Index woes -SOLVED
Well, I figured it out. I am indeed using the most recent version of ePublisher, and I am using the index generated by the normal online help generation procedure. One was something stupid I should have thought of, The other was a little odd and maybe cautionary. The missing links were links that had been conditional text, made visible, but never un-conditioned. I should have remembered that I had conditioned part of my own book! The double-entry issue was weird. I had a heading "VASCO Integration" with two subentries. I had another heading "VASCO integration" (small "i") with one subentry. ePublisher duplicated the first main entry, and then combined all three subentries under each copy of the main entry. When I renamed integration to Integration and regenerated, I ended up with one main entry and three subentries, as I wanted.

Release Date for FrameMaker 8?
Given that the point releases have been a year or two or longer apart, I think you're pretty safe.

Hi all, Anyone have a clue as to Adobe's plans for the next major release of FrameMaker? I'm trying to convince my boss to upgrade us to 7.2 from 7.1 (ooohh...multiple undos!), but he wants to know first if a major upgrade is around the corner.

Release Date for FrameMaker 8?
In a lecture at Silicon Valley STC API SIG, the technical honcho at Adobe fielded questions on where FrameMaker was going. A few points: * Enhancement of structured features for single sourcing, reuse of content, and access to content across enterprise * More support for XML and XSLT formats * Creation of Help from XML/XSLT The $200 upgrade works from not only 7.1, but also from 6.0. Therefore, for enhanced book features and multiple undos and redos, it's worth every buck.

managing condition tags
Hi All, First, a big thank you for all the previous answers to my posts! The knowledgebase held by the users of this list is one of my most valuable resources. I have received more time-saving and insightful tips here than anywhere. Our department is growing by leaps and bounds, and we have the opportunity to help set up a new documentation team. We can use our templates as a springboard for the new team, but I would like to clean out all the condition tags and variables that they won't be needing. I have set up a dummy doc in the template book that uses only the condition tags and variables that are needed in the new templates. I then used Toolbox to remove the unused user variables from the book's variable catalog. Now, I'm just left with...what to do to clean out the Conditional Text catalog Is there a similar tool that will clean out the unused condition tags? If not, is there at least a tool, plugin, or FrameScript that can provide a report of all the condition tags used in the book? I think it is possible, because View > Show/Hide Conditional Text does display all the tags in the book. I can use FindChangeFormatsBatch to remap the unnecessary condition tags to different tags or to a single tag, but then I'd have to open each template file to manually delete each unnecessary condition tag, one at a time. Surely one of my colleagues has handled this situation adeptly in the past and can point me in the right direction...? Thanks! Rene Stephenson -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

managing condition tags
Hi All, First, a big thank you for all the previous answers to my posts! The knowledgebase held by the users of this list is one of my most valuable resources. I have received more time-saving and insightful tips here than anywhere. Our department is growing by leaps and bounds, and we have the opportunity to help set up a new documentation team. We can use our templates as a springboard for the new team, but I would like to clean out all the condition tags and variables that they won't be needing. I have set up a dummy doc in the template book that uses only the condition tags and variables that are needed in the new templates. I then used Toolbox to remove the unused user variables from the book's variable catalog. Now, I'm just left with...what to do to clean out the Conditional Text catalog Is there a similar tool that will clean out the unused condition tags? If not, is there at least a tool, plugin, or FrameScript that can provide a report of all the condition tags used in the book? I think it is possible, because View > Show/Hide Conditional Text does display all the tags in the book. I can use FindChangeFormatsBatch to remap the unnecessary condition tags to different tags or to a single tag, but then I'd have to open each template file to manually delete each unnecessary condition tag, one at a time. Surely one of my colleagues has handled this situation adeptly in the past and can point me in the right direction...? Thanks! Rene Stephenson -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

Global Table settings
Folks Just wondering if there is a way to set all tables to the width of a column all at once, instead of having to select each table and resize? What I have is content we import in into a 1-column proofing template. Since the tables that come in with this information are different sizes, we were wondering if there was a global setting to fit all tables in one column -- 7.25" in width. This would help with editing and proofing. Right now we have to select each table and use the resize function to get the table adjusted correctly. Any help would be appreciated. -- Scott White Media Production Manager AlaMark Technologies 210-704-8239 swhite at alamark.com

printing framemaker documents
If you are printing from FM to a hard copy printer, no, there isn't a way to automatically orient pages in different directions. I think the assumption is that you can rotate the piece of paper or the bound book.

Re: printing framemaker documents
If I print the framemaker files seperately, then the orientation is correct. If I print all files via a book then everything is portrait, the text is correct positioned on the page but I have to rotate the page 90 degrees in acrobat then to be able to read it.

So that a landscape page in an otherwise portrait book/file is rotated to print landscape? Or are you asking about something else?
