The TOC contains an entry that links to another Flare help project. The primary target is Web Help. When I generate the PDF, the linked help is not included. How do I generate a PDF that includes the topics linked to the TOC entry?
Thank you for any advice.
File can not be generated to 'Printed' output

Re: File can not be generated to 'Printed' output
In the dialog "Link to Flare Project and Target" (that appears when merging project via the TOC) there is the following text:
2 options that spring to mind. (1) Use Project Importing (Imports>Add Flare Project Import File) to include the actual topics themselves into your project and build the TOC and PDF from that. Or (2) if you have the full version of Acrobat you can build the PDF targets from the separate projects and merge them together afterwards using Acrobat.
No mention there of print outputs, and when you try and select a print target from a linked project (e.g. PDF, Word) they are not there. So it looks like they are not supported with TOC project merging.Select a target from the project being merged. This target must be the same type (DotNet Help, HTML Help, WebHelp, WebHelp Plus, WebHelp Mobile or WebHelp AIR) as the target in your current (i.e.,“masterâ€) project . If you leave the default setting in this field, your “master†project will be merged with the first target of the same type )that it finds in the other project.
