What is the best way to use S1000D in Frame 8? Is the Application Pack from
Frame 7.2 still helpful? Is there something better out there from Adobe?

Make the master page text frame tall enough so that you can see the second

And sure enough -- in checking the text frame in question against
others, it is indeed higher. Many thanks...

Another trick is to make TWO header text frames - one on each side of
the master page (tall enough for two lines of text), and two header
paragraph format Header Left and Header Right, so I can independently
set font properties, justification, spacing, etc. for the different
pieces of data I'm pull

In FM7 I find that the Japanese filter is still the best one, at
least for export to Word.

Hello Framers,
I am moving soon and looking to upgrade my home office. I would like to find
a nice 2-line phone with a cordless headset. I would like to be able to
answer the phone remotely from the headset, if possible. Any advice or
recommendations would be appreciated. Thank you very much.

A bit pricey, but we have a many here because of their excellent quality

Framers,
I'm working on a book for a commercial publishing house that prints in

We always add note pages to the end of the pages to have them come out
in 16- or 32-page signatures.
This is going to be a "hands-on" process I think to make things fit
and add pages where necessary and tighten pages where necessary.
That is how we do it.

How do you "tighten" pages?
I don't think adding notes pages is an option for this book, but would be an
idea for other types of books.

Hi, Linda:
Shrinking to fit is usually more difficult than expanding to fit.
While it's easy to tweak away with paragraph-, character-, and
word-spacing properties to squeeze things in, it's also easy to create
magnificently-ugliness.
You can get some good advice from folks on typography forums a
Hi I'm new to this group, but not to FrameMaker :)
I am responsible for maintaining the templates at my current company
and I was wondering if anyone had suggestions on the best place to
store the template version. Ideas are: in a variable or perhaps on a
reference page.

I would not try to do the signatures in Framemaker.
You can use a plug-in for Adobe Acrobat, Quite Imposing Plus

printer. I used the plug-in a lot for documents we sent to a Xerox Docutech.

Ok: good to know. But the key difference in the filter pack in FrameMaker 7 for
Mac would seem to be the improvement in quality of the native Word import.

Or you can use one header text frame and put a two-column table in it for
more design flexibility:
- You can play with ruling and shading, for example to place your
headers/footers on a colored background.
- You can control the distance between both columns by playing with
the default
Hi,
I also use 2 column tables. However, do you know how to
automate this? Part of my header is the product name, and
its length varies in different books.
