Hi, Bob: The true oracles have spoken and have left you wanting.<G>
I'm not smart enough to give up, so I'd suggest that if using the two-template approach in FM doesn't fit your workflow - and text for hard-copy printing and markup is your primary requirement - you could consider exporting the text from the PDF using full Acrobat, and opening it in FM for reformatting and printing to hard copy as double-spaced copy. Although you can export graphics from PDFs, it's a separate task, and the graphics are numbered arbitrarily, so manually connecting them to their appropriate explanatory text is likely to be prone to human error.
