Hi Corinne, If your requirements aren't too extraordinary (e.g. open menus, hidden content, delayed capture), you can also use the common PRINT or ALT+PRINT shortcut and paste the screenshot from the clipboard into your favorite graphics software (CTRL+v). There you can do whatever you wanted

I am currently working with a couple of other people who are new to framemaker. I've been using frame for a bit over two years on a near daily basis. I use the practice of always opening a frame book before editing individual files within that book. My concern is that by working in an individual

I haven't found that to be a problem in FM9 p250 - when Writer A is in Chapter1.fm and makes a cross-ref to Writer B's Chapter2.fm, Writer A gets the dialog about Chapter2.fm being edited, but you can choose View and place your x-ref anyway. When they both get saved, it seems to preserve the

What Steve says is all true, of course, but it really has nothing to do with the question of whether a writer needs to have the book file open before working on any chapter. The answer to the question Timothy asked is no, there is no requirement for the book file to be open whenever a
