Re: Image in header not appearing in one particular document
Just replying in case anyone experiences the same issue - I managed to fix this today by shortening the target name. I'm not sure why a long target name would cause a logo to not appear, and I'm also not sure why Flare didn't inform me this was the reason, but it's working now.

Image in header not appearing in one particular document
Hi guys, I have a page layout for the header and footer of my PDF documents. The header has an image in it. This image appears fine in the vast majority of PDF targets when I publish them. However, I noticed recently that the image in the header is not appearing for one particular document. I have t...

Report on target files, associated variables, etc.
Hi, The Web team in my company have a requirement for me to produce some sort of manifest file (possibly in CSV format), that lists each of our target files and their associated variables (and values), and associated Table of Contents (and entries). Is something like this possible using Flare or Ana...

Topics without changes showing in Files With Changes report

I have noticed that some topics appear in the Files With Changes report, even though there are no changes in the topic. Has anyone else noticed this? Is this something tha...

Re: Bulk edit target settings?
Thank you! I didn't realize targets were text files and it was that easy to do a find and replace of the settings. I just used it to disable Preserve tracked changes on my PDF targets and it worked great.
Thanks again!
Thanks again!

Bulk edit target settings?
Hi, Is there any way to bulk edit a target setting, for example Preserve tracked changes? We track changes in our documents and would like to include them when providing documents for review, but exclude them when releasing/publishing. However, to do this we would have to manually enable/disable Pre...

Overload requires 'user.name' and 'user.email' to be set
Hi, I'm getting the attached error message in Flare when I try to delete files. I think it might be related to the fact that I recently switched to using a new laptop. Also, it appears to be related to source control. I'm using GitLab. However, I'm using the Git Bash console outside of Flare because...
