Creating an Oracle Help project in a methodical way helps you keep the process organized. Here are some tips for developing an Oracle Help project:
Follow a process. Creating Oracle Help is a three-step process: first, author your Help system in RoboHELP; second, generate your Oracle Help files; and third, package the files for delivery by either compressing them into a .JAR file or keeping them as a set of individual files.
Don't spend time on elements Oracle Help doesn't support. If you know you are a creating a Help project that you intend to transfer into Oracle Help, read through the Oracle Help limitations carefully. That way you won't spend time creating elements and formatting that are not supported in Oracle Help.
Incorporate build tags. Make use of build tags, especially if you are creating a master project that will be transferred into several other Help formats.
Carefully coordinate creation of context-sensitive Oracle Help. Talk with your developer to plan how you are going to create context-sensitive Help for your Oracle Help project. Identify who is doing what and when.
