2. Many people switched from TCS 2 to 3 or 3.5 because of increased stability with the linking process and better handling of FM to RH items. With TCS4 being announced today, it will be interesting to see the upgrade percentage - I expect it will be fairly high due to the new features in RH outputs.
1. There's a whole FM Integration forum in the Adobe Forums devoted to issues that arise in the FM to RH process and a Google Group of us TCS users too. There are limitations as to what RH can handle coming from FM. CSS can be applied in a couple of different ways, so without knowing your specific issues, I can't really help you here. Try posting over there with some screenshots of what you are experiencing & maybe we can suggest some solutions. -----Original Message----- From: framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Katelyn Cummings Sent: Monday, July 23, 2012 9:36 AM To: framers@lists.frameusers.com Subject: Single sourcing in the new TCS3 Hello Framers! I work for a relatively small company, and unfortunately I am relatively new to both RoboHelp and FrameMaker. My company wants to switch to having our online help and our user's manual to be essentially the same. They have thought about using the single sourcing available in TCS2. I have been having some problems with the single sourcing and wanted to see if anyone has had similar problems. 1) So, first of all, is anyone out there using the interactive linking to single source between FrameMaker and RoboHelp? And if so, what kind of problems have you run into? I have run into issues with formatting. Sometimes it just does not accept the CSS I have written even though I know the code is fine. I also have had problems with pictures as well as issues with the links crossing over. Is this a problem with the stylesheets, which I have had difficulty editing? Or is it a problem with how the original FrameMaker documents were created? Am I just an inexperienced user? I realize you do not know for sure because you are not here with me, but if you had any insights about known issues or common problems with the single sourcing, that would be helpful. 2) Has anyone switch from TCS2 to TCS3 or TCS3.5 for single sourcing purposes and if so, why? I have been trying to determine the pros and cons, but as far as I can tell, there is not a lot of enhanced capability. Any help that you all could give me would be very much appreciated.
