The path looks fine. I gather you aren't using the Documents template for HTML either? That's OK, as long as the two projects are the same with that. The rest of your settings look OK. Oh, add: [HelpContentsLevels] Title=1 Heading1=1 Heading2=1 If you make them all level 1, your first replace will always be of "[1,", no wildcard needed. See par. 7.4.3, "Including contents entries in HTML-based Help". Perhaps I should have been more explicit about what to do in the Choose project dialog. Select the HTML project, but don't push any buttons yet. Change the name in the top field, and for the second field push [...] and choose the new Omnihelp output directory, Then select Omnihelp in the last field. NOW, press Add, then OK. It should go on to the Export dialog, just continue as usual. -- Jeremy H. Griffith, at Omni Systems Inc. http://mif2go.com/

If you have set [OmniHelpOptions]ProjectName, it will use that instead of the book name, but that's not possible if you used the process I described and copied your HTML .ini to the OH output dir and then renamed it. The HTML inis never have that setting. You do NOT want to create a new ini for the OH project, as then the split points may be different between the two.

No, that's an *example* entry, in %omsyshome%\common\local\configs\local_omsys.ini ; ; Archiving output for distribution ; [Automation] ; To have Mif2Go or DITA2Go package output, you need an archiving program ; that can be run from a command line, such as WinZip (wzzip) or PKZip. ; Specify the command to run the archiver: ; For WinZip (for example): ;ArchiveCommand = "c:\program files\winzip\wzzip" ; For PKZip (for example): ArchiveCommand = C:\bin\pkzip25 ; ; Command-line parameters required before the archive name: ArchiveStartParams = -add ; Command-line parameters required after the archive name: ArchiveEndParams = *.* You need to edit it to use the command and parameters of whatever you use to make zips; there are numerous free programs out there for it.

I'd suggest that you conditionalize the NON-KB part. then hide it. Set up your output directory for HTML below the Frame book file, as usual, and make another one for OH next to it. When you have the HTML as you want it, copy the _m2html.ini to the OH directory and rename it to _m2omnihelp.ini. Then run the OH project. All you want from it is the projname_ohc.js file. Delete the first line, and edit the last line to match the rest. Now you can do two search/replaces, say in Notepad++, to replace field 1, "[?,", with "1,", and the ending "]" with ",PAS_51,sites,en_US". All done, in a minute or two. ;-) Use your list with the HTML files of the HTML project, not the ones from the OH project, which have some JS used only by OH. The filenames and titles will all be identical. HTH! -- Jeremy H. Griffith, at Omni Systems Inc. http://mif2go.com/
