I don't need any flexibility. These are the only two tags that will ever need icons. Then, yes, my approach would be overkill for your case, I suppose. :) FWIW, I have these paragraph formats available in all my documents. Including both the auto-number method (and which also involves using

Somebody wants Note and Caution icons to the left of paragraphs. For single-source motives I don't want multiple paragraph tags or a table. I want to define the Caution and Note paragraph tags so the icon appears at the left in PDF output. If it doesn't appear in FrameMaker that's fine. Is there

Hmmm ... I could do it with Autonumber Format if I could find a dingbat font with the right icons. On Mon, Jun 3, 2013 at 11:35 AM, Robert Lauriston rob...@lauriston.com wrote: Somebody wants Note and Caution icons to the left of paragraphs. For single-source motives I don't want multiple

OK, Autonumber Format works. Deja Vu Sans has the dingbat, if I set the character tag to 24 pt and Subscript, it looks about right. I used the Frame Above Pgf and Frame Below Pgf to add horizontal rules. On Mon, Jun 3, 2013 at 11:50 AM, Robert Lauriston rob...@lauriston.com wrote: Hmmm ... I

I use side-head paragraphs for this purpose all the time. Then I can enter whatever I want in the side-head - whether it is a large icon like you asked about, or other text (in red for example). With autonumber, you end up having to use the same autonumber text. The process is to set the page

(I am not sure I _entirely_ understand what you mean.) If you mean one paragraph format and one character format (if you want to use an icon), then, yes, that is true. But my approach gives you more flexibility in one way. Using an autonumber requires a _separate_ paragraph format for each

That would be two tags. I want just one tag since that's more straightforward for single-sourcing to various outputs. On Tue, Jun 4, 2013 at 7:57 AM, Syed Zaeem Hosain (Syed.Hosain at aeris.net) wrote: > I use side-head paragraphs for this purpose all the time. Then I can enter > whatever I

I already have a Caution paragraph tag. My goal was to add an icon to it for PDF output by modifying the tag's format. Modifying each occurrence of the tag would be a lot more work. I don't need any flexibility. These are the only two tags that will ever need icons. On Tue, Jun 4, 2013 at 5:40
