images in anchored frames, so they are converted. However, images placed in graphic frames are not
converted. If images contained in anchored frames are missing, RoboHelp creates blank images with the
filename in a sequential manner. See “
Image conversion settings
” on page
80.

settings. See “
Image conversion settings
” on page
