RH7 project upgraded to RH8 won't output .epub

I want to make a project available as an epub edition. I've upgraded to RH8 and imported the epub generator script and the zip programme. When I open my project (which was created in RH7) I upgrade it so it will work in RH8. I run the script and generate an epub file but on that is only 560kb big, which seems small for my project. If I try to open it it crashes Adobe Digital Editions.
I can create a new test project of a few pages and get this to work, so it is clearly not the installation but the project that is the problem.
My question is, how do I find out what is causing the conversion to fail? My project is quite complex with lots of images, footnotes, internal links and pop-ups so I don't really want to have to recreate the whole thing in RH8.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

That's what we do best, here...send people away to rethink!
As you rethink the project, you might reconsider tailoring the content for epub so that it could actually be quite useful for those users viewing on a smaller screen.
Actually, this rethinking could be a beneficial two-way street: the epub formatting might prompt you to reformat across the board, thereby producing a leaner primary output. Think about it. As I like to say about extensive DHTML & JavaScript elements: just because you can, doesn't mean you should.
Good luck,
Leon

  • RH8 won't upgrade RH7 project. He'p Me!

    RH8 starts, and then I open the RH7 project, and then RH8 says it will "upgrade" the project, and then it says "Error reading RHFrameStyleMappings.apj file". Yes, that file exists, size 0, in the local copy of the project. I have not set up RoboHelp Server 3.1 to point to the server, yet. What do I have to do to get moving? Thx.

    Hi Eileen
    In one thread you were talking about four files that were not present in the upgraded project and RoboHelp was giving you grief about the four missing files. I suggested you create a totally new project to create them and copy the missing files to the upgraded project.
    I'm not sure I saw a reply from you as to whether you had tried this or not. As you still seem to be stuck, I'm guessing that this failed? Or that perhaps you failed to see it? I was curious if what I suggested was a possible workaround.
    Cheers... Rick

  • RH8 fails to upgrade RH7 project to RH8; any kluge to get it done

    Adobe RH Customer Service confirmed to me that RH8 is unable to upgrade an RH7 project. Is there solution that will not kill me, like starting a new project and importing topics en masse? (I don't necessarily know that that would work, but are there any other creative and effective solutions?

    That is nonsense. There has to be some misunderstanding as you certainly can upgrade projects. Did you perhaps ask if you can upgrade but still work in RH7? If you are simply talking about upgrading and then working in RH8, of course that can be done.
    Do you have any reference number?

  • RH8 importing RH7 project

    When trying to open a RH7 project in RH8 I get the following

    Try renaming the CPD before opening the project.
    If that fails, try renaming the CSS and copying the same name CSS from another project, then open the project.

  • My macmini won't output to any display since reinstalling and upgrading to maverick

    I recently wiped my macmini and when I reinstalled it, it upgraded to maverick.
    Now it won't output to any display. When I first installed it, I managed to get it to work once after turning it on and off several times.
    I've tried connecting to both a tv and a monitor, using both display port and hdmi connections.
    ive done all these:
    Reset the computer's parameter RAM.
    Reset the computer's PMU.
    If you have an Intel-based Mac mini, reset the SMC.
    Still nothing...
    does anyone have any suggestions?

    Does anything show when booting up?

  • Importing Word 2003 Docs into RH7 project

    We currently have RH7 (7.02.001) and use Word 2003. However, we have some groups that are using Window 7. When we try to import a Windows 7 document (.docx) there is no option on the import screen to select a .docx file. Do we need to upgrade to RH8? Is there a workaround in RH (other than saving the .docx as .doc)?

    Hi,
    In 7.0.3, you can import .doc and .docx. File | Import | Word document.

  • Opening a RH7 project in RH9 crashes RH9

    I recently had to upgrade to RH9 because RH7 was not compatible with Windows 7. I have had a pretty hard time upgrading a RH7 project to RH9, but followed the instructions to open the HHP file instead of the XPJ and saying No when asked to use the XPJ file instead. This worked a charm with one project.
    Now I am trying to open a different project the same way and RH9 crashes. No error message just my spinning cursor and when I click on the RH icon in my taskbar I get the windows message saying RH has stopped working.
    I tried deleting (by renaming) the CPD file and that didn't work either.
    Any suggestions? Thanks for your help.

    Project is ~500 files and 23MB on disk
    My machine is Win7 x64 quad core with 4GB of RAM and over 134 GB of free hard drive space.
    I have a backup - project is in SVN subversion source control
    If I load the XPJ I get the same crash behavior.
    Just before the crash, at the bottom of RH screen it says:
    loading topics...
    Sorting Keywords...
    Ready --> then CRASH

  • Upgrade from RH8 to RH10 formatting

    We upgraded from RH8 to RH10 and some of the topics are not formatted. (1484 topics) There is alot of extra spacing inbetween bullets and alpha numbering.
    For example:
    Enter a Business    Name, if applicable. This field is not required if you    are not establishing a business account and when you provide a    first and last name. The value entered is displayed on the customer's    invoice and is limited to 30 alphanumeric characters.
    What do I need to eliminate in the HTML code? And is there a way to programatically remove all the extra spaces?
    Thank-you,
    Michelle

    I think your problem is because you are generating to a network drive. You should generate to a local drive and publish to a network drive.
    I changed your start page in the project you sent to index.htm as I don't like having a start page with the same name as a topic and generated to a local drive.
    Works fine. Correct formatting.
    Also I would avoid spaces in a CSS file name.

  • TS1702 I tried to download the upgrade, now it won't install and I can not access my documents. It said Vi did not have enough space for the upgrade so I made room but still no luck.

    I tried to download the upgrade, now it won't install and I can not access my documents. It said Vi did not have enough space for the upgrade so I made room but still no luck. If I delete the ap and reinstall I will lose my stuff. Any ideas? It won't open so I can email it to myself.

    What upgrade are you trying to install? Your profile shows iOS 5.1.1, which is the current max iOS.

  • ["SOLVED"] PulseAudio - some applications won't output sound sometimes

    So, I have KDE 4 and PulseAudio installed, with VLC as Phonon's backend software.
    After startup, I often find that Skype won't output sound at all for seemingly random periods of time. This also often happens (sometimes simultaneously, but not necessarily) to Chromium. Pavucontrol and the KDE audio mixer, don't show anything useful at all in terms of the output of Skype and Chromium, and messing with master output in Pavucontrol doesn't affect anything.
    After a completely random period of time (usually a very long period of time), these applications start outputting sound again. It's very frustrating, and restarting the applications doesn't help whatsoever. While these two applications are affected, all other applications output sound perfectly.
    I don't even know. I've searched, but I haven't found any similar problems documented elsewhere. Any advice?
    EDIT: Solved, for now.

    I fixed it (for now, at least!)
    I ran the below command:
    $ cat /proc/asound/cards
    0 [U0x46d0x804 ]: USB-Audio - USB Device 0x46d:0x804
    USB Device 0x46d:0x804 at usb-0000:00:1a.0-1.2, high speed
    1 [MID ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel MID
    HDA Intel MID at 0xf9ff8000 irq 47
    2 [NVidia ]: HDA-Intel - HDA NVidia
    HDA NVidia at 0xfbd7c000 irq 17
    Basically, my USB webcam, which also acts as a microphone, was being treated as my default sound card. I changed this by creating a file in /etc/modprobe.d with the following:
    options snd-hda-intel index=0
    Which set my real sound card as default:
    $ cat /proc/asound/cards
    0 [MID ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel MID
    HDA Intel MID at 0xf9ff8000 irq 47
    1 [NVidia ]: HDA-Intel - HDA NVidia
    HDA NVidia at 0xfbd7c000 irq 17
    2 [U0x46d0x804 ]: USB-Audio - USB Device 0x46d:0x804
    USB Device 0x46d:0x804 at usb-0000:00:1a.0-1.2, high speed
    The problem isn't ENTIRELY fixed. Skype's still being a bit buggy, but at least Chromium is now playing sound, including in Flash media. Strangely enough, after playing a Flash video (e.g. on YouTube), Skype's sound seems to fix itself if it's defunct.

  • IPad2: After upgrad to iOS 8, video output lost left and right side

    I have a cable for my iPad2, once plugged in the bottom slot, it outputs video to TV Component port and audio to my amplifier. It's been working for years. After iOS 8 upgrade, I notice the video output lost left and right side. It's like
    [before iOS 8]     Apple iPad is a wonderful product for me.
    [after upgrade]             iPad is a wonderful product
    The "Apple" on the left, and "for me." on the right of screen is gone in output.

  • Macintosh IIsi won't output video

    I recently got my hands on a Macintosh IIsi that refuses to boot, I get the startup tone, the hard drive spins, and the indecator lights light up but it won't output video. I have tried multiple monitors and different display adapters without success. I want to know what the next step to fixing it

    zmclearan,
    Are you using a PC monitor and adapters or do you have access to an original Mac monitor?  When you say that it refuses to boot, is it just that you can not see the startup screen?  How long does the hard drive noise last?
    The next step is the process of elimination.  Check the PRAM battery first.  A dead battery will affect the video circuit in many machines.  Look online for batteries with free shipping.  If you go to Radio Shack, they will have replacement batteries that cost more than the computer.
    A way to avoid buying a battery is to do what is called a "warm boot."  You start the computer, listen for the chime, give it ten seconds, then hold down the command key + control key + the soft power key (the key at the top right hand of the keyboard or top center on some smaller keyboards).  If you hear the chime again then it restarted.  This gives the computer a fresh start with power supplied by the wall power and not the battery power.  For newer computers, you turn the computer on at the power button, turn it off and back on immediately.  That will wake up the video circuit on a Quadra 605 or a 6100 PPC.  I do not remember ever needing to do that on an 030 processor computer so the on-off-on trick may only be for the power supplies in the 605 form factor.
    If you can find a PDS to NUBUS adapter you could test to see if the onboard video is bad by using a NUBUS video card.  The IIsi uses built in RAM so it will not be a video RAM problem.  How much RAM do you have?  The chime means that you have some form of RAM.  Incommpatible RAM or no RAM will result in a sad musical sound.
    Your best alternative for testing older computers is to find a Mac user group in your area.  Someone will have spare parts, monitors and other resources.  Your video adapter may not be properly configured and the easiest way to test that is on another machine that you know works with your monitor.  Unfortunately, buying the battery is just a gamble.  It that does not fix it, you have just spent good money on a bad motherboard problem.  Post back with the name of a city near you and maybe we can find a user group to help out with parts.
    Jim~
