I believe what Winfried says is correct. The purpose of the integration provided in TCS is to give a "live" connection between your FM book and RoboHelp, so that if the book contents change, RH knows about it. In that case your RH project is *linked* to the FM book. Without TCS, you simply import the book into RH and forego the dynamic link that TCS gives.
I applaud your desire to single-source. You should also look at alternative solutions such as WebWorks ePublisher, Flare, and MIF2Go, as well as the TCS. TCS includes other applications that you may or may not want to spend money on. HTH!

However, as far as I know RoboHelp can process FrameMaker books whether it’s integrated in the TCS or not. The only advantage of the TCS is that you can start the conversion from within FrameMaker. Otherwise you must manually direct RoboHelp to the folder with the FrameMaker book.

August 2011 21:10 An: Thomas Scalise; framers@lists.frameusers.com Betreff: RE: FrameMaker 10 and RoboHELP 9 The full integration works only within TCS. If you have FM10 and you have RH9, but not TCS, then you don’t have the integration. When you have the TCS integration, you can write in FM and then click Publish to go directly to your RH outputs. The RH projects must be set up ahead of time, of course, which is not a trivial step, but you would have to do that in any event. So TCS3 is not a magic wand, but it is a time saver and error-reducer.

If it exists, must it occur within the TCS? I have a large update project and it would be immensely easier with single source capability.
