Do those reference page frames all have tags? (select frame-Object properties) You can't create two reference page frames with the same tag (according to my quick test, at least). This means your paragraph format will pick up the information from one frame only. So the reference page may be a mess, but it shouldn't affect the formatting of your body pages. And since there doesn't appear to be a reference pages mapping table, is it reasonable to copy the master pages from my old template file into a new document (that does have all the default reference pages and thus includes the UnstructMasterPageMaps table)? That should work, yes. Harro de Jong Triview ___ You are currently subscribed to framers as arch...@mail-archive.com. Send list messages to framers@lists.frameusers.com.

Re: Strange Happenings with Reference Pages
Have you in the past, imported styles from other documents?

Re: Strange Happenings with Reference Pages
Hi Rick, I did exactly that... new doc, format-page layout-apply..., then imported my old doc's master pages (and everything else but reference pages) into the new. Given the odd behavior of the old doc's one reference page, I thought this the safer approach. Now I just have to make the pages break like they're supposed to... working on top-of-page settings, correct tag names, etc. Having to do a few workarounds but otherwise looks like this is the final piece to streamlining my annual stress over creating this project. :-) Thanks!
