RE: Finding styles with a space after the name

Yikes. The deeper I go, the more I find. So, in a small mif file with just NotePad, I did find the style with the space in the name and did (sadly) find a font size difference that makes me think it might just be in a table style definition. So I created one of each table style in a separate fi

Re: Finding styles with a space after the name

Yeah, I was going to say, have you tried MIF washing? That might correct invalid tag names. On Wed, Sep 24, 2014 at 10:59 AM, Syed Zaeem Hosain (syed.hos...@aeris.net) wrote: > Ø Hmm, well, the style with the space doesn't appear in the para catalog, > so I'm not sure I can apply it. I may have

RE: Finding styles with a space after the name

? Hmm, well, the style with the space doesn't appear in the para catalog, so I'm not sure I can apply it. I may have to go the mif route. Not my favorite thing. Please don't be worried about MIF ... it is actually very safe. Indeed, quite often, many ills with FM binaries can be discovered and

RE: Finding styles with a space after the name

Create a new, arbitrary paragraph. Apply the mystery style to it. Examine its characteristics. Keep or delete the style as appropriate. Or save the file as MIF and use a text editor to look for the style name with the errant space inside the style name delimiters and analyze the specified charac

Re: Finding styles with a space after the name

See if you can find a tool to delete unused styles - that may shorten your job. I can't get at my FrameMaker at the moment, but I'm sure you can search for a style. Then just open the paragraph designer for each and look for differences. --- Peter On 2014-09-24 17:13, LGLists wrote: FM

RE: Way to apply style to * paragraphs

Ah, yes, got it. Rick also brought this to my attention in a call. My assumption is that they're not real overrides, but I'm only working in a copy of files now, and will likely have to repeat my whole process on this on the real files, as they are currently going through an editing phase. So, I'm

RE: Way to apply style to * paragraphs

The * shows that an override has been made - this may or may not be needed. If you re-apply the style and discard overrides that change will be lost forever. Work on a copy of the file and compare old with new afterwards, or create a PDF from the whole book and use that as your reference to sp

RE: Way to apply style to * paragraphs

Hmm, please help me understand more about this problem. How will I lose formatting? I think the * styles are the correct ones, just somehow have the * on them. Thanks! ~ Linda G. Gallagher TechCom Plus, LLC lindag at techcomplus dot com www.techcomplus.com 303-450-907

Re: Way to apply style to * paragraphs

The potential problem is that you'll lose a lot of formatting that's necessary but applied incorrectly. On Wed, Sep 24, 2014 at 7:50 AM, LGLists wrote: > Aha! I'll give that a try. > > > ~ > Linda G. Gallagher > TechCom Plus, LLC > lindag at techcomplus dot com > www.techc

RE: Way to apply style to * paragraphs

The styles are right, though they may be changing with the cleanup I'll be doing, but now I just want to all be properly applied. I'm going to try Rick's suggestion and see if that works. Thanks! ~ Linda G. Gallagher TechCom Plus, LLC lindag at techcomplus dot com
