Subject:Converting Word Winhelp files to FrameMaker 5.5.6 From:"Gemmell,Dal" <Dal_Gemmell -at- EMAIL -dot- SYSCOM -dot- COM -dot- TW> Date:Mon, 10 May 1999 15:11:32 +0800
Sorry about the cross-post.
Platform: Windows 98, Pentium II 128MB RAM
Frame Version: English, 5.5.6
Problem:
Does anyone have any experience with converting Winhelp RTF help files to
Frame? Last year we upgraded one of our products, but at that time
management decided not to upgrade the manual. However we still made updates
to the online help file. So now our existing hard copy documentation is out
of sync with our online help and the software.
Now my boss would like to create a 3.2 manual and switch the manual from
Word to Frame and I have been asked to convert the Winhelp RTF files to
Frame. However, we do want to perform the task without investing in any
extra software. Any words of wisdom are appreciated.
Regards,
Dal
