[Framers] FrameMaker to Robohelp Integration

[John Posada]

Thanks, Robert. At this gig, RH is an established priority tool, Their
content authoring starts in Word.

Should this go through, after I've proven my worth, my intent is to try to
switch them to FM as they need printed documentation/PDFs in addition to
online help.

I've done Online Helps using FM/WebWorks ePublisher Pro and I agree it is a
better solution. However, it might be too much of a lift to revamp the
WHOLE process than to upgrade in stages.

Proposing RH/FM as an integrated authoring environment might be attractive.
