Just inherited a set of manuals that have 238 (yes, I really did count
them) paragraph formats. Let's not even go there on character formats,
cross-ref formats, and etc. In 20+ years of working with Frame I have
never seen anything like this.
These are ~100-page manuals, so as far as I can tell most of the styles
are not used, just accumulation from years and years and years of one
person iteratively adapting a single template, just adding new stuff
whenever she felt it was needed.
How on earth can these books be cleaned up without losing things like
cross refs and index markers? I have clean, well-built templates the
info could be moved into, but how to do that while keeping the template
clean? Would the best solution be just bite the bullet and blow
everything out to plain text and start over?
