the links are still broken. Does anyone have any solutions or would we just have to manually relink everything?
Thanks in advance,
Dan

Hi!
I'm still having the same problem I was hoping to find some solution, because it is really annoying.
I've noticed that this exception occurs after some minor modification in topic text (e.g. correcting a grammar mistake). Also, after generating JAVA help and viewing the results, the topics which have "?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ? at the beginning, won’t be displayed correctly and won’t be found in the search results.
So, I was not able to find the problem, although my colleague can modify the same help projects, and won’t get the same exception. So, my PC was changed, Robo Help installed freshly, but this problem still remains .
Well, any clues?

  • Canon 860 Series (Pixma) Printer Problems with OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion) – links to Canon Support Site with Drivers and Software with install tips

    After spending several hours sorting out Canon Pixma OSX problems here are my thoughts:
    Canon 860 Series (Pixma 868) Printer Problems with OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion) – links to Canon Support Site with Drivers and Software with install tips
    Problem:
    - New imac and MacBook Pro 2012 (OSX 10.8.2) had a problem using Canon Pixma 868 printer on network and would not scan or print using Canon Pixma software (Pixma MP Navigator 2.1 & Photo Print), which has advanced scanning and photo printing functions. 
    - When I connected the canon printer to my imac, OSX 10.8.2 automatically downloaded and installed drivers for Canon 860 series printer. I could then add the new printer (select ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”) and printer would work while connected via USB but could not get to print or scan over network wifi. 
    - The original Canon 860 Series CD does not work with 10.8 and the manual / online instructions did not make sense (as based on CD install). 
    Solution:
    1) Install Canon Printer Drivers and Software (from official Canon site)
    Go to canon support site, review FAQ, then download and install following Pixma 860 Series software & drivers for OSX 10.8 (links see below). The version I downloaded is in brackets but check for updated version. Full instructions are below.
    Canon 860 Series Drivers & Software  for OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion:
    The base software and drivers needed for using Canon 860 Series on Mac OS X 10.8 (USB) are
    1 Printer Driver
    (Canon MX860 series CUPS Printer Driver Ver. 10.67.1.0 (03-Aug-2012))
    2 Scanner Driver
    (Canon MX860 series Scanner Driver Ver. 14.11.4a (03-Aug-2012))
    3 Network Tool
    (Canon IJ Network Tool Ver. 4.1.0 for Intel Mac (27-Dec-2012)
    Canon Software for using advanced printing and scanning functions (while connected to network)

    http://www.canon.com.hk/en/download/main/index.do
    Select Product and drivers from support site eg http://support-hk.canon-asia.com/
    1. Choose a product category
    Multifunctional Printers
    2. Choose a product series

    3. Choose a product model
      Pixma MX868
    4. Choose type of document
    Downloads or FAQ
    If you have problems installing the software under 10.8, see the FAQ on Canon site. You will need to allow software installs from “unidentified developers by using “Control” Key or by changing your system preferences)
    2) Check Canon Printer and Software Working while connected via USB
    Once you have downloaded and installed drivers and software and restarted computer, check that the printer and Canon Pixma software (Pixma MP Navigator 2.1 & Photo Print) are working via USB.  Open the Canon IJ Network Tool App (Applications / Canon Utilities /IJ Network Tool / Canon IJ Network Tool App) and make sure you can see the Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) and that it shows the correct SSID Wifi settings (under the Canon IJ Network Tool App ‘Setup menu’).  This is normally done as part of the automatic install but worth double checking
    3) Add new network printer using ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”).
    After you have checked USB printing turn off printer, unplug the USB cable and shutdown the Canon IJ Network Tool App.
    Then turn the printer back on and wait 30s. Then add a new printer using ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”). Once you select “+” (add new printer), wait 10-30s for the Wifi Networked Canon MX 860 Series printer to appear in the new window eg Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) (Kind: “Canon IJ Network”)
    DO NOT ADD THE MX 860 SERIES BONJOUR SCANNER (the Bonjour Scanner is the built-in software, is not needed and often appears first on the add printer list).  The Canon scanner can be accessed used through the MP Nav EX Ver. 2.1.3 software (which has much better functions)
    You will now have two Printer Canon MX860 (USB) and Canon MX860 (Wifi / Network). Set the Canon MX860 (Wifi / Network) as default and test print and scan
    If the Wifi Networked Canon MX 860 Series printer does not appear, check the printer and make sure that the printer can see the wifi network. On the printer select Menu / Settings / Device Settings / Lan Settings / WLAN Setting List.  It should say WLAN Active, identify the SSID and have an IP address
    If the printer can not see the Wifi Network, plug the USB cable back in, then open the Canon IJ Network Tool App (Applications / Canon Utilities /IJ Network Tool / Canon IJ Network Tool App). Make sure you can see the Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) and that it has your SSID settings (under setup), if it has this info, restart the computer and the printer and try again

  • Problem with RoboHelp 6 (new purchase)

    Hi all,
    Well I have just purchased the latest version of RoboHelp 6
    and I opened my previous project (from RoboHelp X3) in the new RH.
    I managed to have everything working and everything was good for
    about a week (including command-line compilation and batch
    generates). However now when I open my project RH stalls. Sometimes
    it manages to open the project but I can never edit it. I don't
    believe this issue to have anything to do with my machine's specs
    and I am running RH on the local machine (where I have admin
    rights) as opposed to the network. I am a bit confused by this
    behaviour. Maybe I need a patch or something but I am unsure as to
    where to find one.
    Thanks in advance for any advice on this issue,
    darkagn

    I was having a similar problem this morning with RoboHelp 6.
    My project would open, but would immediatly lock up if I tried to
    do anything. I removed the KB927891 Microsoft update that I had
    just installed, restarted, and everything works fine now. (I got
    this idea because it was the only change I had made to my system
    and because Microsoft updates have caused problems with RoboHelp in
    the past.) The notes on the Microsoft website indicate that this
    fix is part one of a two-part solution, so I'm going to wait until
    the second part is posted in June and try the update again. It
    could be a fluke that this worked, but thought I would pass the
    information along.

  • Problem with RoboHelp 8

    I've never used RoboHelp for Word, but had a project come up at work. I'm having a few problems with it.
    The first problem has been brought up in this forum before, but I did not see an answer for it. When I create a hyperlink in the .doc and/or the .rtf file, it doesn't work after I compile it. It looks like a clickable link, but it isn't active.
    The second problem also deals with hyperlinks. There was already a hyperlink in the document, but it was broken. I need to change the name of person in that (broken) hyperlink. I changed the name and the email in the document, but when I compile it it shrinks the font size of the hyperlink from 12pt to about 8pt and it still doesn't work. After I saw that it was changing the font size, I changed it back to the original name and the font size stayed the same. Then I deleted the document and imported another copy of it.After compiling it, the font size for the hyperlink stayed at 12pt. Just to check, I changed the phone number in the block of text, not the hyperlink, but the hyperlink still shrunk.
    I'm sure there is something I'm missing about hyperlinks in this thing, but I've been messing with it on and off for two days and haven't fixed it yet.

    Based on your statement about never using Robohelp for Word, I have to ask the dumb question... sorry...
    Are you using Word's hyperlink feature to add the mailto link like you would in a plain old word doc not associated with RoboHelp? If so, that is not where you add it.
    In RH for Word to add the link, highlight the text, right click and select Insert Help Jump... If you are adding a mailto link, select Action Type HTML Jump and in the URL or File add mailto:[email protected]
    For the link you want to correct, in Word, remove the hyperlink, then do the same as above to add the RH Help Jump. This should solve the font size problem also once you compile.

  • Has anyone else had a problem with Verizon adding the free 1gb of data when you you orderd your iphone 6?

    So on the order, it clearly states that I would receive an extra 1 GB of data for two years when I bought the new iPhone.  I actually added two iPhone 6's to my account.  And each order stated the promotional data.  It did not automatically add when I activated the two new phones.  I have made 4-5 phone calls to customer service and I now have .488 GB of promotional data on my account.  I should have 2 GB...
    Anyone else have this issue and how did you get it resolved?

    I was running into the same problem with my Mac.  I could not open nor find an application that would open a .spdoc file extension.  However, I went to my iPad and was able to open the file using the Scanner Pro app.  I hope this helps.

    When I import my help in application search doesn't work. How

  • AdvancedDataGrid problem with programmatically adding a column

    Hi everybody,
    I have a Problem with adding columns programmatically to a AdvancedDataGrid. The code:
    var cols:Array = thisDataGrid.columns;
    cols.push(dgc);
    thisDataGrid.columns = cols;
    does create a column, adds it to the cols array, bot the last code line has no effect. The cols wont be found in the thisDataGrid.columns property...
    What could be the problem? I'm working with a test license, and on the advanceddatagrid the watermark shows up. Could this be a problem?
    Thanks for help!
    Markus

    As the columns property of an adg is bindable, you could try to bind it to an array and afterwards, add columns to that array:
    AS:
    [Bindable]
    private var adgCols:Array = new Array();
    private function addCol():void
                    var myCol:AdvancedDataGridColumn = new AdvancedDataGridColumn();
                    myCol.headerText = "test";
                    myCol.dataField = "v1";
                    adgCols.push(myCol);
    MXML:
    <mx:AdvancedDataGrid id="adg" designViewDataType="flat" columns="{adgCols}"/>
    This helps?

  • Problems with Robohelp links

    Hi There
    I am using Robohelp HTML 6 and I want my links to be relative links not absolute links. Any ideas? All the links I try to do go back to my C drive instead of to another page within the Help.
    Thanks

    You are talking about links between topics, correct?
    How are you creating them?
    One method is to highlight the text in a topic and then in Project Manager you drag the target link to that text.

    No offense but to stay with your language: You have to tell "your application" that there is a new field.
    Since we have no idea how you access the system, where you added that field and what you expect to happen nobody can help you.

  • Problems with Amarok and accents in filenames [SOLVED]

    Hello,
    First of all sorry for my bad english.
    I have just installed Arch with KDE4.
    I have my music collection in a NTFS partition, and I have managed to have Dolphin show accents correctly by installing ntfs-3g.
    All software I have tested is able to open files which contain accents in its filename from the NTFS partition without problem except amarok. For example, VLC can play any mp3 without problems, but amarok is unable to play all files which contain an accent or files whose parent directory contains an accent, despite the fact that it adds the files correctly to the collection.
    Is someone experiencing the same problem or know a solution?
    (SOLUTION)
    I managed to solve it changing the system locale to UTF8. It caused a mess of filenames with some of my documents but I managed to restore them from a backup.
    Thanks

    That one indeed was the 1 pixel border bug.
    I have now solved this, atleast partially I believe. I am now using ArchSimple theme, which I modified to have 2px borders and better colors for my taste.
    Compositions are still not working, and I do not know why. I have multiple monitors and I am using twinview instead of Xinerama and it should work with it - atleast that is what wiki says if I have not missed anything. The networkmanager menu is still a bit weird looking, but atleast it is not that ugly anymore. Below is a screenshot from current state:
    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27198869/images … 1%3A54.png
    I will mark this as solved now, even though there are still some minor issues which I think do not belong to this thread, but I will list them below anyway if someone knows something about them. I have not found answers for these:
    - GTK checkbox enabled state is way too light. It is hard to see if it is enabled or not. I can not find any docs about it.
    - GTK combobox, when I click it open, list background is black and text is black. Only the hovered text is visible. No docs about this either.
    - Compositions still not working. But that is not really the most important feature I need. I can live without it.
    - My menus are themed as white on black, but some menus are still black on grey (or white). But I can live with it.

  • Design problem with dynamically added row in datatable

    Hello all,
    I have a dataTable and have developped a method that dynamically adds rows to the dataTable. Each row is made up of two form controls. The problem I have now is that I don't know how to retrieve the values from the mutiple rows. Ideally I would need the values to be stored into a list.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks in advance,
    Julien.
    Here is my code:
    <h:dataTable var="line" binding="#{TradeClientsAndQuantitiesBean.clientsAndQuantities}"  value="#{TradeClientsAndQuantitiesBean.listOfMiddleFormHelpers}">
                <h:column>
                    <f:facet name="header">

                    <h:inputText value=""/>

    The values will just be put in the same row object you added to TradeClientsAndQuantitiesBean.listOfMiddleFormHelpers.

  • Problem with my Macbook Pro and D-Link 615 Wireless Router

    Supposedly other people have had similar issues but the router doesn't seem to "like" my Macbook Pro. If i connect the mac to the modem, it runs beautifully on the internet. When I try to connect via Airport or Ethernet to the router, the internet refuses to work and connections are never completely established. The wireless doesn't work but it will find the wireless internet signal but no matter what, it won't connect. The ethernet cable says that it is connected but "may not be able to access the internet" which it can't. What in the world do I do?

    I am having similar problems. I have updated firmware, set the router to g-only broadcast, have WPA personal security, tried the power down technique. What I'm experiencing is that the macbook will see the network, connect to it, browse web pages, but will only go to a certain point. IE-it will load facebook, let me log into my page, but after that anything I click on(check messages, check friend's pages) it gives me a lost connection to server error after a few minutes. Same thing with my forum group webpage. It'll let me log in and view all the forum posts, but when I try to reply to one it times out. Also cannot connect using MSN messenger for mac.
