Thank you Yves,

that looks fine. I'm trying it right now!

Have a nice day,

Mathieu.

P.S.: you're of a much better disposition than some who can't bear questions 
about already resolved issues...;o)

Hi Mathieu

No need to apologize, you're not disturbing anyone here on this list. ;-)

You can do one of the following to insert landscape pages:
Choose Format > Customize Layout > Rotate Page Clockwise (or Counterclockwise)
Split up your file and put the files in a FrameMaker book. Create separate 
files for the landscape pages and insert these at the relevant positions in 
your FrameMaker book. This is a bit more work in the beginning, but it's also a 
safer option for future updates.
Cheers

Hi all,

and sorry for the disturbance. I know this one has been dealt with a number of

We work with Frame 6.0 on Unix and would like to insert a number of landscape

The first option can be made much more robust and flexible with a bit more work 
in the beginning, too. 

Instead of just rotating body pages ad hoc as needed, create rotated custom 
master pages (LandscapeLeft and LandscapeRight might be good names). In FM 7.x 
or higher, you could assign these master pages based on specific paragraph 
tags, but IIRC, FM6 didn't have that feature. There are, however, scripts 
and/or plugins that will do it. If this is a one-time thing, it probably isn't 
worth it, but if there is a recurring need, automating this would be a good 
idea.

With some of us, it just depends on our level of caffeination. Too early is not 
good, but too late is risky, too. ;-)

But without intending any criticism of your question, I can help with the 
archive search problem. Don't use the FrameUsers site, use Google. You can 
restrict a Google search to the FrameUsers list by entering a search string 
like this: 

landscape pages site:lists.frameusers.com 

Try that one, and I think you'll find several of the 76 hits quite relevant.

HTH!

Vendor post but not very vendor-y

As you know, MadCap Software is offering a series of free, typically  
tool-neutral, webinars. There’s still time to sign up for the next  
one, offered Jan 29 at 9am Pacific time. Mike Hamilton is talking  
about Advanced Publishing in Flare or Blaze.

If that time and date don’t work for you, sign up anyway and you will  
be sent a link to the recorded webinar the next day. We’re recording  
the free webinars and making them available from our website.

Keep an eye on http://www.madcapsoftware.com/demos/webinars.aspx for  
all our upcoming free webinars. These free webinars are very  
successful, so we plan on offering them for a while. If you want to  
update your knowledge of the Tech Comm field, these webinars may help.

If you’re interested in presenting a topic to the field, contact me  
and let’s discuss your idea. If you have a topic you’d like to see,  
also contact me and let’s talk about it.

Currently, I’m looking for someone to cover creating API docs and  
someone to cover creating visuals from technical content for webinars  
in the May/June time period. You don’t need be in the US but you do  
need a computer with a microphone for the VoIP to present. Microphone  
headsets can be purchased for less than $40US.

Thanks!
