No. The conversion from map to book should repoint the references to the
new generated FM files. You should be able to author in DITA XML files,
then create a book from that which can be made into a proper PDF. If
that's not the case, it's a bug.

Did you create FM files or XML files? If you created XML files, the
xrefs will all pretty much say page 1.

Hi Steve...
Hmm .. check to see where the @hrefs are pointing .. do they
reference the generated FM files or do they reference the source
DITA topics? They should be referencing the generated FM files (so
the links work in the PDF and the page numbers are correct). At
one point FM-DITA had a problem with this (leaving the @hrefs
pointing at the DITA topics), but I thought this had been fixed.
Have you applied the two FM10 updates?
