Hi Rod,
I frequently have to change page size, as the project managers discuss options
for brochures, quick starts...
If you don't want to develop a different template, you could give the following
a bash (as suggested to me by my excellent partner):
1. Calculate the size of the text frames
Put the document name in a paragraph at the beginning of the document
and format it with the highest-level paragraph tag included in the
TOC.

Hi Dick,
Any modern version of FrameMaker should support jpegs; at least 7.2 and
higher. jpegs are suitable for printing photographs but are less than ideal
for line art, text, etc. Also, the jpeg format supports compression, so your
