Hey Fellow Framers, I was just teaching some folks how to use FM 9 (on Win XP) when we ran into some interesting problems. The first is one I've mentioned before in this forum, although now I can re-create it. It has to do with the Paragraph Designer getting stuck. You can click on the icons to set the Default Font, Pagination or, but the Para Designer pod remains on the Basic view and will not switch or accept any actions. The only fix is to restart FM. I found that this occurs when you are creating a new paragraph tag and set a tab using the ruler at the top of the doc. When you click Apply or Update All, the designer becomes catatonic and you have to restart. Sometimes this occurs when you put in a tab, then take it out, but seems related to using the ruler to do so. So my recommendation is to set your tabs numerically using the Basic tab in the Para Designer until this bug is fixed.
The second problem I saw occurred when printing a book. I can use PDF Setup to set my bookmarks, but I cannot save them. I click the Set button, then make my print. The next time I open the Print Book panel, my bookmark settings are gone and they're back to their defaults. So every time I make a print, I have to set my pdf bookmarks. Sigh. Has anyone else seen these glitches? Susan Corcoran
