Multiple Languages

I'm being faced with producing a fairly major project in various languages. Getting the actual translation of the text and producing screen shots is not a problem.

However what I'd really appreciate is a pointer to some kind of "best practices" guide in doing this in Flare before I get too far into ...

Centre image in numbered lists

Not sure if this is the correct place to ask, so apologies if not.

I've spent hours struggling to find out if/how I can centre images in numbered lists, but keep the text left justified.

Aside from trying various settings in the Image properties: position, etc., I have also tried inserting a <br ...

Re: Printing a single Topic

(Love your tag line!)

I'm printing from the .chm itself which has hundreds of Topics. It appears that page 1 is simply the title, and Page 2 the Topic. And it seems to be happening so far with 6 or 7 I've tried so far. None have printed purely the Topic.

Printing a single Topic

When I print out a "one-page" topic, I am getting two pages. The first page is simply the topic title. The second page is the actual topic, which includes the title.
I've clearly set something in error, but I cannot for the life of me figure out what I've done and how to fix this.
Any suggestions ...

Re: TOC Page number positioning

Many, many thanks. You are an absolute star! - not exactly what you would call "intuitive" is it?

I'm coming to the conclusion that some kind of AKA (Also Known As) is badly needed here. Indeed in my role as a Board member of UKAAF.org (UK Association for Accessible Formats), I am becoming more ...

TOC Page number positioning

I've been going round in ever decreasing circles over the last 2 days trying to find out how to adjust the position of the column of TOC page numbers to the page width. I just can't seem to find the right search term(s) :oops:

FYI, this is for an A5 size double-sided booklet I'm producing. Aside ...

Magnify or Reduce Screen in CHM

At one time I was able to hold down the Ctrl key and use the mouse wheel to enlarge or reduce the screen image - As I can still do in Internet Explorer.

I must have messed up setting in Flare 9 - any suggestions on what please?

Re: Mapping Flare styles to Word OUTPUT styles

I did finally realise what you also found, but what a pain!!

I perhaps should start another thread, but this sounds close enough - Alt Tags, intended to describe graphics.

It looks like the latest version does at least carry these over, BUT....... if you try to produce a Word file with embedded ...

Re: Flare V8 Dot Net error

Sorry about the delay in responding. And as luck would have it, I also now have a trial of Flare V9 on my Windows 7 Pro desktop system, and it's doing the same when I right click on an image. :cry:

I am a full administrator. The odd thing is that I installed V9 on my laptop, which is running ...

Forgive me as it's the first time I've attaempted to post with a screen shot.

Re: Images in Word output: a cycle of bugs

I' d agree with Steve here. I absolutely MUST obtain Word output as well as .chm files. It may be no consolation to you right now, but I've been through all of the issues you mention myself, and all have been problems on my part. The page size issue was a nasty one initially because the Americans ...
