Julie, You can by using text insets. You would need to create individual pieces of text, whether Frame or PDF. The first time around you would have to manually insert each into the respective position in the host Frame file using File > Import > File with Import by Reference.
I would recommend creating a separate folder to contain the text insets. If you make a change to a text inset, when you open the host file the content will update automatically, as long as the path to the inset hasn't changed. If your insets are PDF, you would want to keep them to a page or less. --- On Fri, 8/26/11, Julie A Beste-Walz <beste-walzj at dteenergy.com> wrote: From: Julie A Beste-Walz <[email protected]> Subject: Can parts of a pdf be merged into an existing frame file using automation?

The different text/tables/figs would?be quite random (not standardized text/numbers) so I wasn't sure how it could be automated.?or,?What if both files were Frame files, would there be a way to automate the merging of two Frame files (again only specific text, tables/figs from one of the the filed would be merged into the other).?ThanksJulie -----Inline Attachment Follows----- _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to framers as dspreadb at yahoo.com.
