This tab of the Help & Manual action configures information about the help project being compiled.

 

Filename: Specifies the Help & Manual project file to compile (required).

 

Output formats: Indicates which output format(s) to generate and (optionally) the filename for each format.  At least one output format should be checked.  Relative paths are relative to the path of the help project file.

 

PDF Manual template file: Specifies the name of the PDF manual template. This parameter is optional and only enabled when the Adobe PDF output format is checked. If not provided, the template that is specified for PDF output in project properties is used.  Relative paths are relative to the path of the help project file.

 

Note: If Visual Build doesn't detect that this product is installed when first run, this action will not be displayed (existing steps will still be displayed in the Step panes and will build normally).  To show all hidden actions, right-click in the Actions pane and choose Show Hidden.
