Single sourcing tools for paper and html help

Hi
Today I started a new job where html help is made in RoboHelp
and the paper manual is made in Word. Both are translated to 5
languages, so the translators also use Word and RoboHelp.
Unfortunately there is no single sourcing at all.
I want to introduce single-sourcing so that I use the same
source for output to html help and paper.
I am used to FrameMaker for paper output and the WebWorks
Publisher plugin for the html help output.
If I were alone I might use FrameMaker and Madcap Blaze. I
think however that I can introduce one but not two new tools for
the 5 translators.
What Is your suggestion? Which tools should I use? Word
hasn't the conditional text feature I need. I don't belive that
RoboHelp can create a Word output which lives up to the Company
design standards. Besides, will Robohelp live, does it works under
Window Vista?

Hi Polle2. First of all there are many users on these forums
who use RH to single source with no problems. Sure RH single
sourcing requires a little thought and set-up - just like most our
"true single source" tools. There's a new version of RH planned
(version X6) and currently in beta test but we won't know what
included in it until it's formally released.
As far as product comparisons are concerned, I've not used
Madcap Blaze and neither has anyone else as I believe it's not
released yet. My two penneth worth is you are right to go down the
single sourcing line and that RH - and other tools - could all fit
the bill. It all depends on which one fits your specific
needs.

  • Does EBS license include tools for reporting and extracting data (queries)

    Hello,
    I'm recommending Oracle EBS to a customer and I need to mention what tools for reporting and extracting data (queries) are included in a Oracle EBS license.
    I hope you can help me with that information, or at least with providing me the place where I can get the info.
    Thanks in advance,
    A/P Sergio Maestri

    Hi,
    Thanks, I think the same ... but the customer asked me about it ... I supose my answer will be that he can use Reports Builder for reporting and Toad or PLSQL Developer to access to the database and make queries ...
    What about XML Publisher ? ...it can be used to make reports against an Oracle EBS database and integrate them into the EBS Application ?I believe you need a developer license to use Oracle Developer (Forms/Reports) for customizing/creating reports.

    A year or so ago I had turned on a toolbar that sat at the top with the other toolbar, and had many tools for development and checking of websites. You could turn Java on/off, javascript on/off, turn on source view, and many other things. Now I cant find that toolbar. All that I can find now turns on a panel in the lower half of the window that probably does all the same stuff, but it takes up much more room. Where did that toolbar go? or was it an add-on or plug-in?

    It sounds like you may be referring to the Web Developer add-on.

  • Source tables for forms and tabular forms must have a primary key.

    Why does HTML DB 2.0 return the message
    "Source tables for forms and tabular forms must have a primary key."
    when trying to generate a "Report and Form" page based on a view defined like "create view <applicationschema>.a as select * from <sourceschema>.b" ?
    It should be possible for HTML DB to "see" that the table "<sourceschema>.b" already has a primary key.
    bw - Christian

    Christian,
    In the create application wizard, when creating form or tabular form pages, you can only use tables with primary keys, and not views, because that wizard is automatically deriving the primary key from the table definition. If you want to build forms on views or tables without a primary key, you need to use one of the create form wizards while working on an existing application. Those wizards allow you to pick your own column as a primary key column.

    First, the plist is a by product of the Apple development process just like the plist is, thus you need to get this from the developer.
    Second, you don't have a choice. Getting ipas for Apple store apps is nearly impossible -- you can't just download them from the Apple store and use them. You can try to ask the developer for them but developers are very reluctant to do this. I can guarantee
    you that you won't get the ipa for Outlook from Microsoft and nearly all other developers have the same reluctance. There is no reason for them to give them to you -- the store offers many, many advantages for developers/publishers of the apps that go away
    completely if they give out the ipa.
    Why don't you want to install apps from the store?
    Regardless, as mentioned, you really don't have a choice.

  • Airplane help with Webhelp and HTML Help

    Hi. We are generating 2 outputs using Robohelp v.6.0: HTML
    Help and WebHelp. Standalone they both work fine. The context
    sensitive .chm works too. Problems are:
    1.) the primary help (Webhelp) does not appear - there isn't
    any error msg either.
    2.) when an invalid url is used the secondary help file does
    appear (HTML help). But this doesn't happen with the correct url of
    the primary help - Webhelp
    Isn't there supposed to be a reference to the mapping in the
    <head> of each htm file?
    Can anyone help on this topic? many thanks!

    First, move the styles from the form generator to the <head> of your document.  Otherwise there is a possibility browsers could ignore the invalid code.
    Then move your form div inside the banner div and set the attribute float:right; in your CSS for the form div.  Then you should be good to go.

  • How do I restore my preferred icon for .htm and .html files? search keyword axolotl

    When I made Firefox 3.6.2 my default browser, it changed the icons for my .htm & .html files to the fox&globe symbol - how do I change back to my old red dragon symbol? Folder options doesn't work, the icon for the file type changes in folder options, but has no effect on the icon displayed by Windows XP Explorer. Changing registry entries for DefaultIcon from ...\firefox.exe,1 to ....\mozilla.ico also failed, the WxExplorer icons changed to a generic symbol. Thanks, [email protected]
    search keyword axolotl

    With the help of information from user, ptressel, in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1032154#answer-673322 a post here about the existence of sessionstore.js when version 33 was released], I was able to easily recover my tabs and tab groups as follows:
    # close Firefox and, perhaps, allow a few seconds (30s?) for any final closing of files;
    # check to see if you have a sessionstore.js file in your profile folder, named like the one I documented in my original post above;
    # if it is not timestamped prior to the discovery of your problem, open the sessionstore-backups folder;
    # check if the recovery.js file is suitably timestamped and, if not, the recovery.bak.
    # At this point, you are likely to find that none of them are prior to your problem occuring. If so, open your backups of this folder and go through steps 2-4 to find a file prior to your problem occuring.
    # When you find a file, copy it to the root of your current profile folder and name it, "sessionstore.js"
    # Open Firefox. Mine opened up as desired.
    This is a Windows solution. Sorry I can't comment on other platforms, but I'd bet that as this is just a file copy and renaming, it is likely the same.
    For Windows users, you may find you need to sign out and login as an administrator in order to access the backups. You need not logoff your standard account, but do have Firefox closed as described above.
    Hope that helps.

  • Using a single Content server for DMS and also for Archive link documents

    Hi,
    We have Planned for a single content server for managing the documents in DMS, parallelly as DMS Standard SAP objects are not available for all SAP transactions, i have proposed for making use of SAP Archivelink funtionality to maintain the documentations where Std SAP DMS does not provide a Solution.
    so here the question is
    can a single content server be used as a content repository for Both DMS and archivelink,
    can any one having done this pls state if it is possible to create different or Many Content repositories for DMS, Archive link in the same server,
    is this a virtual creation or can we assign each repository a specific storage space which it should not exceed.
    Thanks and regards
    Sathish

    Hi sathish,
    -- Through the ArchiveLink docuemnt Management interface, an SAP sytem can use various content servers as storage media. similarly, one contnent server can be used by multiple SAP systems.
    -- A Content server always has a single database assigned to it. A database can therefore be used by only one content server.
    -- A databse is split into as many repositories as necessary. The design of the repository is mapped in the SAP system.A repository contains documents.
    Depending on your requirements,(if u have limited documents or with low requirements)  you can use the same content server for both DMS and Archivelink.
    The number of documents stored on the content server is limited only by the size of the database.
    Its better to have an external content server for archiving purpose, if your database size is increasing. Since the archiving systems storage is not dependent on the database.
    U can also refer to the below thread :
    How to Archive SAP DMS Data?
    hope this helps....
