Miranda, Why it is happening is probably because some of the images weren't replaced with the new pointers.
The good thing is it's an easy fix (the following works with Frame 7.2, so I am guessing that it will work with Frame 10). 1. Make sure the network images folder contains ALL of the images. 2. Make sure the local path doesn't exist. If the folder is still there, change the folder name, or delete it. The safe way is to rename it. This way Frame can't automatically find the folder, and if an image is missing from the network folder you can manually copy it out to the network folder. 3. Open the book file, select all of the chapters, and press Enter to open all chapters. 4. At the first missing image file, redirect it to the network folder. That chapter, and all remaining chapters, that have incorrect image folder links should automatically readjust to the network images folder. --- On Thu, 2/16/12, meg miranda <[email protected]> wrote: From: meg miranda <[email protected]> Subject: hard coded path names for imported graphics and x-refs To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Date: Thursday, February 16, 2012, 8:43 PM Hi all, We're using Frame 10 and doing unstructured books. We have source files out on a network drive, but we do often copy the files to our local machines so that we can work remotely and offline on them. So now I have a book out on the network drive that somehow is referencing images on c:\dic\mybook\userguide\images\button.jpg instead of \images\button.jpg. A similar thing has happened to some of the x-refs in 3 of the chapters. We are getting specific references instead of relative references. Does anyone have any suggestions why this behavior is happening? or how to fix it without having to open each chapter file and repoint the graphic directory? I think I'm most conserned about understanding why it is happening, so that I can tell our team how to avoid this problem. thanks,meg -----Inline Attachment Follows----- _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to framers as [email protected].
