Re: Incorporating external documents containing tables, into a book
Hi John Ugh. I assume you need consecutive page numbering, bookwide TOC, links, bookmarks etc? I don't know a good solution, but one ugly workaround is to combine the files at the PDF stage instead of the FM stage. To do this, you'd futz the page numbering in Word so each file started on the desired page, create 8-page FM placeholder chapters in the FM book, make your PDFs from FM and Word, use Acrobat to replace the placeholder pages with the correct pages, and manually fix links and bookmarks.

Re: Incorporating external documents containing tables, into a book
I cannot combine the PDFs as each external document goes to a different chapter. I'd have to futz the page numbers 25 times.

Re: Incorporating external documents containing tables, into a book
If the Word content is stable and you can lock it down, I'd try: 1. Save as RTF 2. Import it into Frame, maybe using the Japanese RTF import filter (I havean't tried that in 11 yet) if the regular RTF can't cope. 3. Save Frame files out as MIF to clean them up, 4. Open and manually break the tables to get the pagination correct. I suspect it'll mean one short table segment per page, but you can fudge the numbering if necessary.

Incorporating external documents containing tables, into a book
I cannot combine the PDFs as each external document goes to a different chapter. I'd have to futz the page numbers 25 times. That's not the hard part...I'd then have to manually edit the PDF output of the book to merge into the deliverableya know...this might be a last-resort optioncreate a place holder, then use Acrobat to replace pages. hmm...let me think about this.

Incorporating external documents containing tables, into a book
If the Word content is stable and you can lock it down, I'd try: 1. Save as RTF 2. Import it into Frame, maybe using the Japanese RTF import filter (I havean't tried that in 11 yet) if the regular RTF can't cope. 3. Save Frame files out as MIF to clean them up, 4. Open and manually break the tables to get the pagination correct. I suspect it'll mean one short table segment per page, but you can fudge the numbering if necessary.

Incorporating external documents containing tables, into a book
How about exporting from FM to Word and using a master document to combine all the parts?
Does a FrameMaker Reader/Viewer exist?
Hi Christin, There used to be a product called FrameViewer that functioned much like Adobe Reader, but for Frame files (obviously). It was a LONG time ago when I used it (Frame v. 2 or 3). Not sure if it, or a comparable product is still available. You might contact Adobe and see. --Ben From: framers-bounces at lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Christin CG.

I believe Alan is correct about FM 5.5.6, and I'm pretty sure FrameViewer was discontinued before FM 6 came out. The "comparable product" ever since has been Acrobat/Adobe Reader. You can easily create a PDF of any FM document, complete with working links, and anyone can view it with the free Reader. So FrameViewer didn't seem to serve any useful purpose. Richard G.

On behalf of Adobe ... There hasn't been a FrameViewer product for many years, dating back to the era of FrameMaker 5.5.6 or so. And Richard is correct. PDF became Adobe's final form file format for viewing content from any Adobe application via our free Adobe Reader. - Dov [cid:image001.png at 01CE1C02.27690770] Dov Isaacs Principal Scientist Adobe Systems Incorporated +1 408.536.2896 (tel) +1 408.242.5161 (cell) isaacs at adobe.com<mailto:isaacs at adobe.com> 345 Park Avenue San Jose, CA 95110-2704 USA http://www.adobe.com<http://www.adobe.com/> Feel free to print this e-mail if your needs dictate hard copy.

There was an application called FrameViewer but it was discontinued long ago. If you have FrameMaker source and don't have a copy of FrameMaker, you can install a free trial version. On Fri, Mar 8, 2013 at 5:07 AM, Christin CG. Gudme wrote: > > Is there a FrameMaker Reader/Viewer?
