There are several problems with the HTML5 layouts supplied with RH10: ~They are not consistently formatted across mobile device layouts; a client wanting output for all mobile devices will have to put up with different color schemes, different "branding," etc. for each device he wants to output to. ~Adobe admits that they expected the RH10 user to have their IT department modify the HTML5. Well, we small and 1-person companies have no IT department. ~There is precious little documentation that explains how to edit the HTML5 files. Vikram Verma, the RoboHelp TCS product manager, promised a Webinar but I don't believe it has happened yet.
You can download a brief procedure that Vikram sent me in March at https://www.dropbox.com/s/ip6x2whnpfb315m/How%20to%20Edit%20RoboHelp%20mobile%20layouts.pdf. It might be helpful. I haven't tried it myself because I honestly thought that when I purchased RH10 I could do what I needed to do without having to learn an entirely new profession of Web design and HTML5 coding. Right now, I'll probably hire someone to tweak the sample files to make an entire set of mobile layouts with similar branding.
