The usual way to do this is to paginate the file normally and print
the file to PDF. Then use pre-press tools such as Quite Imposing
(there are many others that do the same thing) to set up the
imposition pattern. Note that it is a pre-press tool.
Most FM users can get into trouble with this if th
Hello Verner,
I'm not sure there is a Plug-in for Framemaker that does it, but Quite Imposing

Not automatically generated words controlled directly by the table format, no.
However, you can set up a series of paragraph tags, one for each
column, and add text to each one's Autonumbering field. If the tag is
in the correct Heading Cell, the text will be too.

There is no way to do this automatically with FrameMaker. If you have

Hi,
A simple solution would be to create a regular PDF file
and then print a booklet to a PDF file via Acrobat.

Hi Leah,
Not "text" per se, but since the paragraph formats for each cell are stored
with the table format, you could use formats that have autonumbers to define
the text you want. Here are the general steps you can use:

We use AutoText (www.siliconprairiesoftware.com) to insert certain
