If you don't have the book file open, FrameMaker creates PDF links to the
PDF files named after the file (that is, it creates links to file_name.pdf
rather than to book_name.pdf). This makes sense. After all, FrameMaker has
no way of knowing which book the file belongs to if the book is not
to not wrap
to the next line when it should. Instead the text on that line
crunches together tighter and tighter. Eventually the text will wrap
to the next line, but it's all crunched together.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

I've had this problem after upgrading to Acrobat 8.0 -- distiller always

I searched a bit more in the Adobe forum. It looks like this is a known

If you have FrameScript, the ReplaceColors script will also let you

otherwise be deleted (w'out saving as MIF).
