Fred,
Thanks, but I am not talking about the on-screen appearance. I did not know
about this ini file setting, however, what I am referring to is the actual
PDF and hardcopy appearance.
And it only concerns the space character. Like I add 30 units of kerning

I use FrameMaker daily, for letters and a variety of business forms,
as documents to receive and organize internet information including
FrameUsers threads, and as a flexible receiver of pictures and stories
for pdf albums. I find these tasks unbearable in Word, just as writers

After deleting, for example, a text box and callout arrow, from an
anchored frame, a phantom image of the object is sometimes left behind.
It is as visually clear as the deleted object. I know the actual object
is gone, but the phantom image remains. I've tried "refresh"
(control-L) and saving
Long ago there was a product called FrameReader that enabled the user to
view but not edit .fm files. It was very inexpensive, in the $29.95
area.
I remember a printer I worked with in Boston bought it so they could
more easily work with my files.
These days I have no trouble with sending a PDF
Me again... Sarah O'Keefe sort of implies in the 'Complete Reference' that you
can apply structure to generated lists, but as it gets blown away the next time
the list is generated, it's best either not to bother, or do it last.
Here's the rub: one generated list document in my current
In the really old days, it was common to print FM files to PostScript
files using a PostScript printer driver provided or specified by the
print vendor.
PDF has changed how print vendors see the world, now. Instead of
having to learn zillions of quirky and not-so-quirky applications,
they
Steve,
Sure... Create a new element, we use Phrase, and use it to apply what
you apply now with character formats. Works like a champ. We have a
Bold, Emphasis, Superscript, as well as a few others. Character formats,
by themselves, don't work in structure, very well.

This may be overkill, but if you have FrameSLT
(www.weststreetconsulting.com), you can use it to simulate a generated list.
I tried it once just to see if it would work. And it did. It's not a
practical approach for most case. Unstructured generated lists seem to be
just fine for most structured
Steve,
There is no way to preserve the structure of a generated list, but given
the length and usual simplicity of formatting it is easy to rebuild the
structure whenever needed.
If you have control over the EDD, you can modify the content of the
"List of Figures" element so that individual
I have seen that happen occasionally as well. I discovered that switching to
the reference pages and back to the body pages clears it up.
Don't ask me why...

Hi!
Seems like I've found an odd bug with hyperlinks from generated files
when I "print" an unstructured FM book from FM 7.1 to PDF.
I have found that when I print a FM book to PDF, the page numbers in the
TOC and index are automatically converted to hyperlinks in the PDF. The
text of the entry
It's not a bug. It is behaving as designed. The active area (hot spot)
for a hyperlink extends from the hypertext marker until either a change
in formatting or a paragraph break is encountered. It works that way
when you manually insert a hyperlink, and it works that way when
FrameMaker inserts a
As Fred says, this is designed behavior. See Chapter 19, "Hypertext and
View-Only Documents" of the User Guide, particularly the "Preparing areas
for becoming active" section. Reading this won't necessarily solve your
problem, but at least you will understand what is happening.
