Setting chapter and sections after importing text document?

I imported a 120-page Word document in Author. The original was 10 chapters and related sections. It came in as a single long chapter. Now I want to manually select a page and set it to be chapter 2, chapter 3, etc., and likewise for selecting a page and setting it to section 2-1, section 2-2, etc.
I can't see how to do this. Adding a chapter always puts it at the end of my 120 pages. If I insert a blank page, I can't set it to be a chapter or section.
Am I missing something, or am I using an incorrect workflow?
Any advice gratefully received.

Not able to edit the words "chapter" and "section" in the document workflow

Hi all,
I would like to point out something that could be a bug. The 2 words "chapter" and "section" are not editable in the document workflow: I can just change the title for each chapter and the title for each section, but I am not able to change the words "chapter" and "section".
The problem is, iBooks Author is using the words "chapter" and "section" (heading 1) to build the TOC: if I am using iBooks Author in English, but I am writing a text in French, I am not able to change "Chapter" into "Chapitre". The only way to go, what I found out, is to close the app, change the OSX Lion system language, log out, re-open iBooks Author and start a new book: opening an English book in the French version of iBooks Author will not change automatically the language in the workflow.
Does anybody has a trick to edit the words "chapter" and "section"?
Best regards,
Mauro

Hi KT,
Thank you, but it's still in english.
I changed to "only number", then wrote the word "chapter" in french or italian or german before the number, then deleted the preview on the iPad and made a new preview, I still have the same result: the word "chapter" is still in the language of the app.
To be clear: I am writing a text using iBooks Author in italian. I have to translate the same text in french, the fastest way would be to rework the italian version (I already have all the multimedia stuff inside). I changed the italian word "Capitolo" (chapter) to the french one "Chapitre" (using the advices of AodhFFXI and K T). And for the first slide of the chapter that's fine.
But if I "close down" the first chapter slide or if I click on the top left botton to go to the chapter TOC, there I still have the word in italian, even if the word has been deleted in the layout:

Trouble with CHM Search & Index after Importing Word Document

Greetings,
I have recently inherited all things RoboHelp at work, but the last person to work with our projects left 6 months ago. I received a brief overview of how our CHM files were generated from the same word document in RH HTML 7.
Currently, I am using RoboHelp HTML 9, but am having trouble with the Index and Search functionality from an imported Word 2003 (.doc) file. During my import, only a single topic is created and named after the source document. I believe this may be the root of my problems, but haven't had much luck with a solution.
I have stumbled my way through setting after setting, but feel I am missing something obvious. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ken
Background:
Our source documents have a working TOC and Heading 1-3 structure. When creating a new project and importing the document, the TOC is imported correctly. The TOC navigations links seem to function correctly.
I have used the Smart Index Wizard to find new keywords from topic titles and topic text. Unfortunately it seems the import only creates a single topic named after the source word document and therefore associates all keywords with the single topic. when trying to navigate the index after the CHM is generated, all links simply reference the beginning of the document.
When using the search feature in the CHM, only a single result is returned for any search words. This result is always the single topic as described above. The results link always returns you to the start of the document but does highlight the keyword throughout the document.

When you import there is an Advanced button in one of the dialogs. Click that and you will be able to Paginate against chosen styles. That will break your document into topics.

AGMac-Change "Chapter" and "Section" concepts...

Hello,
I started a new book in iBooks Author 2.0 and I renamed the chapter header in my language (Greek)...
In any iBooks document there are also the concepts of "Chapter" and "Section"...
For example in the "Table of contents" exists at the top "Chapter 1"...
How can I change the concept "Chapter" in the iBooks document in order to use it translated in my language in all the appearances in the book? I need the same for the "Section" also...
Thank you for your time and help...

After importing word document in RH 9, why does the position of image changes

Hi All,
I have a document which i need to import in RH9. However when i imported the document, the position of the images on my first page changed.
i read several discussion, but could nt get any relevant suggestion.
the first page of my document has company logo and a text box on its left but when i am importing, the image is displayed separately and text box is displayed after the image. the first page is my cover page thats the reason it has text box.
Now can anyone please tell me how i can club the text box and image on a single htm.Robohelp also converts the text box and its data to an image format.
Thanks for your time and consideration

Hi there
As you have seen, RoboHelp doesn't understand how to create the layers you are wanting to achieve the effect in Word. It simply brings the images in as separate objects.
Basically there are two approaches you might consider.
You could insert Positioned Text Boxes and configure them to present the images as you want. If you take this approach, you will likely find yourself struggling to maintain the positioning consistently as well as noticing text flow issues. Personally, I'd avoid that approach.
The other approach involves displaying the images in your Word document so that you see them as intended, then screen capture so you grab the combined image. Then save that combined image and use it instead of the separate images in RoboHelp. This is the approach I'd suggest and that I use myself.
Cheers... Rick

Book Chapter and Section Numbering

Hi,
I've been through the tutorials and cannot seem to find a solution to my problem. Maybe I'm missing something simple here. Basically, I'm writing a book and want each chapter in a separate document with contiguous section numbering. e.g.
Document 1.
Chapter 1
   Section 1.1
       Section 1.1.1
       Section 1.1.2
            Section 1.1.2.1
   Section 1.2
       Section 1.2.1
       Section 1.2.2
Document 2.
Chapter 2
   Section 2.1
       Section 2.1.1
       Section 2.1.2
            Section 2.1.2.1
   Section 2.2
       Section 2.2.1
       Section 2.2.2
If I define the Chapter as a Section heading with a level 1 hierarchy and each sub-section with level 2, 3, 4, etc hierarchy, the above works fine within each document, but section numbering always stays at 1 in each document and doesn't increment when I make the book i.e all chapters remain at Chapter 1 within each document.
If I use the Chapter text variable, chapter numbering updates, but the section numbering isn't linked to the chapter number e.g. Section 2.1 in document 2 now becomes Section 0.1, since there is now no level 1 Section heading defined.
Please help,
Thanks.

Hello Eugene,
Thank you for the response. I actually ended up defining the Chapter as a level 1 section in Bullets and Numbering, but made it a new list called Section which is continuous across documents in the book.
This works great. Everytime a new chapter is added, numbering needs to be updated in the book panel.

File names after importing word document

I'm creating webhelp by importing word document. My help is in two languages and yes i have two word documents. To keep the html filenames same for every same topic in english and arabic. I change the file names. Now i want save this setting for the project so while importing the documents again I should be able to reuse this changing filenames. So that it can be life saver for me by not repeating to change the filenames again.

Thinking about this some more, I don't think the feature will do what you want. The filename and any formula will work according to how you paginate and will create a filename based on the heading. That will, I assume, differ from language to language.
The only thing I can think of experimenting with is to have the headings in language one in all documents with the other language being below but not as a heading. Post import you could amend the Topic Title and Topic Heading but leave the filename. It's klunky but the best I can think of right now.

Importing text document?

I am attempting to import a text document into iMovie, to transition from a person to the document. I have tried dropping in a pdf and also a jpg. The resolution in the movie looks terrible. Any tips or tricks on how to import a text document that looks ok?
Thanks in advance!

Thank you for the answers so far... I had originally intended to save the person speaking in quicktime format. I wanted to add the images in between the clips of the speaker. I figured iMovie was the way to go.
I guess basically like a newscast, I will have commentary and video by a live person, then while they are still speaking it will show the paperwork with the areas of interest circled, then go back to the video of the person speaking.
Is this more of an application for keynote? I wanted the final product to be stand alone so people can view it from our company server. (computer viewing only)
thanks!

Merge JPEG and RAW after import from iPhoto

Hi,
camera is set to shoot JPEG + RAW, iPhoto manages after import from camera as two separate files.
I want to transition from iPhoto to Aperture.
After importing from iPhoto into Aperture, is there any chance to merge the files in a way similar to how Aperture merges jpeg + raw when importing directly from camera?
Thx
Axel

When I click on Faces, it's empty, the import from iPhoto forget to import faces?
Hello Kris,
How did you imort from iPhoto? If you import using the Aperture Apllication menu
File -> Import -> iPh.oto Library
then all your Faces should be transferred from iPhoto.
Which of the two buttons in Aperture do you use to show your "Faces"? There is the "Faces" button in the Library panel and the "Faces" Button in the Toolbar. Both behave differently. The "Faces" button in the Library panel will reveal all faces, whereas the "Faces" Button in the Toolbar will only show the faces detected in the in the currently selected item (folder, project). So it may appear that faces are missing, even if they are included in the Aperture Library.
Regards
Léonie

Import text document as layer?

Is there a way to import/open a text document (ie. .doc, txt, html, etc) into photoshop, which will retain the text layer?
I know it’s possible to simply copy and paste text from a Word document into a PS text layer, but can this be done through a script?
Any ideas how to achieve this?
thanks
jeff

Thanks for the response
Not a programmer myself to use Bridge Talk, But I like the idea of utilizing smart objects as a means for integrating between programs.
Currently I’m copying/pasting word text into a PS text layer, (which reformats this to the PS settings (which is great))… and, this works quite seamlessly, I was curious to see if this could or had been implemented as an import script.
Thanks.

How can you detect all words and phrases in a text document using java?

Is there some java API which would help me extract all words, multi-word phrases, punctuations in an English text document? I would also like to get the order in which they appear with sentence detection. I've been searching for this in java NLP packages, but haven't found anything yet.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ajith

I don't understand what you actually want, but if your on about having a file and splitting it up into sentences then i would look into either psudocode or parsing strings, theres not a java api as far as i know that does anything like you want, you would have to write it yourself or find a project someone else has made.

HT1551 Stuck on "setting date and time" after a system upgrade

I have tried everything recommended including disconnecting power. Just keeps churning on setting date and time.

I believe this is a connectivity issue.
First, make sure you're connected properly via either wi-fi or ethernet.
When setting up Apple TVs for my school district deployment, we had this issue with units connected via Wi-Fi. We resolved this problem by creating firewall exceptions.
If you're setting up a unit for home, you could try creating exceptions in your router for the Apple TV. Alternatively (to test), you could set your Apple TV as the 'DMZ' device which should expose it sufficiently to see if your networking is getting in the way.

Apple stays on setting time and date after restore

apple tv stays on loading setting time and date

It is having trouble connecting to the network. Make sure location is set correctly. DNS should be on automatic (settings - general - network). If on wifi try ethernet.
