RE: Easiest way to rename all linked graphics without having torescale?

Hello Verner If you open the MIF file in a text editor, you can search for a graphic name (from the left column of your table) and replace it with the corresponding new name. Then save the MIF and open it in FrameMaker. I don't know of an easier way. Regards, Roger Shuttleworth London, Canada
