It allows you to define one or more PDF files from a FrameMaker book file. For each PDF definition, you can specify variable definitions and conditional text settings. I use it to produce three distinctly different PDFs from each of my Frame book files. At production time, Buildfire cranks through the Frame source, updating variables and conditions on the fly, and spits out nice, neat PDFs. One caveat: Convivio is based in Montreal, so don't plan on needing support on a Canadian holiday -- and there appear to be lots of them. HTH. ...Susan Susan Frahm Modlin Publications Manager, Edusoft Riverside Publishing, a Houghton Mifflin Company www.edusoft.com -----Original Message----- That kind of works as a work around. Until I quickly switch from one book to another and create the PDF, but forget to reimport the variables. _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to Framers as [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit http://lists.frameusers.com/mailman/options/framers/archive%40mail-archive.com Send administrative questions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit http://www.frameusers.com/ for more resources and info.
