Hi Rick, This works OK for links to a separate file, but not to links in the same file.
Is there anything I can do in the Frame file to force cross reference to open in a new link? Unfortunately we also have incredibly inept readers and asking them to change their preferences is unrealistic.

Go to the Documents category, and uncheck the "Open cross-document links in same window" checkbox. I am using Acrobat Pro, but I think Reader has the same setting. Rick Quatro Carmen Publishing Inc. r...@frameexpert.com 585-659-8267 Is it possible to make a cross-reference (not a marker) open in a new window ? Here's the situation: FrameMaker 9.0 book with approx 10 files. Cross-references are both within and between the FM files. The book is converted to a single PDF file. For convenience, our readers sometimes want to open the cross-reference in a new window - even though it means that then they have two copies of the file open. In Acrobat & Reader 8 and earlier, you can do this with right-click 'open link in new window'. But Adobe has removed this from Acrobat & Reader 9. So I'm looking for a work-around. Any suggestions ? As always, TIA for any help, Jo Watkiss _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to Framers as jowatk...@watkiss.com.
