You can define a basic expression that excludes tags, or a complex expression with Boolean operators, such as AND, OR, NOT. Users cannot access topics or TOCs that are excluded from output. Index keywords and TOC entries do not appear. RoboHelp removes links to the topic and removes the topic from link controls. It removes links to bookmarks inside areas tagged as excluded.
