As far as I know, you could do the FM to RH as an import without getting the suite (the suite gives you the power to link), but the pricing's probably better if you do the suite than just standalones.

Subject: ebooks from FM books - via robohelp or some other way?

Hi everyone

We've got multi-chapter documents where the source files are unstructured FM10 book files. We'd like to publish as epub files too.

What software are people using for that?

We've just played with Elmsoft's new EPubFm but it doesn't work on book files, just standalone FM files. We don't have the resources to convert to structured FM, and the books are format-heavy enough that save-as-html looks crappy.

Adobe's marketing material shows FM with an epub option if you're using FM and Robohelp from the Tech Comms Suite. We haven't got the suite - does anyone know if you can get this FM option by just adding Robohelp on top of a standard FM installation?

Any advice or success stories gratefully accepted!

Cheers
Rebecca
