Hello,

translate some documents into French with SDL Edit, which allows *.mif
files as input. When I start a new translation, I select the *.mif file,

Some standard document formats need line numbers as part of their

Hello, Framers!
I have several (OK, 50) short Framemaker files that I want to combine
into what will be Chapter 3 of a book file. The book file has already
been created (it's for a user guide that is updated from year to year),
and the chapter already exists ... I've just revamped the chapter
Dear Edwin,
the usual process (for translation using Trados Workbench or TagEditor, I do
not know about SDL Edit) is:

(translation using TagEditor) via the STagger for FrameMaker filter. You

been subsequent efforts to to create a plug-in that achieves these things.
When I want line numbering I use
Hi Art,
As I said, I have not done it myself. But if you have the script and it works
perhaps you could provide Peter with the requisite info on how to get it?
I have not had the need in FM ;)

There's been lots of discussion on how this could be achieved with
varying degrees of difficulty, but I wonder if there's

Well,
Your plan should work fine. I'm assuming that you're planning to
convert all the text inserts to text after you import in order to
build a new chapter because it would be easier to manage and reconcile
tags.
But for an alternative you can keep them as referenced insets if you

If you _really_ mean all:
1) Open Paragraph Designer.
2) From the Commands list, select Set Window to As Is.
