Sent too soon. I also meant to recommend an alternative workflow for Orly. Instead of importing native Visio files as OLE objects (either linked or embedded), print the Visio files to PDF and import that into FM.
I think that's a better solution than Art's suggestion of exporting to a graphics format -- Visio's export filters don't have a very good reputation, but it can certainly print to your Adobe PDF printer. Actually, if you have a recent version of Acrobat, and it was installed after Visio, you'll have Adobe's "make PDF" plugin in Visio. Importing PDF into FM works beautifully. You can probably even get away with embedding the PDFs instead of importing by reference -- the file size will probably be much, much smaller and imported PDF is light-years more stable than OLE objects. Whatever you choose to do, scrapping OLE will be a big improvement. HTH! Richard Richard G.
