Flare V11
Output type: PDF
Page layouts: all have body frame
TOC: Chapter breaks for chapter, page layout break and Right for topic files.
Target: enabled left page and empty pages
Condition/File tags in Topic: None.
Variables in Topic: None.
No extra paragraph tags or other oddities that I can find.
This topic file has a heading style, a bit of conceptual content, and then a 2 column, 3 row table with content.
For this topic, it's a PageLayout break and the Right page layout selected.
I feel like a rookie Flare user this week. LOL! I searched the forum yesterday and today in hopes of finding a similar topic/problem. The last topic and its content are not included in the PDF output. There's a page but no content, no PDF bookmark, and no entry in the TOC, even though the topic file is included in the TOC. What's going on and how can I fix it?
Thanks in advance,
Lisa

Re: Last topic content in TOC does not print in PDF output
Conditions can be set at various levels: at the TOC, anywhere within the topic (it's Body tag), or in Content Explorer for the topic itself. I'd verify that nothing is excluding it.
Re: Last topic content in TOC does not print in PDF output
Thanks for the feedback. Conditions tags are not the problem anywhere in this particular topic, target, etc. The last topic page does now print. Adding an empty page does not resolve the problem. I've exhausted all known avenues, including digging into the XML code. Nothing seems out of the ordinary.

Re: Last topic content in TOC does not print in PDF output
Have you tried moving that topic higher up in the TOC so that it's not at the bottom of the TOC? This will help you isolate whether that particular topic is the problem or if whatever topic at the bottom of the TOC is the problem.
Re: Last topic content in TOC does not print in PDF output
Yes, I've tried that and other arrangements. It's always the last page in the documentation before the back cover page that does not print in the output. Strangest thing I've seen to date in Flare.

Re: Last topic content in TOC does not print in PDF output
Clutching at straws here.
Have you built the target with a different TOC and does it still not work? If so, it might be something in the target.
Is there anything peculiar about the page layout used for the last topic? Something unusual in the properties of the TOC? (You could take a look at a TOC that works and look at this one, both in the text editor, to see if any differences leap out at you.)
Other than that, I suspect you have a bug. If you have a maintenance contract then now is the time to speak to Tech Support, I think.
