I'll second that. Mif2Go produces decent Word output right "out of the box," and you can customize it to a fare-thee-well. BTW, hi everybody. I'm working again, and back on the list. Richard From: framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of R

RE: Did I miss the FM12.0.4 Update Announcement?

If what the FM10 help says is correct, this is because FM10 apparently didn’t import the graphics in native SVG format (emphasis added): When importing a Scalable Vector Graphic (SVG), the SVG Import dialog box allows the user to select the rasterization quality of the image. By increasing the

Yes. Select Format > Page Layout > Apply Master Pages. This creates a new reference page named MasterPageMaps. Go to it, and you'll see a master page mapping table with no entries. In the Paragraph Tag Name column, enter ChapterTitle. In the appropriate master page column (right or left), enter

Don't resize your screen captures! Save as PNG exactly as captured. When you import them into FM, specify the appropriate DPI setting to make them the size you want on the page. From: framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Tim Pann Sent:

OK, this thread has veered in multiple directions, and the key point that Fred and I tried to make may have gotten lost, partly because as Fred pointed out, we tend to misuse the term "resolution." So let's banish that term. Don't think about resolution and don't do anything resolution-related t

We’re talking about screen captures. Typical monitors display 96 pixels per inch, so you’re not “creating” something at 300 dpi. And you never want or need to downsample a screen capture. I’ll repeat myself just one more time. Ignore “resolution.” Just look at the pixel dimensions of your scree

“Divide and conquer” is always a good troubleshooting strategy in such cases. Cut the MIF file in half and save each half as FM. Theoretically, one of the FM files will crash and the other won’t, narrowing down the location of the problem. Repeat the process as necessary to isolate the problem t
