Hi Framers:
I am getting this message
Book is not self-consistent

It does, actually, but since we make sure that the text is black, it
doesn't LOOK like it's clickable. People are so accustomed to links
being blue and/or underlined that they never think to hover over text

I'd be checking if it was the ToC or the IX that was causing it to choke first.
Then I would create a dummy book and gradually add file by file (generating the

Remove the conditions, set the condition indicators the same across all files,

In the first case you describe, the message you would see is something like

Hi All,
Recently updated to Adobe FrameMaker 11 (within TCS4, which was an upgrade to
my existing TCS 2.5) and all was going well, kind of - until now.
Now with my current project due to be uploaded at the translators asap – a
small Technical Overview publication, consisting of 11 files

Hi Richard,
Thank you for your response! I think you are right. :-)
In any case, when Framemaker becomes irresponsive while performing something,
I would like to know if it crashed miserably or just became
temporarily irresponsive. There is no way to discover that rather than sit
