hello chrchlcci:

we've been importing pdf's original adobe format robohelp x5 3 years now.

the problem once import it, import process requires convert jpeg. text not searchable.

that is, suppose have statement "hello crazy monkey" in pdf file. can go ahead , import using robohelp "import pdf file" option file--> import menu, when use search try finding "hello crazy monkey", won't find it. reason being pdf image (jpeg usually), , text isn't treated text!

if question in relation inserting pdfs directly rh in original pdf form, can create hyperlink , put local folder.

we've done before too. is, create hyperlink filename , put pdf file in local folder. local folder "webhelp" folder. every time republish/regenerate, have manually add in end.

let me know if need additional information this.

take care.
