Mif2Go Help?

[Hales-Crotchett, Nicole]

Hi All,



I'm working with the demo version of Mif2Go so I can create a Word version of 
my tech manuals (long story short: ancient customer demands Word for delivery). 
I'm having some difficulty getting the output to look like my Frame files... it 
doesn't help any that the magic huh? button doesn't seem to call up any of 
the help files (can't display the web page).



So here's a general plea: tips? Tricks? Suggestions?

How can I get one Word (or RTF, I guess) file for the book as a whole instead 
of one file per .fm file?

How can I get my graphics to show up at the right size?

???



I'm on Frame 7.1, windows platform. My company is going to buy licenses soon, 
but I'm the lucky one who gets to play with the demo, learn how to make it 
work, and then train my department. Except I'm stuck.



Thanks in advance; feel free to email me directly if it's too much clutter for 
the list.



Cheers!

Nicole

Quick Access Bar Not Responding

[Hales-Crotchett, Nicole]

Hi,

 

I've got two writers with the same unique problem. They've both had
FrameMaker 7.1 installed on Windows XP machines. Neither of them can
rotate the quick access tool bar by hitting the blue up/down arrows or
by choosing next/previous from the center button. Any ideas before I
call our help desk for a re-install?

 

Okay to reply to me directly... I get the list on digest normally.

Total Page Count on Title Page

[Hales-Crotchett, Nicole]

Hi all,



My manager requested that I add a total page count on the title page for
a book and I'm running into a hitch. FM help file shows a way to do this
with consecutive numbering for each chapter, but we use modified
MIL-Spec here - i.e., each page number consists of a chapter and the
page number, and restarts for each chapter. Any suggestions? I'm using
Frame 7.1 if that matters.

Total Page Count on Title Page

[Hales-Crotchett, Nicole]

Hi David,



Tried that - it only reflects a page count for that individual file, not
for the entire book.

Nicole,

I haven't done it, but, according to the book, the Page Count variable
(<$lastpagenum>), without the parens, should work.



Try putting that in your footer, or wherever on the cover, and see what
it gives you.



You should be able to put it anywhere, except on a Master Page.

Nope. Nicole said this is a folio-numbered book (chapter-page). If by
Page building block, you mean <$pagenum>, that will just give you the
number of the last page in the last file -- "4" if it's a 4-page index.
If you're thinking of an xref format named Page, in a folio-numbered
book that's probably defined as <$chapnum>-<$pagenum> -- maybe "IX-4"
for that index.

For a quick solution, David's idea of adding it in Acrobat will work.
Or, heck, use Acrobat to determine the page count, then add it in FM and
re-PDF. 

A longer-term, more extensible solution probably involves a script or
plugin. In fact, I vaguely recall there being a FrameScript script to do
this, but don't have time to track it down at the moment. 

HTH!
Richard

Here a shortcut for the PDF if you have Acrobat Professional. In FM put
some placeholder text on the cover such as Page count: 999. Open the PDF
in Professional, select Tools \ Advanced Editing \ Touchup Text Tool,
and change 999 to the correct page count. Sometimes there are problems
with fonts, but its worth a shot.

FrameMaker Index of Referenced Graphics

[Hales-Crotchett, Nicole]

Hi,

 

Back in January, Mr. Combs offered the following great solution to creating a 
list of referenced graphics in a document. 

 

Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2008 08:34:14 -0700

From: Combs, Richard [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Subject: RE: List of linked graphic file locations

 

Nope, if they're really _linked_ (imported by reference), it's a piece of cake. 
From the book window, with the last file in the book selected, select Add  
Index of  References. In the Set Up dialog box, move Imported Graphics to the 
Include References box. Click Add. Voila! At the end of your book, FM adds an 
alphabetical index of referenced graphics. Each entry shows the complete path 
and file name. 

 

HTH!

Richard

 

I was wondering if anyone has a QD solution that would create not an 
alphabetical list, but a list in order by page number. Here’s my code from the 
Reference Pages:

 

1, 2–3

 

$symbols$numerics$alphabetics

-‑–—

Level1IOR

openObjectId $relfilename:$ObjectType $ObjectId

$autorange$chapnum‑$pagenum

 

I’ve been tinkering around with this all morning and can’t figure out how to 
bend it to my will. Any suggestions?

 

FrameMaker 7.1 unstructured, Windoze XP Pro.

 

Thanks in advance,

Nicole

RE: continuing table headings

If you set your table up with header rows they should automatically
repeat. If you have a table that doesn't do this, try going to Table 
Add Rows or Columns. Select To Heading in the drop down for Add 1
Row(s): and click Add.

When you insert a table, make sure you have at least one Heading Row.

RE: Indexes - a bit off topic

[Hales-Crotchett, Nicole]

 Hate to say it, but according to both Webster's New Collegiate
Dictionary and the Oxford English Dictionary (OED), appendix is
pluralized using either -ices or -ixes, regardless of definition.
Popular usage and preference may dictate differently, but the English
language does not differentiate.

Indexes - a bit off topic

[Hales-Crotchett, Nicole]

 Hate to say it, but according to both Webster's New Collegiate
Dictionary and the Oxford English Dictionary (OED), "appendix" is
pluralized using either "-ices" or "-ixes," regardless of definition.
Popular usage and preference may dictate differently, but the English
language does not differentiate.

Cheers!
Nicole

I was recently told by an editor that the plural of appendix (a book
appendix) is appendixes. Appendices is the plural of appendix, the organ
in your body.

I've never heard that before and wonder how true it is.

Page Number in Paragraph Style

Hi,

I'd like to set up a paragraph format to use for my footer that contains

use $pagenum (or $curpagenum, or if I paste in the $curpagenum
variable) in the autonumber format for the style, and place the footer
on the master page, I don't get the page number (just the text
$pagenum or #). Any tips?

Crashing Books & Find/Change

[Hales-Crotchett, Nicole]

Sorry for the potential duplication; first one didn't post. 



Frame 7.1, Win XP Pro
?
Has anyone run into the issue of a book occasionally crashing after running a 
find/change? ?Occasionally after completing I'll get a message telling me that 
"FrameMaker has detected a serious problem and must quit", and then a message 
that reads "The instruction at '0x00341469' referenced memory at '0x'. 
The memory could not be 'read'." Clicking 'ok" closes it all out.
?
The FrameLog has a whole lot of information in it I don't understand; nothing 
clearly pointing to a cause. I've run into this a few times; generally I'll 
just re-start Frame and get back to what I was doing. ??
?
Any hints?

OT: IETM Research Help

[Hales-Crotchett, Nicole]

Greetings!

I'm sorry to take up space on the list, but I really need some advice on where 
to turn.

My management has tasked me with researching IETM (software and development). 
Currently we're paper-based. I got my department to switch to FrameMaker from 
Word last year for our technical manual production, so while I've gone through 
as much training as is available via Adobe, I'm relatively new to the Frame 
world. I'm even newer to the world of IETMs. 

I have a slew of questions, but don't want to bother the list with an off 
topic. Does anybody have any advice of where I can turn?

Thanks in advance-
Nicole
