USING ROBOHELP HTML 9 285 Generating Help and printed documents Select Help output You can select one of the four output options for Adobe AIR: ❖ In the General tab of the Adobe AIR dialog box, select the output type: Adobe AIR Application Generates Adobe AIR output as embedded Help. The Help system is created as a single AIR application installer. You can install the AIR application locally or distribute it to your users. Users can update their installed Help system based on Adobe AIR whenever an update is available on the web. For more information about autoupdates, see the AutoUpdating section in the Adobe AIR Help article by Peter Grainge. Note: You need JRE 1.6 or higher installed on your system to install the Adobe AIR application. Browser Based Help Generates browser-based Help as an Adobe Flex application that you can use as online or embedded Help. You can upload this output to the server with specific configurations. Users can view this Help using a browser with Adobe Flash plug-in 9.0 or later installed. Note: Browser-based Help does not support Adobe AIR application features such as commenting, favorites, resources, RSS, and auto-update. AIR Application And Browser Based Help Generates the Help system in two formats simultaneously: Adobe AIR application and browser-based Help. You can view the AIR application after installing it on your computer. You can view the browser-based Help by uploading it to a server. The two Help systems are independent of each other. Help Content Only Generates the Help system as a data file (RHA) that you can view in a Help viewer. Use the Help Viewer wizard in RoboHelp to create a Help viewer. To view multiple files in a single view, you can write the location of all those files in a HelpConfig file. Note: For the syntax of the HelpConfig file, see "Create and locate a Help content configuration file" on page 309. For a step-by-step description of how to merge the output of multiple projects into a single .air file, see www.adobe.com/go/learn_rh_merge_rha_en . Configure Help settings ❖ In the General tab of the Adobe AIR dialog box, set the following. Output Location of AIR File Click Browse to select a folder for the Help application installer (AIR file) and specify a name. By defa-ult, RoboHelp names the Help application installer by appending .air to your project name. Output Location of Start Page (Browser-based Help Only) Specify the first page to display in browser-based Help. Help Title Specify a title for your Help application. This title appears in the title bar of the Help and in Program Files. Version Specify a version number for the generated Help application. Typically, you set 1.0 as the version number for the initial release of your Help application, and increment the version number for subsequent releases. The incremental version numbers help your users identify updated Help content in their local installations. Help ID Specify a unique identifier for the Help application. The Help ID can be alphanumeric and include periods and hyphens. Note: When you deliver updated Help, change only the version number. The installed AIR Help uses the combination of Help ID and Version to identify whether a later version of Help is available. Last updated 12/14/2011
