Re: [Framers] preventing 2-word product name from line breaks ?

I was thinking that perhaps it would be possible to create rules that define the variable suitably for each doctype, and in each specific context, within a document set, if one was using structured FM. However, in an enterprise that prohibits all user-installed add-ons, even if structured FM were

If you don't want to update all the variables, create a file containing only the variable(s) you want to update and import that. On Wed, Apr 6, 2016 at 2:55 PM, Monique Semp wrote: >> You can update a variable in all .fm files in a .book with a single >> import. > > >

You can update a variable in all .fm files in a .book with a single import. Yes, but that presupposes that you want *all* the variables from the source file. But in my case, I have different variables in different FrameMaker templates (for frontmatter, ToC, chapters), with only some

[Framers] preventing 2-word product name from line breaks ?

Hello, Framers, (Using FrameMaker 2015, but I don’t think that matters.) I have a 2-word product name that I don’t want to break across lines. I know that I could always use a non-breaking space between the words to prevent line breaks. But that’s hard to remember to do all the time. And the
