I know it's an old chestnut, but this is maybe a new twist.
I am working with a template that's had a bit of history, and has some color
definitions that I *know* aren't used, such as Pantone shades. However, when I
ask FrameMaker to delete such a color, it tells me it's used in the document.
Thanks for the replies to this - I haven't done much template creation as yet
but at least I know this is possible.
Many thanks

Thanks, that does work. But one problem is that reduces the cell insets for
all cells in the table and causes text in other cells to run too close
together. That was an issue in the original Word document that I was tasked
to fix in the frame document. The whole document now looks great in

any way to look inside imported graphics, so it's possible you may try

Hi Bjørn...
In ExtendScript (and FrameScript) you can set properties on the Open
function to ignore missing fonts and bad references (among other things)
.. so that could be a viable option.

What Matt and some others have mentioned is correct: The Table Cell tab
in Paragraph Designer allows for individual cell margins and it even
accepts negative numbers, so you can adjust the margins for just that
one cell instead of affecting the entire table, as you do in Table
Designer.

AFAIK, there are *no* FM10-specific books out (yet).
