Hi, Lynne:
Thanks for confirming that my memory of FrameMaker's arcane quirks is
nearly as persistent as Dali's representation:

Doug,
Yes, you can define
Doug,
I agree with Lin, that it is more straightforward to avoid
"negative" tags that would have been used to indicate when you don't
want content included. Like him, I would use six tags: 40, 41, 42, 44,
PDF, and HTML and apply one or more of them to content that doesn't
appear in all
Lin,
Looks like that works. I had been trying to apply multiple condition tags
to the HTML (and PDF) sections, but that wasn't working. What worked was
applying a single condition tag that was named for the multiple conditions.
For instance, instead of applying the following four tags:
Thanks Lin, I'll give it a shot.

Err, by repeat for each book, I mean duplicate the expressions but editing
them appropriately. So Book 40, which is your special one, uses almost the
identical expression:
Book 44, PDF: not (40 or 41 or 42 or HTML) and not (44 and HTML)
Book 44, HTML: not (40 or 41 or 42 or PDF) and not (44 and
Conditioning text works best if you keep it consistent: all of your
conditions should be constructed either for the information you DO want to
appear in a specific document or for information you DON'T want to appear
in a specific document. Making some conditions for information you want in
and
Shouldn't be - you haven't got a serial number yet, so there's nothing tying

Hi, guys...I'm about 10 days into the trial period and my company has
approved the purchase.
It's going to take a few days. In the meantime, my hardware has developed
an issue and I'm pretty sure they are going to swap out my machine.
If they do that, am I going to have any issue getting FM
Nevermind. I misread.

If the chapter isn't needed in the book, then exclude the chapter from the
book. No conditional tagging needed.

Things are getting complicated.
I'm currently editing a chapter that is common to four books. The books
are 40, 41, 42, and 44. Some content isn't applicable to book 44, so I've
set up a condition tag named "Not 44".
The problematic content sections use the tags (Not 44+PDF) and (Not
44+HTML),
Peter,
Yes, multiple instances of FM can be running at the same time on
the same machine. I often have one instance in which I work on
application development and another in which I test the environment I
will provide to end users.
