RE: How to Create Bibliography in FM?

2014-12-11 Thread Craig, Alison
In your position, the first thing I would do is look for a bibliographic format used by a reputable journal in a relevant field of study/industry. That way you don't have to decide what looks good, you just have to follow an accepted style. Alison Alison Craig | Technical Documentation Lead U

Yes! I use bibLaTeX and LaTeX for articles like this too. Of course, this is not WYSIWYG, and you have to learn LaTeX, but the PDF output is super clean and consistent indeed. To edit LaTeX input files, I highly recommend TeXStudio - the virtually instantaneous PDF generation (with side-by-side

Hi, FM has never really been that great with such tasks. If it is an article you are writing in which you are going to cite references and you want a coherent style, then I would suggest using bibTeX/LaTeX or bibLaTeX/LaTeX. However if you are wedded to FM then you can export your text from F

Don't use the footnote feature. Create a bibliography_entry paragraph format including an autonumber, then use a cross-reference in running text. Then you can cross-reference the same entry as many times as you like. On Thu, Dec 11, 2014 at 12:34 PM, Orly Zimmerman wrote: > HI All, > > I have bee

HI All, I have been given a task to create a bibliography for an article I'm writing. I would like to use Framemaker, but I have no idea how I get all the footnotes on the last pages of the file or in an appendix file as opposed to on the page where the footnote was created. I don't mind writin

Hello Maeli, The move from MS Word to FrameMaker is good news, but why the choice for unstructured FM ? The type of document you are hoping to create would be ideally created in structured FrameMaker. Using huge numbers of variables in FM is going to make the author's life hell and is not going

Preventing a URL from wrapping over 2 lines

Hi Framers, Do any of you know of a way to prevent a URL from wrapping over 2 lines, without using a forced line break?? I have several places in my document where FM will automatically break a URL and wrap it across 2 lines if there isn't enough room in the paragraph, for example: http://admin.
