Unfortunately not, Clint. This is something that will be used over and over and 
I need to the LSP to stay on the same page as I am.

If they can't give me the correct files by 9am Monday (my time), I have a 
solution to implement. In the meantime, I'll work on tweaking the format of the 
Visio files.

Thanks again.

Alison,

I was afraid that might be the case. Is there any chance that you could
just put all the graphics in the same folder, maybe just for this book?

Clint:

That worked for Chapter 1 where all two of the images are in the same
folder. But all the other chapters and appendices - which are
graphics-rich - have the images stored in multiple folders below
"Graphics (Linked)" so this doesn't work for them.

Thanks, Alison

Alison,

If I understand your situation correctly, all you need to do is use the
"Open All Files in Book" commend from the File Menu (Shift + Open). When
you receive the "Can't find the Graphic" dialog, just navigate to the
new graphic directory and click on the correct file. Make sure that
"update to New Path" is checked, then hit OK. FM should automatically
find all of the remaining graphics in the new directory. Then just "Save
ALL".

HTH,

Clint

I've had that suggested to me by others as well and I'll do it if I have
to.

What about saving the files as MIF & using a find/replace tool to comb
through them?

Subject: Relative Path Problem for Linked Graphics

Version: FM9 (9.0p237)
Unstructured
OS: XP Pro with SP3

I received a set of Spanish files back from my LSP today and as I was
making some adjustments within the files (I do the final format tweaking
as DTP charges are outrageous) it became obvious that they had
completely screwed up my graphics - which I import by reference. As the
LSP is in Europe I am hoping there is a simple batch method to change
the relative path for my all graphics rather than have to re-link by
hand or wait for a set of corrected files.

The path is only out by one level.

The FM files sit directly above my "Graphics (Linked)" directory (which
is further categorized by Chapters, Appendices, etc.). However, there is
now another directory above "Graphics (Linked)" entitled "FM"

...\FM\Graphics (Linked)...

instead of

...\Graphics (Linked)\...

Is there a simple way I can get rid of the "FM" in the relative path (I
don't have FrameScript) or am I screwed and need to wait for updated
files from my LSP?

Alison

FYI: This isn't a mistake the LSP normally makes. I have no idea what
they were playing at but I'll be having words with them!
