Trouble understanding RH customization when linking FM files

Is there a video that will help with this, particularly creating and customizing a single CSS for use with my work? I also would like to have an idea of the best workflow.
Here is what I am doing and some issues:
Open RH.
Click File > New > Project.
What I really want is a bunch of HTML files with known filenames. I know FM 12 can do this without RH, but I want to work this out now so I can take this in a better direction. Anyway, I click Application Help in Project Type.
Click the Import tab in the New Project dialog box.
Select FrameMaker Documents as the Import Type, and click OK.
Select my FrameMaker .book file, and click Open.
Enter a title for the project, file name for the project (left default), and location for the project.
Click Finish.
At this point, my multi-FM-file .book project hangs and never finishes. If I am using a single-FM-file .book project, though, the following happens:
The Import dialog box opens.
In the FrameMaker Document area, click Edit. Some scanning happens, and the Conversion Settings dialog box opens.
Edit paragraph settings.
Find those paragraphs I don't want output for and select the Exclude from output check box, such as Footer.
Set each of my four Bulletn styles to Multilevel list. Bullet1, Bullet2, Bullet3, and Bullet4 styles represent decreasing levels of subbulleted lists.
Set my eight Stepsn styles to Multilevel list. Steps1, Steps2, Steps3, and Steps4 styles represent decreasing levels of subnumbered lists (1, a, I, i). Each of these styles has a corresponding First style that sets the numbering to 1, such as Steps1First.
Set up cross reference settings to remove page numbers.
Set the default format for Image to .png.
Leave Character, and Other settings alone.
Click OK and Next.
Leave the Table of Contents, Index, and Glossary Settings turned off.
Click Finish. Some scanning happens and a result is created.
Some issues.
While Mutilevel Numbering creates 4 appropriate levels of bullets based on my styles, it only creates 3 of 4 levels of numbered lists. Levels 3 and 4 are presented identically by RH. How did this happen and how do I fix it.
Indented body tags are not correct. I can fix this in the CSS. But, then, how do I create and make sure my project uses a new CSS?
How do I create a delivery package for this? I see what I have in project manager, and want to create a folder that contains my output, that is, HTML, PNG, and CSS files that support my project so I can move these to the target CD or delivery mechanism?
I have HTML and CSS buried within individual folders with the respective FM source. How do I get these HTML files and images out, and mate them to one and only one CSS for delivery?
Thoughts?
Sean

Thanks. I will choose Blank Project  instead if Application from now on, though I understand that is erased by choosing FM files. I really just want compliant HTML 5 output with a single CSS file that I can deploy with linked files, which will be PNGs.
So, can you  help with my customization questions?
Also, another issue I have run into is spacing in the HTML around run-in headings. This is caused by RH adding an extra blank paragraph with a non-breaking space, as show in the following code. I don't need this empty paragraph added, and it was not in the FM source. Thoughts?
<p class="FM_GlossaryTerm">Term Name Here as a runin in FrameMaker.</p>
<p class="FM_GlossaryTerm">&#160;</p>  //<-- This line added in RH conversion, and I don't want it.
<p class="FM_GlossaryDefinition">Term definition paragraph here.</p>
Cheers,
Sean

  • Hyperlink Tool Not Working Properly When Linking To Files or Adding URLs?

    Has anyone run into the issue when trying to Enable Hyperlinks where once you have enabled and entered the URL or selected the file you wish to link to, the tool box will refresh the moment you move your mouse or touch the track-pad, loosing all your progress?  Has happened to me a number of times and wanted to know if there was a work around for this. 

    I had the same issue - I was pulling my hair out - I even called the new ORACLE Support. The Resolve to this was based on the firewalls of my company's security suite. I found that when I was directly wired to the network - I was unable to use the hyperlink tool - however if I was on the WI-FI network the hyperlink tool was unaffected. I hope this helps with your particular situation as well -let me know.
    Thanks

  • I have always had trouble (including error messages)when opening pdf files from a website within Firefox

    More often than not when I open a pdf file from within Firefox the file fails to open (often you get an error message. "there was an error processing page. A file I/O error has ocurred"). Sometimes the file downloads but is only white pages. I usually then right click the file and save it to my desktop but this is cumbersom!

    Ok two things based on the crash report and the steps you took right before the crash:
    # Try to disable scrolling acceleration and restart Firefox. Does it continue to crash?
    # Try Safe Mode and do the same task as above with email and the pdf [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
    # Also pdf.js may be helpful to read pdfs in the meantime. You can change the default reader in the Preferences/Options > Application menu of Firefox.
    # Try to clear out the downloads folder and update flash to version 14 (that should do it)
    IF it crashes again please also provide the new crash signatures and we can take a look :-) Sorry for the crashing :-(

  • Linking KN9 files together using hyperlinks, fades to black

    When linking KN9 files together using hyperlinks, I press play the document being linked to fades in, then out to a black screen and after a couple of seconds returns to the files open files on my desktop.
    I've checked all the setting and it even does it on 2 empty pages I tested with no transitions or document settings.
    If I open both document before pressing play it's OK but because I have several large files being linked together I dont want to have to open all the files before presenting to clients etc.
    Thanks!

    The History
    I reported the hyperlinking problem over a year ago when I updated Keynote from version 5.0.5 to version 5.1. According to the Apple tech that I wroked with at that time the Apple engineers had reproduced the issue and had put it on the fix list (Case 235638615). I then worked with Apple in December 2011 to test a version that supposedly fixed the problem, but did not, so Apple sent me a data logging monitor program which I ran and sent back. The Apple tech asked me to be patient as it might take awhile for the Apple engineers to fix the issue. When version 5.2 came out I reran my testing suite of presentations and found that the hyperlinking issue had still not been fixed. I have tried to contact Apple about my case since July 26th - my emails to the Apple tech with whom I worked back in December bounce back as undeliverable and he does not answer his phone (I have left messages with no replies) plus when I try to use Apple support to follow up on the case, all I get is a message to contact my Apple tech (Doh!). If Apple techs or Apple engineers watch the forums I hope they look into unresolved Case 235638615.
    The Workaround
    Hyperlinking worked fine with 5.0.5 - the .key files would load and display and did not have to be preloaded prior to runing the linked presentations. Version 5.1 through the current version 5.2 require all of the linked presentations to be preloaded prior to running them. Prior to the current version of Lion, I was able to manually run version 5.0.5 to successfully run my system of 32 presentations. The only downsides were that I could not use any transitions or animations introduced with version 5.1 and I had to force quit Keynote 5.0.5. However, when I tried that solution this month, it would not work. So I created an Automator app to load the appropriate subset of presentations for each day of the five day class and used version 5.2. Everything went okay with preloaded presentations.
    I love using Keynote and do not want to go back to PowerPoint, so I hope Apple fixes this issue. I think we have been more than patient with the Apple engineers.

  • How to hide the file name (the bizarre number assigned by the camera) when exporting an image version in aperture from an album. Pl understand I want to keep the file name in the project library version.

    how to hide the file name (the bizarre number assigned by the camera) when exporting an image version in aperture from an album. Pl understand I want to keep the file name in the project library version.

    Within Aperture you have Images, which are constructed on-the-fly from two files (the Master and the Version).  You get an image-format file _only_ when you export an Image.  You select the file name (usually a scheme) when you create an image-format file (that is, when you export).  Look under "Aperture→Presets→File Naming" for built-in Presets.  You can, of course, create your own or customize any provided.
    The Preset is applied to only the file newly created by your "export" command.  It is not applied to the Image in Aperture (unless you rename your Versions or your Masters).

  • I am trying to organize a zip file with a bunch of links and files. But when I drag an image file to a folder, it always "Snaps to grid" instead of just landing where I put it.

    I am trying to organize a zip file with a bunch of links and files. But when I drag an image file to a folder, it always "Snaps to grid" instead of just landing where I put it. All of the files are going into the same zip file but I want them visually in the space that I put them and not at the bottom of the snap to grid folder location they are looking like.  I am trying to  drag and drop files in groups so that I can group them for now, but image files always do their own "sort by" when I drag them from my web pages. Links don't do it though.  I tried resetting the folder, and deleting the DS files. No luck.

  • Acrobat X 10.02 crashes when converting Word 2007 document wiht linked Visio file.

    Acrobat X 10.02 crashes when converting Word 2007 document with linked Visio file and causes a C++ runtime error in Word and crashes Word.
    To see the behavior create a short Word 2007 document with a linked Visio file (e.g., create a Visio file with one box and text and insert it as a link into a Word docx).
    No problem in Acrobat 9

    There may be some of an issue with AA X on this, but part of the blame probably goes to MS also. I would suggest you simply clip the graphic from VISIO as a vector graphic (EMF will be used by default) and not do the link and do not embed the VISIO object. The linking and use of embedded objects in WORD 2007 seems to have been a major problem and is mostly a MS issue.

  • Holding a table syle when an excel file is linked

    hello,
    I am playing around with placing excel files in an InDesign document as a linked file, so that someone can update the info in excel, and I can update the indesign file.
    Problem is, the excel file had some basic coloring and borders already set. When I import that file and keep the formatting, I make a table style out of it. I usually end up making the table style a lot nicer than what I get.
    The problem is, when I update the excel file it goes back to the original style, and even if I try to apply my new table style again, it doesn't work?
    Is there a better way to do this? or am I just missing something?
    thanks
    babs

    So thats basically saying that at most, there can only be 2 common errors you are most likely to encounter when opening a file (an Excel file in this case and using Active X), 1 is if the file can't be found for whatever reason and the other if the file is already open? I guess if thats the case then the idea you suggested will be useful but am just thinking whether thats good coding or not because I dont want any other error that I have not looked out for to pop up when least expected when dealing with the file, so basically there seems to be no specific way of determing whether the file is currently open or not programatically?
    How does windows know then if a shared file is currently open or not then, what does it use or is this question venturing into de
    ep waters?

  • There is a missing letter of Path name or file name when vivado SDK linking object files

    I used vivado SDK 2014.3 to complie the third source code and could get *.o files. But when linking them, there was an error to show that No such file or directory. I found that there was lack of letter in path name of object file.  It's a SDK bug or I don't set up correctly? 
    Thank you for an early answer.

    I tried it in vivado SDK 2015.1, but there was still the same problem. And I found that it was successful if only importing a small part of source code. What is the reason for this situation?

  • RoboHelp 11 for TSC 5 hangs when linking to FrameMaker 12 files

    I have TCS5, RH11, FM12, all patched up.
    I have a FM book that comprises only FM files and only one of those FM files has any images; the rest just have text that uses paragraph and character styles.
    When I do the following, RH just hangs and I have to end task on it. I have given RH several hours, but the problem never resolves well. FM and all other applications except Google Chrome are closed when I do this.
    1) Open RoboHelp.
    2) Click File > New > Project.
    3) Choose Application Help and click OK.
    4) Enter appropriate content in the New Project Wizard and click Finish.
    5) In RoboHelp, click File > Link > FrameMaker document.
    6) Select either  the book file OR an individual fm file; experience shows what happens is the same either way.
    7) Click Open.
    At this point, the Scanning dialog box opens and animations of files moving left to right and being scanned displays. This never goes away. RoboHelp is done for.
    How can I link FrameMaker files to a new project?

    Hi,
    There was nothing to update in FM, no generated lists, etc. Book opened fine as did all the FMs, though. Images in only one place, but PNGs nothing weird. Removed and reinstalled TSC 3 times. Am going to try importing.
