RE: long target names in xref dialog

With my installation of Frame 8.0p277, I tried using the modified module fmdlg.dll from http://www.daube.ch/docu/fmaker36.html#4 without success: FM 8 crashes --consistently-- when I select an image (imported by cross-reference into a graphics frame), and select Graphics Object Properties.

EXTENSIS USERS?

Hello Framers, does anyone have any experience working with Extensis Suitcase for Windows and integrating it with FrameMaker? I'm on XP SP3, FM 7.1. Extensis Suitcase 11. It works fine with InDesign and Illustrator but FM seems beyond its reach yet and so is Photoshop. Any suggestions?

RE: EXTENSIS USERS?

well, Extensis provides plugins for Illustrator, InDesign and Quark. I wonder if anyone thought of making one for Frame... Probably I should file a request with the developers for such a thing. Might be useful to many people. Michael Date: Thu, 13 Nov 2008 10:04:08 -0500 From: [EMAIL

Mif2Go: controlling graphics position

Section TOCs

Hi list, as I find it hard to search the archive, can anyone give an idea of how to make section TOCs? I use Frame 7.2. I have a book that consists of several parts, each part has a number of chapters in it. I would like to have an overall TOC at the beginning, with lets say two levels, and

Re: Section TOCs

Create small additional books containing the component files for each section. Set up your section TOC and generate it. In your parent book, add the section TOC in the appropriate spot. When you update, remember that you have to update the section booklets first so the TOC will be accurate. You

Re: Section TOCs

As the question relates to a document with continuous numbering I think that the overall book should be updated first in order to get the page numbers correct. Then the section TOCs can be updated. If a section is done first how can it take into account page count changes in front of it?

Re: Section TOCs

Good question. The numbering properties in the Section books need to be set to use the existing value in the component files, a value that is set by the parent book. But the parent book doesn't require an update action because the page / figure / table numbers are dynamic in the component files.

Re: Section TOCs

Hi Flo Rick Quatro's ChapterTOC Framescript is an ideal solution for this: http://www.frameexpert.com/scripts/chaptertoc.htm Surely, you can create standalone TOCs (aka miniTOCs or local TOCs) too, but I find the ChapterTOC Framescript the only way to do this productively. Kind regards --

EXTENSIS USERS?

If you're using it to avoid font substitutions, it's unlikely to work with FM because FM does its own font substitutions (which you can control by editing the maker.ini file) and I think Suitcase tries to work at the OS level --- so it's unlikely to know what's happening inside each application.
