How come when you select Help and Manual 7,8 and 9 there is no option to create RTF files?

Has it been hidden by mistake?

The option is there, you just have to scroll the tabs or use the dropdown menu to go to the tab

The tab is there, but it is not listed in the "Type of help files to create’ and it is not being generated.

I had a look at the code, and it seems RTF as an individual publish target was removed from HM 7 - so we have a condition to remove the option based on the HM version selected.

It seems they combined RTF and DOCX together, so use the docx target and specify an rtf file extension.

Ah - so they have apologies.

One other thing though, if you press the help button on that page it tries to go to [http://wiki.finalbuilder.com/display/FB8/Help+&+Manual+Action](http://wiki.finalbuilder.com/display/FB8/Help+&+Manual+Action) which is invalid.

Thanks, fixed for the next update.
