Hi,
I'd like to put out a 120 page multi-document project to Print File
(PostScript) for our vendor to use as electronic input. The way I like to
do it is to name each file sequentially, so that the vendor just uses the
files "in order" and gets the right result. For example, if I name them A,
B,C, D, and E, A will contain the cover sheet and the Table of Contents, B
will contain pages 1-48, C pages 49-98, etc. to E, which will contain the
Glossary and Index.
Trouble is, when I try to use "Save As" to save the Cover and TOC part of
the DocToHelp project document and then try to use "Save As" to save the
Glossary and Index separately, I get messages having to do with the INI. I
tried removing the Template, but then I lost the page numbers.
How do you DocToHelp users prepare your electronic files for vendors?
Thanks!
