Hi Stephen, If you have FrameScript 6, you can use this code to convert all of the text insets in a document to text. It could be modified to work on all of the documents in a book. If you don't have FrameScript, I can look and see if a function like this is available in ExtendScript, which is built into FrameMaker 12. Please let me know if you have any questions or comments. Thank you very much.

Hi, I am using FM 12 and have several books with over 70 documents, all containing text insets. When I generate the monthly PDFs, I copy the files to my PC, convert all the text insets document by document for each book, then update the books and print the PDFs. I convert the text insets because I have some titles in my text insets. I am looking for a way to convert all of the text insets throughout a book automatically. Any suggestions (scripts, add-ins)? Many thx, Stephen O'BRIEN _______________________________________________ This message is from the Framers mailing list Send messages to [email protected] Visit the list's homepage at http://www.frameusers.com Archives located at http://www.mail-archive.com/framers%40lists.frameusers.com/ Subscribe and unsubscribe at http://lists.frameusers.com/listinfo.cgi/framers-frameusers.com Send administrative questions to [email protected]
