FM12 bug - updating File Info

2015-05-21 Thread John Sgammato
I just discovered a minor but annoying bug in FM12 with the File Info feature, under the File menu. If you have a book with some chapters, the book file and the chapters can have File Info, a set of 8 bits of metadata like Title, Subject, Keywords, etc. Each chapter can have its own File Info, and

Actually, in most cases the place to start looking for the problem is about 2 pages *before* the page that is indicated when the error occurs. Much of the processing of a PDF file is pipelined, so that at least one or two pages (N-2 and N-1) are still being worked on when the application reports

I suggested that the printer provide more details on the problem because it would appear that their rendering engine doesn't like something...duh... similar to what Distiller does when it encounters an error. Since Alan doesn't get an error when distilling, he would not be able to do more than h

This is a vexing type of problem. It may be a non-obvious corrupt graphic or other object. I recommend "divide and conquer", either in FrameMaker 12 or in Acrobat. - Split the file in half. - Identify the half-file that produces the error. - Split the error-prone half-file again. - Repeat until

Alan,I would ask them if they could be a little more specific on when the problem occurs.I would expect that the print job is stopping on a specific page.Knowing that you can zero in on the page that is actually causing the problem. On Thursday, May 21, 2015 8:21 AM, Alan Salo (Ariens P

PDF problems

2015-05-21 Thread Alan Salo (Ariens Plant 1)
Hello all, I have a problem that is perplexing me. There are two PDF files that our printer cannot compose to get them on the press. They say that the files are unsupported file type or damaged. As background we send numerous files to them weekly, all using the same process with no issues. It

RE: cross-ref to marker(text)

2015-05-21 Thread Keith Soltys
You can do it with the newlink/gotolink hypertext markers. Use the newlink marker to create the anchor name for the link, placed in the file and at the location you are linking to (I usually put mine in the section heading). Inside the text of the link itself, put a gotolink marker with the form

cross-ref to marker(text)

2015-05-21 Thread Wim Hooghwinkel - idtp
Hi all, unstructured FM. Can I make a cross-ref to a (cross-ref, other) marker and display the marker text? Alternative could be to create a hypertext marker - but how can a Hypertext marker point to a another FM document that is part of the same book? Any other suggestions for the above? Cli

Re: Setting up page numbers that restart with chapter number

2015-05-21 Thread Shmuel
It sounds like you are putting all the chapters in one FrameMaker file. Generally people who use FrameMaker put each chapter in a separate file and add all the files to a Book file. Are you doing that? If yes, then each chapter automatically restarts the numbering unless
