Question

Access help topics without Arbortext Editor

I am attempting to access the help topics that a user might normally get via the Arbortext Editor (AE) command line however that is not possible for me; I am behind a firewall so "on-line" help is not available.

I am trying to upgrade to AE 7.0 and need to track down some of the error messages I am getting.

Is there a way to access the help topics on the web from this site or another location without having AE installed. I cannot use a copy outside my firewall.

    Sorry I'm not 100% certain what you are asking for but here are the options I use.

    1. With Editor installed, you have the Arbortext Help Center installed locally on your machine.

    2. You can use http://support.ptc.com and search either the Knowledge Base or the complete set of product documentation.

    3. You can download PDFs and store them locally on your machine, or on a USB, etc.
