You mentioned "live link your FrameMaker documents and books." Did you mean "import by reference", or is there a different linking method? [RJ Jacquez] Sorry for the confusing, I used talk a lot about live links from my days with RoboHelp for FrameMaker, but what I meant was the import by reference, so you are doing this correctly. I have attempted to IBR my FM files to RoboHTML, about 50MB total. The process takes ~30 minutes, and the Robo view of the files is "raw." [RJ Jacquez] What do you mean by "raw"? That is, each cross-ref is appended with the FM file name as a prefix. This requires major handwork ex post facto. [RJ Jacquez] This is interesting. Do you know we have a cross-reference mapping feature, similar to mapping Paragraph and Character styles? If not, I created a quick Captivate recording showing where this feature is and here's the link for you to watch: http://my.adobe.acrobat.com/fmxrefs2rh/ If there is a method to "live link", which implies true roundtripping, please elucidate...best regards, Kelly / PavTech/Rockwell [RJ Jacquez] Hopefully this will help you resolve the Xrefs issues and if you have some more problems, I'm planning on participating on this forum more actively, so please ask away.
