Hi Steve 10.0.2.419 is the latest patch, so that's OK. Meanwhile, I have done some tests with Fm 10 and earlier versions: 9, 8 and 7.2. It is a weird problem indeed: I got the same result as your colleague when I generated a PDF from Fm 10, 9 and 8 but the PDF from FrameMaker 7 was OK. But there is also something strange going on in the file itself. For example, when I change the paratag of the WARNING! in the first table to CellBody, I do see all the text in the PDF (your colleague may test this as well). I also see all the text in the PDF when I change the paratag of the vanishing paragraph (from CellBody to CellBody - Bold). So, I have been able to fix this problem by applying and renaming the CellBody and CellBody - Bold paratags:
1. Apply CellBody - Bold to the vanishing paragraph. 2. Rename CellBody - Bold to CellBodyBold. 3. In the vanishing paragraph, change font weight Bold to Regular and Apply to selection. 4. In the vanishing paragraph, rename CellBodyBold to Cellbody and Apply to selection. 5. Rename CellBodyBold to CellBody - Bold again and Update All. 6. Put the text cursor in the vanishing paragraph and Update All paragraphs tagged CellBody. 7. Generate PDF: everything OK. Phew, quite an experience to be back in the unstructured Fm world. In DITA, all the author needs to do is insert a <note> element and give it the right @type attribute (caution, warning, tip etc.). All the rest (icons, hazard statements, background shading...) is handled automagically by the transformations and style sheets. I will send you the file off-list.
