Merged WebHelp System Outputted to One PDF?

Post by Eileen »

App: :flare: Flare 4.2
Help system: multiple projects are merged via WebHelp targets to deliver one WebHelp system with merged TOC, Index, and Search. It works great.
Problem: On the print side of things, however, we want to deliver one PDF and I am not finding any info re: merging projects via a PDF target. When we generate from our master project, output stops at the point where we have linked to an additional project in our TOC and ignores topics that come after the linkage (or the "Include" point as it was called in RoboHelp). The Merged Target scenario isn't covered in Flare's Printed Output Guide.

Can anyone shed light on the methodolgy? Do we somehow do a "container" page layout with additional nested page layouts to control this? I'm just stabbing at ideas here... Propeller heads, help!
