Custom Bullets in Frame to RoboHelp Projects
August 9, 2011 | By Matt Sullivan
Mapping bullets from FrameMaker to RoboHelp via TCS

Thanks to Peter Grainge for pointing me toward an Adobe Forum post recently.

Like many, the user was having difficulty matching the RH formatting that they were so happy with in FM.

As I’ve said many times, RH maps content, not formatting. To get specific formatting in HTML, you will likely need to have some css knowledge and a little patience. CSS takes practice. Formatting for linked projects is a specific skill, just like css formatting for mass email, or for cross browser and cross format compatibility.

Editing Captivate Audio With Soundbooth

Editing Captivate Audio With Soundbooth

Recently I had an audio clip that was spread across multiple slides... I was lucky enough to find a useable version of a split word in the audio, but couldn't get Captivate to splice the audio without either an audible stutter in the word, or without a fairly large "pop" at the point of the splice. Read on to see how I solved it!It's pretty common knowledge that you can edit backgrounds in Captivate using Photoshop, right? (Just nod your head up & down if you're not sure, then right click on a background image in your library to check it out...)And if you're lucky enough to have Adobe Soundbooth installed as part of the Adobe eLearning Suite or otherwise, you can do the same thing with audio as well.

Finding and fixing paragraph overrides in FrameMaker 10

Locating overrides

While teaching a FrameMaker 10 class today, I was reminded that the Find/Change feature now includes the option to search for Paragraph Character and Table format overrides. This is a great way to identify inconsistencies in your document’s formatting.The option to search for overrides is new to FrameMaker 10, but for those of you not yet using FrameMaker 10, you can still easily remove formatting inconsistencies in any version of FrameMaker (or at least back to Frame 5.0!)

An overview of FrameMaker and RoboHelp integration
August 9, 2011 | By Matt Sullivan

Recently I responded to a post on the LinkedIn Friends of FrameMaker group. The poster was inquiring on the state of the integration between RoboHelp and FrameMaker. Here’s the relevant part of that post:

I've used the conversion in all three versions of TCS. It's definitely gotten better with each subsequent version.
