If you make this change in the "Book" template file, it will apply to
all of the documents generated. The "template" file is here (in a
typical installation) ..
C:\Program
Files\Adobe\FrameMaker8\Structure\xml\DITA\app\DITA-Book-FM\book.template.fm
Note that it's best to clone the default structure applications and
create your own to customize rather than modifying the default apps.
This allows you to make changes, and compare them to the default
settings in case you break something (it will happen). The following
topic describes this process ..
http://docs.leximation.com/dita-fmx/1.1/?ditafmx_cloningtapps.html
Note that this documentation was written for DITA-FMx, so it won't be
exactly correct for use with the default FM8 DITA apps, but the general
ideas will still apply.
Cheers,

Hi Salome,
One way is to change the color of the condition tag named “DITA
Conref” to black color.
Open the Conditional text Pod after opening the DITA topic file. IN
the Pod, you can edit the “DITA Conref” conditional tag to have black
color by clicking the edit button of the pod.
However this change will only be document specific.
Thanks
Vikash

*Subject:* Conref Issue in FrameMaker 8
Hi! I am running into a conref issue. I am using FrameMaker 8 to
create my documents. When I insert a conref the text is blue. I want
to be able to make PDF documents. However, when I generate a PDF of my
document, the conref info is blue. I read in the FrameMaker help files
that you can change this by changing the dita.template file. I don’t
even know how to do this. There are no instructions that I can find. I
could generate PDFs and just set the print color to black. If I do
this, my graphics will be black too. Quite a conundrum for me.
Has anyone else run into this? What did you do? I have set my conrefs
to load when I open a file.
Any help is appreciated!
Thank you!
Salome
