Modifying FM's default R/L master pages

[Gay Alson]

Hello, Framers,
FrameMaker imposes Right/Left master pages that can’t be deleted, although they 
can be modified—or so I thought.
In one template, I changed the orientation of the default R/L master pages from 
Portrait to Landscape. However, after PDFing a book consisting of several 
chapters, some using the modified Right/Left and others using the default 
(portrait) Right/Left master pages, the result is all Portrait pages.
To me this indicates that the PDFing procedure applied the same master pages to 
all pages. Is there a way around this?
(Previously I used custom Landscape Right and Left pages but that caused other 
problems, which I hoped to avoid by just using default R  L master pages that 
had been modified. )
Any wisdom will be greatly appreciated.
TIA,
~~Gay

RE: Adobe TCS/FrameMaker Survey?

[Maxwell Hoffmann]

Framers,

I posted full information on the survey with the link on May 29th. Evidently it 
didn't go through. I did get an acknowledgement that the process was complete. 
Sorry that no one seemed to receive it.

Here is the full link:
http://adobetechcommsurvey.campaignsandevents.com/

It expires 11:55 pm Pacific Time, today, June 5th.

Yes, a few of us received requests from Adobe marketing and management to 
forward that invite and promote via other social outlets.

I'm happy to see that they're gathering opinions from the TC community at 
large, as well as from the FM- and TCS-specific communities.

They ask some pointed questions, and give a chance for candid responses. I hope 
anyone with an opinion about interface, bug fixes, and a perceived lack of 
customer input will participate!

Much like voting for political office in the US, regardless of whether you 
expect the poll to impact the product, if ya don't participate, you shouldn't 
complain (much!).

RE: straightforward approach for adding icons to paragraph tag? (no tables, macros, or multiple tags, please)

[Syed Zaeem Hosain (syed.hos...@aeris.net)]

 I don't need any flexibility. These are the only two tags that will ever need 
 icons.

Then, yes, my approach would be overkill for your case, I suppose. :)

FWIW, I have these paragraph formats available in all my documents. Including 
both the auto-number method (and which also involves using side-heads since I 
want the auto-number text to be at the left side of the paragraph) _and_ my 
character format method ... I have been using both for years now.

And, knowledge of the methods might benefit others (perhaps for new documents 
where the work to add them to existing documents is not large), since I have 
had a number of people ask for that sample FM file I had offered in a previous 
response.

 If you mean one paragraph format and one character format (if you want to 
 use an icon), then, yes, that is true.

 But my approach gives you more flexibility in one way. Using an autonumber 
 requires a _separate_ paragraph format for each type of icon you want - i.e., 
 each with its own auto-number sequence. That can work, of course, but if you 
 have enough _different_ icons, then my approach is simpler, I believe (as 
 long as the icons are all from in a single given font - like ZapfDingbats for 
 example).

RE: Modifying FM's default R/L master pages

[Gay Alson]

As it turns out, a MIF-wash of the chapter containing the R/L master pages that 
were modified to landscape orientation **SEEMS** to solve the problem...

(That is, unless it turns out to be a procedure required sporadically for 
future book updates...in which case, I'll repost  :))
