Draft material in BSPerf.fm table rows - promote to Experimental?

2015-05-21 Thread Fausset, Marilyn
Brett (et al), I found DRAFT material in tables in the BS Performance profile. Should these be promoted to Experimental? I've screen-capped these DRAFT rows in the tables below. Please advise. Thanks. Marilyn [cid:image001.png at 01D093C1.0A341120] [cid:image002.png at 01D093C1.D1302930]

Resize all table widths to new page size (was letter, now A4)?

2013-04-22 Thread Fausset, Marilyn

Problems comparing large books: due to memory issues--or what?

2012-08-20 Thread Fausset, Marilyn
I have been comparing several FM books (specs bound for ISO) that are large with lots of docs that contain many referenced Visio's and text insets. I have converted the text insets (MIFs full of tables) to text so table entries will compare. But the compare function is not consistently working.
