dummzeuch 1506 Posted October 23 @Jim McKeeth has updated the GExperts documentation a bit. It’s far from finished but that’s better than the totally outdated one on gexperts.org. I have now exported it as webhelp and checked it in to subversion. You can read it at my newly created domain help.gexperts.de. (The domain is temporary only for now. I got it cheap but I’m not sure I will keep it.) 1 4 Share this post Link to post

limelect 48 Posted November 3 Will; it be possible to make a PDF from your help site? There are conversions from HTML to PDF out there Share this post Link to post
zed 14 Posted November 3 (edited) PDF is not very good for documentation, CHM is the best! Edited November 3 by zed Share this post Link to post

dummzeuch 1506 Posted November 3 Unfortunately I just found that Webhelp as single export and Webhelp as part of a batch export are different. No idea why. Share this post Link to post

I got two warnings regarding "unsafe" file from the internet and then it simply showed its content. Since I have no idea how these files/the viewer works, I can't say what the problem on your side might be. Share this post Link to post
zed 14 Posted November 3 Possible solution from here: https://helpman.it-authoring.com/viewtopic.php?t=16333 Add this line to the template: <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" /> Share this post Link to post

I found no way to actually configure this in Help and Manual. But when resetting some options to the default, this line was inserted automatically. Previously there was a line <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" /> Which I could also find nowhere. It was probably inserted automatically. I have just committed a new .chm file. Try if it works for you. Share this post Link to post

OT All the files downloaded from iInternet are "blocked", this means that some features of the file cannot works. To unblock them use what @dummzeuch said. Other method is run a powershell script: UnBlock-File Ref.: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.utility/unblock-file?view=powershell-7.4 I use this to remove all block signs in every file of the present directory and sub folders (form PowerShell command): dir .\ -Recurse -Force | Unblock-File Share this post Link to post
