Use a hypertext marker in FrameMaker. 1. Make your link, e.g. Email: <hyperlink character tag>[EMAIL PROTECTED]</chartag> (I've found you HAVE to use some sort of character tag on a hypertext marker, otherwise the entire paragraph becomes a link)
2. Select the text of your link and add a hypertext marker as follows: message URL mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >From a PDF or WebWorks Help, that creates a link that will attempt to open the default mail client and e-mail to that address. HTH, Zoë -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ron Miller Sent: Monday, September 18, 2006 1:46 PM To: Framers List Subject: Calling an External App I have a client that wants to call the default email application from the PDF and online help (produced with WWP). Putting WWP aside for now, is there a way to set up a call to an external application, have the application open and be populated? Further, can you set it up so that it calls the default email client?
