Hi Tim, As Fred pointed out, there are tons of things you can do with FrameScript or the FDK. I am partial to FrameScript because I make my living writing them, but you can really make FrameMaker fly with FrameScript automation.
Rick Quatro Carmen Publishing Inc. 585-659-8267 r...@frameexpert.com *** Frame Automation blog at http://frameautomation.com Frame is clunky; Word is quirky. I have to agree numbered lists are Word's Achilles heal, although I can (usually) get them to work. I worked for 10 years at a company where we used Word to create professional documentation with page counts reaching into the thousands with very consistent template styles and rare file corruption. We had the advantage of a developer who could make Word do almost anything and had custom tool bars and automated documentation generation built into Word. The flexibility allowed by VBA programming is a great strength of Word. That said, there is something comforting about the stolid reliability of FM--once you get it figured out. tims _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to framers as arch...@mail-archive.com.
