Adobe RoboHelp has a powerful scripting capability and comes with a number of prepared scripts. You can also find more on various websites and many are free, you will find links on the Adobe RoboHelp forums. Scripts can automate procedures that might otherwise take time to undertake manually. Writing scripts is for advanced users and may require the assistance of your developers.
