issues with some not working in pdf. At that time we turned on the links, which
generates Named Destinations all over the place, and the issue went away. We
decided to live with the bloated file size and more sluggish

Is anyone else working on exporting from FrameMaker to Confluence 4.x,
or actually doing it using anything other than Confluence's Word
import (which is slick but has some serious bugs) or WebWorks (which
generates Confluence 3.x wiki markup rather than 4.x XHTML)?
Hi Robert,
You could generate a list of paragraphs, save it to a text file, and use a
text editor that can sort lines and show duplicates. I use EditPad Pro and
it can do this.
If you want a more automated and "polished" way of doing it, I could write
you a FrameScript script to do it. If you are
