There are two ways to add content to your RoboHelp project: create topics within RoboHelp or import the content (you can import HTML files, Word documents, FrameMaker books and file, PDFs and more).
Regardless of how you get your content into a RoboHelp project, you will likely need to edit the content at some point. The question is, do you want to edit the content from within RoboHelp (in the WYSIWYG window–What Your See Is What You Get) or within the program that created it?
When opening topics within RoboHelp for editing, you might receive the alert message "The file is associated with a 3rd party editor and may be opened in the other editor." As a result, the topic might open in NotePad or Dreamweaver, instead of RoboHelp. You can prevent this message from appearing–and lower your stress level–by following the following steps.
- Choose Tools > Options
- Select the Tool Location tab
- In the HTML Editors area, select RoboHelp WYSIWYG
- Click the Set As Default button
- Click the Use Default Editor button at the bottom of the dialog box
- Click OK to close the Options dialog box
