Cleaning unused conditionals from Frame docs

2008-01-15 Thread Diane Schaefer
I have many conditionals that are no longer used in my document set. I thought that I deleted them from the files, but they seem to have crept in again. I can't even remember at this point what they all are. Plus, it means deleting these conditionals from some 40-odd documents. Is there an

Kelly McDaniel asked: Why don't I have a watched folder setting in Distiller 8 on Win XP? Most likely you do not have a watched folder menu item because you are using the Standard version of Acrobat 8.0. Watched folders are only supported in the Professional and 3D versions of Acrobat 8.0.

Hi Kanti We've never used MIF fragments to create a new variable, only to change the values of existing variables. To do that, you just open the MIF fragment in FM, open your target book, select all the files in the book, and use File Import Formats to import the variable definitions from

You only need to muck with MIF files when importing variable formats because FM has this really annoying feature of not letting you remove the system variables, so a MIF fragment is the only way to make a "template" that doesn't have them. That's the problem with the "third variant" from Grant and
