RE: Book Files import in random order

Ok, thanx. I usually don't import large numbers of files at one time so I guess I've never noticed this before. I could understand if it was in complete reverse order, but reversing the order except for the last in the series is quite curious. In any case I'm sure all this will be fixed in Windows

Hi Darren It depends on how you add the files to your book and where you put your mouse pointer to drag the files into your book. Try the following: 1. Arrange Windows Explorer and FrameMaker side by side (tile vertically). 2. In Windows Explorer, select all the files which you wish to

Hi All, When I print a framemaker book, I first save it as a PS file and then use acrobat distiller to transform the PS file into a PDF. I have been fiddling with the Adobe PDF settings for Distiller to see if I can get better quality graphics. However, considering the size of the documents I am

Hi Dov, Couple questions for you. Which type of downsampling: bicubic or average? For JPEG200 do you have a recommend tile size? Lastly, is the fact that I am mostly using PNG graphics that are going to be displayed on the screen affect how you would set this up? Thanks, Joe On Fri, Feb 13,

RE: Acrobat Distiller Settings for Images
