Re: [Framers] Expected Size of HTML5 Help file - from your experience and knowledge
Hi, This system cannot link to graphics online. I do not think the users will necessary have access to the internet.

Re: [Framers] Expected Size of HTML5 Help file - from your experience and knowledge
The skin shouldn't make much difference, that's just different CSS. Seems like SnagIt's compression is not the best, so you should use some other tool to get maximum compression. Are all those images really essential? Have you cropped out all irrelevant information? Is the 15MB limit really necessary?

Re: [Framers] Expected Size of HTML5 Help file - from your experience and knowledge
Is it possible to deliver very-low resolution versions of the graphics in the Help that hyperlink to full-resolution versions online? This would depend on security policies for online connections, and whether users would have access to online resources, and if they need the information only available in higher-resolution versions. Also a search for "best methods to reduce graphics file sizes" has some interesting results. HTH.

Re: [Framers] Expected Size of HTML5 Help file - from your experience and knowledge
Frame 2017 (without RH) Well, I have partly solved the issue mentioned below. I wanted to make sure I only worked on relevant graphic files, so I used "package" to get them. This actually reduced the size of the .png files for some reason. I then used Photoshop to reduce the size of these files. Eventually the size of the help package was reduced to 9-10 Mb approx. However, the User guide/project will grow. We are talking about a user guide which has nearly 300 pages, and they are adding components all the time. If you make HTML 5 help file, what is the expected size of the file, and is there any way to make it smaller. How large is a basic project? Does it depend on the Skin (Working without RH).
