Hello Framers,
Structured Frame 8.0 (TCS1). ?I'm trying to setup hypertext links (or a cross-references, if it can be done that way) to PDFs that may or may not exist yet. I want to emulate what you can do in Word, which is Insert > Hyperlink, tell it what text to display, and tell it what address to look for. Convert the Word doc to PDF and the hyperlink works when the referenced PDF is present. Remove the PDF, link doesn't work; replace the PDF, link works. What is the best way to accomplish this in Frame? -- FILE-A.pdf references FILE-B.pdf and needs to have a relative link that will allow the reader to jump to FILE-B.pdf. -- In the Frame source file (FILE-A.fm), I want to create the hyperlink now so that I can release the FILE-A.pdf, knowing that the link will not work until FILE-B.pdf is available. -- I then expect that when FILE-B.pdf is placed in the proper directory as specified in the hypertext, everything should work. I can create the hypertext in a structured or unstructured way, so I don't think I have any questions about that part. I'm trying the instructions in Scriptorium's Frame 8 book, which indicate that first one must identify the target, and then create the link, both steps using the Special > Hypertext dialog. I've stepped through it, but I think I'm overlooking something basic that I should already know. THANKS in advance for any input!
