Solved: MIF for RoboHelp on the Fritz

[Pinkham, Jim]

Mystery solved: The parent network folder for the FM files for this
particular job had a trademark symbol in the filename. As soon as I
removed the symbol from the folder name, the Robo MIF operation worked
without a hitch.

That will happen if you never used Setup... for the Mif2Go project.  If
you are really using RH, you probably didn't.  ;-)

Wash via MIF doesn't need a project setup, so that always works.

It's unlikely that SetPrint is involved.  If the Robo MIF process writes
to a different directory, see if you can SaveAs MIF to the same
directory.  Sounds like a permission problem.
