RE: unresolved x-ref to a heading in a text inset
An even easier method, which lets you keep the heading in the inset, is to initially insert the cross-reference marker in the inset. After the inset is updated in the container file, re-create the cross-reference to the container file, which will use the marker contained inside the inset. It won't matter how many manuals you have or where you use the inset, and you can keep headings with their associated text.

X-refs to text insets require that the container file be specified for the inset. Since the inset is in two different manuals (Manual A and Manual B), when you set a reference to the inset in Manual A, then Manual A's file name and location become part of that x-reference, so that's why the x-ref becomes unresolved for Manual B. Conversely, when you set a reference to the inset in Manual B, then Manual B's file name and location become part of that x-reference, so that's why the x-ref becomes unresolved for Manual A. There are a variety of ways to solve this (framescript, manually making two x-refs with conditional text, etc.) but the most consistent and easiest way is NOT to have headings in insets. Keep the headings in the container file and import the inset less the heading. This way, you can set up x-refs to headings to two different manuals as you would always in FM and not have this problem. Let me know if you need any more help.

Save as HTML
Hi all, It is possible to specify the output file names of the .htm files created when saving as HTML? FrameMaker generates the file names based on the .book or .fm file and then appends numbers to the end for any additional pages - bookname.htm, bookname1.htm, bookname2.htm, and so on. I'd like to be able to specify unique file names, but couldn't find anything in the documentation on this. I tried a couple of markers, but haven't found anything yet. I'm using Frame 7.1.

RE: FM To PowerPoint
Do you need all of the bells and whistles in PowerPoint? If not, just use FrameMaker and PDF. Use disconnected pages with three workflows - one for the slide material, one below that for viewer notes, and one below that for presentation notes. Generate a PDF of all three workflows for the presentation notes. Crop the bottom workflow out leaving just the two top workflows and save that PDF as the viewer notes. Crop both of the bottom workflows out and save that PDF as the presentation. Run the presentation PDF in full screen mode. Your situation will determine if you can live without the PowerPoint bells and whistles, but if you can, it saves tons of time. If you can'twell good luck!
