I automatically compile my projects with Finalbuilder.
Since the new PDF engine was implemented, I receive the warning »Topic requires more than 100 pages to print . Continue?«.
Can the message be suppressed, so that Finalbuilder does not stop?

This has already been reported and a "Cancel" button was added. The question now is, why do you have any single topics with that many pages? No user will ever read more than the first few pages. And if you have set up a single long topic with multiple TOC items pointing to it with anchors at different points that's also not all that efficient -- it won't give you any advantages in the compiled help and it will make editing a lot more difficult.

Good morning Tim,
in my opinion the announcement is unnecessary. So that Finalbuilder does not break off, I alter the project in such a way that every topic generates less than 100 pages in the PDF file.
Sometimes it absolutely makes sense to have such topics. In my case it simply concerns several charts of municipalities with identity figures for a accounting software.

When I compile for Browser based help, no problem. But when I compile for PDF, my content is saved with about 1 line per page, resulting in about 3600 pages instead of 100. If I rtry Print Preview, it looks great. It's just when I do the PDF compile. I have done PDF compliles in the past with this project and there has been no problem. Ihave the latest version of H&M. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Blair

That would be cute...jarvis24 wrote:I guess that means if I were printing my manual onto mailing labels, I could do it with 3600 of them.
