RoboHelp V8 Are working files the output files?

I have RH V4 and there are 2 version of the file the html pages. The one I edit and then the files created for the output. I have to save both versions to multiple places and I was wondering if they are now just one file/version.
Also, I am trying to convince my company on the benefits of spending $500 to upgrade, any compelling reasons?
I like that I it can have multiple projects. But that doesn't merit $500 in their book.

Welcome to our community
I'm assuming you mean to say that you have RoboHelp X4. Version 4 is really REALLY old!
Think of your RoboHelp files as you might think of ingredients in the kitchen. You have eggs, flour, milk and whatnot. These are the source ingredients. They are very much like your RoboHelp source files. You mix these ingredients and bake them to create OUTPUT, such as Chocolate Chip cookies, Bran Muffins or whatever. The cookies and muffins are very much like your RoboHelp OUTPUT files.
All versions of RoboHelp I've ever seen are able to have multiple projects. Whether you think it's worth the upgrade price is for only you to decide. If you are happy with the way RoboHelp works and it suits you. Then hold off. But there are many factors to consider.
Does the new version offer something you might find useful and save lots of time? If so, upgrading is a no brainer.
Are you finding that the output you create has suddenly began to have issues? Might be time to upgrade. For example, if you are creating WebHelp output and suddenly you see lots of folks that are all using the new Google Chrome browser, the older version of WebHelp doesn't know about Chrome. So the WebHelp may have issues. In that case you might strongly consider upgrading so your output handles newer browsers.

I have two editors working on FCPX in two different cities. Here is the question: How can a project timeline be shared if they are working from mirrored source files? Is there any easy way to share a project time line?

There an episode of MacBreak Studio where Steve Martin explains exactly how to share a project, while having two separate copies of footage and events:

Input file should be deleted only after the output file is successful.

Hi Experts,
Could you pleas solve the below issue.
In a file to file scenario, the input file will be picked from a directory location and after processing output file will be placed in the output directory location specified in the receiver communication channel.
In the sender communication channel for the scenario mentioned above, if the processing mode is given as delete, the input file will be delete as soon as the file was successfully read by the adapter, but this will not ensure that the file processing is complete and the output file is being created.
If we have a scenario in such as way that the input file should be deleted from the input folder only if the complete process is successful and the output is generated. how can we achieve this functionality?.
And one more thing if we got the successful output the output file should be placed in one folder. and the if the output file is having errors it should be placed in other folder.

Hi,
In Receiver communication channel I have used the below command in Run Operating System
.And I have kept the processing mode of sender communication channel as test.
cmd.exe: /C "del /Leela/test.xml"
You are running the comman line program configured in the receiver File Adapter,but in command line you mentioned the Sender File Folder , So i guess it's not getting processed.
Try this:
Try to run the command line in the Sender File Adapter Side
"Place this in " --> Run OS Command After Message Processing.
Hope this would work and get in parrallel with u r requirement.

Context-sensitive help - where is the CS topic folder in the output files?

I have created a FlashHelpPro help file in RoboHelp 7 HTML. In the project setup pane, I have Map ID'd my context-sensitive topics and linked them to their respective pages. I generated the project, but there is no folder containing the context-sensitive topics in the output files. As a result, the developer suggested that I need to create a separate folder in the Project Manager that contains all the context-sentitive topics. Is this actually the next step, or can the developer find what he needs elsewhere in the files?
I haven't seen anything about creating a separate folder in the Project Manager, which seems redundant as there is the 'Context-sensitive Help' folder already present in the Project Set-up. Do I need to create a separate folder, as suggested by the developer? If not, where can he find the context-sensitive files in the output? Thank you.

Hi,
What do you mean that the context sensitive topics are not in the output? RoboHelp generates your output and (in WebHelp, so the same should count for FlashHelp) puts the context sensitivity in cshdat_webhelp.htm. Your developer doesn't need to worry about this, he just has to get his call right.
For information on calling the help, see http://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/calling_webhelp/calling_webhelp.htm. It's for WebHelp but it should be the same for FlashHelp.
If your developer only wants to know which mapid's he has to call, you best give them your map files (the .h files).

Willam

Hi Srinath,
Thanks for your reply. It worked fine with 8.63 version.
Is there any other way to get it worked with out installing ghostscript.exe as the client doesnt want to instal any exe file on the server as it has broader impact on other instances also, can we acheive the conversion by copying the extracted zip files of ghostscript-8.63.tar.gz .....
We tried with extracted zip files by following the below settings
Refinery server--> Conversion settings --> Third-party Application Settings --> Distiller Engine --> options -->

Cannot see the output file in my first project

Hi,
I follow the instructions of Exercise in Chapter 4 of CAP-0501 to make the project. I wonder why I cannot see the output file in 'C:\CAPExercises\0501\exercises\Active_Project\Output'.
There are two things I would like you know.
1. I do not have the file 'prjFileXferInput.xml', but find and copy a xml file. Is this a problem? Does CAPS have any special requirement on schema for the input file?
2. Is '\' and '/' a problem for Java CAPS? I notice the book using 'C:/CAPExercises/0501/exercises/Active_Project/Output�, while it is 'C:\CAPExercises\0501\exercises\Active_Project\Output' on windows. I am working on a standalone Windows 2000 computer.
By the way, can anyone give me a confirmation that '/' and '\' is not a problem for Java CAPS, as the server or application take care of it? Is it true?
Thanks,

I am answering my own question. The project works.

Japanies characters are converting to # in output file in open dataset

Hi Experts,
I am trying to transfer data from my internal table to application server. When i use
Open Dataset e_file for output in text mode encoding NON-UNICODE ignoring convertion errors.
All Japanies and chines characters(double byte characters) are converting to "#" in output file. I have used set locale language commend also.Still same problem is there.
Could you please any one help me on this.
Thanks
Srinivas

hi
problem exporting text in hebrew
Similar kind of problem has been solved here.. check that link first
Use the class CL_ABAP_CONV_OUT_CE and use it to convert file from unicode to ascii.
After that you should call OPEN DATASET IN LEGACY MODE and write the file.
you have to find the Code Page format for japanese here..
Is your system Unicode enables, if not please check whether you have japanese installed on your system.
Run the program RSCINST in SE38 which throws a pop up if u work on a Unicode system and also shows what are the language packs currently installed on ur system.... if u dont have Japanese installed then u need to contact Basis People for installion of that language pack

Using `n how can i add two empty line (two carriage return), between these two lines in the output file?

hi friends
using `n how can i add two empty line (two carriage return), between these two lines in the output file?
PS C:\> $env:COMPUTERNAME | add-content c:\file.txt
PS C:\> $Env:USERDOMAIN | add-content c:\file.txt
i tested "$env:computername`n`n`n$env:userdomain" | add-content c:\file.txt but it results in
myPCMyDomain
but i wanted the contents of the output file be like this:
MyPC
#empty line here
#empty line here
MyDomain
i tested many other forms but didn't work.
thanks

I tried it, as well. The line breaks were respected in the PowerShell console, Programmer's Notepad, and Word; they weren't in Notepad.
You are using a Unicode file. Locale is what?
If you just want notepad compatible line breaks then do this:
del file.txt ; "$env:computername`r`n`r`n`r`n$env:userdomain" | add-content file.txt ;notepad file.txt
Look in hex to see that `n is ^L or 0xA and is only one character. CrLf is 0xD 0xA - two characters.
My programmers editors and VS all understand a single ^L as a line break so does PowerShell. Only DOS/Notepad and other utilitis don't understand this..
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

How to get the Output File Name as One of the Field Value From Payload

Hi All,
I want to get the Output file name as one of the Field value from payload.
Example:
Source XML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <ns0:MT_TEST xmlns:ns0="http://sample.com">
- <Header>
<NAME>Bopanna</NAME>
</Header>
</ns0:MT_TEST>
I want to get the Output file name as " Bopanna.xml"
Please suggest me on this.
Regards
Bopanna

Hi,
There are couple of links already available for this. Just for info see the below details,
The Output file name could be used from the field value of payload. For this you need to use the UDF DynamicFile name with below code,
// Description: Function to create dynamic Filename
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File" , "FileName");
conf.put(key,a);
return "";
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File" , "FileName");
conf.put(key,a);
return "";
With this udf map it with the MessageType as
(File Name field from Payload) > DynamicFileConfiguration>MTReceiver
Thanks

Why is the output file jerky ?

Hi there,
I have AE CS5 on my Mac. My system is 27" iMac core i5 with 12 GB RAM DDR3 1333 MHz with quad core.
I rendered a 40 seconds clip with an earth spinning.
I output it to mov format in 1920 x 1080.
When I did a RAM preview, it was fine & the earth was spinning smoothly.
But the output file (in mov) - (I did thru Composition > Make movie) when I play using QuickTime player is jerky at 20th Sec to 29th sec.
I then import this mov file into Final Cut, it look stuck in the Viewer but was perfect on the Canvas.
When I render in Final Cut, the output file as mov and use the same Quick Time player to play it & it is perfect.
Can I know what is the reason that it is not working in Quick Time the first time when it was fresh out from AE ?
Thank you.
Cheers

The default render settings use Quicktime Animation codec at best quality. These files will not playback smoothly because the data rate is too high for the hard drives to keep up with. The animation codec is a lossless codec designed not designed for playback.
Final Cut uses compressed codecs designed for playback as the default. I'd suggest that you open up the help files (F1) and read the entire section on Rendering and Exporting (link).

I have this following problem in Adobe Premiere Elements 11: Error of export: You don't have permissions to create or delete the output file.

Hey guys,
I have this following problem:
When i export my movie to my desktop from premiere elements 11 it fails and says "Error of export: You are not permitted to create or delete the output file."
This is the first time i had this problem.
I have no ideas to solve this problem ... I don't found it on this page neither in the whole web -.-
I look forward to get requests

S
QuickTime is a requirement for Premiere Elements (any version). Please download and install it so that we can continue this troubleshooting. Among other things, without QuickTime installed, you will not have QuickTime presets in Publish+Share and will not have available to you codecs supplied by that player.
Please right click the Premiere Elements 11 desktop icon and apply Run As Administrator. Please review computer permissions..
In the meanwhile, please reply to all the questions, including
What is the description for your export choice and does it make a difference if your Export Save In location is the desktop or to Video Folder in Documents?
What is a description of your computer resources?
Please consider and supply details need to help us help you.
We want you to succeed.
Thank you.

Exe file not producing the output files

Could anyone please help me with my exe file. I have an exe file "exeFile" which takes more than one file as input from the source "c:/files" and produces some files as output into the destination "c:/files". Both my source and destination is same. My code given below is neither showing any error nor outputting any files. My code is:
private static void compilingFiles() throws IOException
 String FirstParam = "C:/files";
 String SecondParam = "C:/files";
 Process proc =Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start /MIN C:/files/exeFile " + FirstParam, (String[])null, new File(SecondParam));
}

After going through The reference, I modified my code as under. My first exe file "tex" is doing the necessary as before, that is producing the output files to the destination, but the second exe file "fi2t1" is not producing the necessary output.
My output after running this file is:
<ERROR>
</ERROR>
Process exitValue1: 0
<ERROR>
</ERROR>
Process exitValue2: 0
<ERROR>
</ERROR>
Process exitValue1: 0
<ERROR>
</ERROR>
Process exitValue2: 0
<ERROR>
</ERROR>
Process exitValue1: 0
<ERROR>
</ERROR>
Process exitValue2: 0
So as per The reference, I think my code is right - "So, MediocreExecJavac works and produces an exit value of 2. Normally, an exit value of 0 indicates success; any nonzero value indicates an error.".
So please tell me where am I wrong. My code is:
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.util.*;
public class FontDriverCompile
 public FontDriverCompile()
 void compileFile(File newFile, String renameSub, File outputfile) throws IOException
 String FirstParam = "C:\\Temp\\sample\\font-driver.tex";
 String FirstParam2 = "C:\\Temp\\sample";
 String SecondParam = "C:\\Temp\\sample";
 try
 Process proc1 =Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start /MIN C:/Temp/sample/tex " + FirstParam, (String[])null, new File(SecondParam));
 InputStream stderr = proc1.getErrorStream();
 InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(stderr);
