Oh, there's a blast from the past. In FM7 there was some issue that meant I had to open all the files in a book when saving as PDF. That was one of the incentives for putting all the chapters in a single .fm file. On Thu, Jan 9, 2020 at 8:06 AM Lin Sims wrote: > > Holding down Shift, not Ctrl. :D

I've never used a comment marker. I didn't even know they existed, but that's mostly because I don't use markers much. I should probably look into their functionality. For me, I just create a condition tag for comments because that makes it easy to find and edit comments. On Thu, Jan 9, 2020 at 1
