(OT) - inquiery for pdf editing in MSWord
Hello all, In your opinion, what is curtrently the best tool to open (convert)pdf documents in MSWord and edit the contents? Please send your recommendations off list, thanks. (I am not searching for batch conversion, but for 'one time' open and edit documents that are only available in PDF without having the original file. Round tripping is also not required, we'll save the results in MSWord and print to PDF again.) kind regards, Wim Hooghwinkel [EMAIL PROTECTED] DTP and XML Management Scriptware bv http://www.scriptware.nl tel : +31 (0)23 548 48 84 fax : +31 (0)23 548 48 85 http://www.scriptware.nl [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ You are currently subscribed to Framers as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send list messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit http://lists.frameusers.com/mailman/options/framers/archive%40mail-archive.com Send administrative questions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit http://www.frameusers.com/ for more resources and info.
How are text insets updated?
Hi, I copied a FrameMaker file with some text insets into another folder and overwrote the existing file. Only the content of the text insets had changed. I did not copy the text insets files. Therefore the text insets were unresolved (which I expected). However the FrameMaker file displayed the text inset files of the file which I had overwritten. Shouldn't FrameMaker store the content of text insets and just not update them if they become unresolved?

Frame-webworks publisher
Hi! I'm converting a Frame book (6.0) to Webworks Publisher and am having trouble with a character style, particularly a macro in a character style. Is this an appropriate forum to ask about that or is there a more specific webworks site? js ___ You are currently subscribed to Framers as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send list messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit http://lists.frameusers.com/mailman/options/framers/archive%40mail-archive.com Send administrative questions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit http://www.frameusers.com/ for more resources and info.

RTF 1.6 filter hint revealed!
Just for the record, after some hours of frustrating guess-work, the filter ID AKA 'filter hint' of the 'new' RTF export filter was revealed to me. It's actually almost documented in the maker.ini file, but I suspect that I'm not the only who couldn't read between the lines. '0001ADBIRTF ' There you are. ADBI is Adobe India. The hints from maker.ini: --- [APIClients] ;ClientName=ClientType, [facet, format_id, vendor_id, display_name, ] ; description, path, mode, optional file extension for filter ; when ClientType is filter type, facet, format_id, vendor_id and ; display_name are required. ; mode can be one of maker, structured, all. it determines for which ; mode(s) to load this client. ; for example, RTF=TextImport, RTF, RTF, FAPI, RTF, Rich Text Format ; (RTF) Import, filters\rtfimprt.dll,all,^.rtf Microsoft RTF1.6=ExportFilter, RTF, RTF, ADBI, Microsoft RTF1.6, RTF Export, filters\ExportUtility.dll, all, ^.rtf --- The syntax of a filter hint is described in general on page 663, and the FS_SaveFileTypeHint is described on page 154 of the FDK Programmer's Reference (for FrameMaker7.0). A filter hint consists of 6 fields (without spaces between them): record_vers vendor format_id platform filter_vers filter_name The first 3 fields are each 4 bytes, space-padded if shorter than 4 bytes; this 12-byte string is what's needed for F_ApiSave() and corresponding commands in e.g. FrameScript. The only part missing from maker.ini is the 'record_vers', which is apparently always '0001'.

Formatting cross-references
Except for the font family, superscript, and subscript properties, FrameMaker does not replicate any character formatting from the target of the cross-reference. This is especially problematic when _part_ of a target has a character format applied, as in your case. Any work-arounds for this are non-trivial. For example, I've seen companies with product names like "FastStart", which occurred frequently in headings. In the text of any cross-references to these headings, the product name would lose its distinctive formatting. Workarounds for this include -- - re-write headings to avoid using the product name - accept a default formatting for cross-reference text - define a new font using a program like Fontographer for the italicized portion of the product name If I'm missing another obvious solution, I would love to hear about it. -Alan Doug wrote: > Is there a way to apply a character format to the text of a > cross-reference?
