TCS3 FrameMaker variables wrong size in RoboHelp

[John Sgammato]

Yeah, that was just shorthand - I use the handy building blocks to avoid that sort of error.

I found another, much worse bug: in some topics, the xrefs get the wrong tag and a different wrong destination: 

In the section: Configuring a Honeywell Pro-Watch Connector  ...
 <p class="FM_ListItemUnordered"><a href="../pl_connectlenel/creating_a_lenel_onguard_connector.htm#XREF_24694_Configuring_Lenel">Creating an AMAG Connector</a></p>

The FM text is fine and a PDF is fine, but the Robo-generated HTML replaces the Honeywell text with Lenel in the link and AMAG in the text! (Lenel and AMAG are two other almost identical chapters)

And I am not really happy with the image quality either, so I am trying to figure out a way to get better images. 

All in all, my RoboHelp adventure will not result in usable online help for Friday's release :-(

Hi John,

Maybe you were just abbreviating in your message, but the proper 
building block is <Default ¶ Font> (which you can also type as </> in 
the variable definition).

HTH,
