Re: Files with "Exclude" condition included in output

Yes, I double-checked the target file to ensure that I selected "Exclude" on the Conditions tab. Also, as you stated, I'm setting the conditions on the files in Contents, not in the TOC file.
I decided to try building and publishing to see if the published output was different. This worked, and only ...

Files with "Exclude" condition included in output

My Flare project consists of topics that are used for both PDF and WebHelp output. For WebHelp, only a subset of the topics are used. However, even thought I apply a print-only condition to topics that I don't want in WebHelp, and set that print-only condition to "Exclude" in my target file, all of ...

Can the Build Process log be saved

During the build process, the Build Progress dialog shows the actions that occur during the build and the files that are included or excluded. Is there any way to save this log for review after the build?

I find that during a CHM build, most of the files in the Flare project are included in the CHM ...

Re: Font changes to bold unexpectedly

I'm working at 100% scale in Capture. If scaling is taking place when I save the image, it's not apparent to me.
I tested the image in Flare without changing the image's size and also by changing its size with the sizing icon.
During the PDF build process there is a message in the list indicating ...

Font changes to bold unexpectedly

I'm trying to update a pre-existing image with text callouts so that the text appears without
a border and is in normal Arial font.

I worked with the image as follows:
- The original image had been created in photoshop and saved as an EPS file.
- Using illustrator, I removed the callouts and ...

Re: Display of long tables in the pdf output

I experienced the same thing while testing what happens to table breaks for a multi-page table. I have an h1 for the Chapter, an h2 for the table title followed by the table. Initially, once the table became longer than the page, the h2 and the table broke to the next page.
I found that I could ...

Re: Problem creating a page-wide table

That did the trick Lisa. Thanks.
For anyone else who does this - any time you change the properties of the tablestyle you are using, be aware that the "margin-left: 0" attribute is re-applied to the table. Therefore you need to re-edit the topic in the Internal Text Editor and manually delete the ...

Problem creating a page-wide table

I'm using Flare 6.1.
I'm trying to create a table for PDF output that spans the width of the page, even though the default page layout uses a body frame that is indented 1.5 inches from the left margin. I also want to use a specific table style for the table. The steps I used are:
1. Insert the ...

I experienced the same problem with search not working in Flare V6.1
The solution was to run the RegisterItcc.bat file in the following location.

Re: Table splitting problem

I think I resolved my problem. In the table style, I had the Table Margins set as Top = 3px and Bottom = 8px. When I changed these to be equal values, say Top = 3px, and Bottom = 3 px, the double line disappeared. This appears to be a bug.

Table splitting problem

I'm relatively new to Flare and I'm trying to troubleshoot a problem when a table splits across 2 pages.
I have created a basic table style with outer borders and separators defined as 1px solid. I also specify "pattern 1, repeat 1" on the rows, columns, header, and footer tabs in the table style ...
