it seemed that FM hung, but it might have been that I just didn't set

Table Tools 1.0 from Silicon Prairie Software has been released.
Table Tools is a shareware plug-in for FrameMaker that helps you manange
table tags in your FrameMaker documents.
Table Tools also provides the following routines:
- Remove Overrides
- Find Next Override
- List Table Usage
- Delete
I'd like to echo what Richard said about not conditioning individual
words, from painful experience. We started off with quite a lot of
part-sentences conditioned and have been gradually removing them,
because they're so much harder to edit.
Another possible approach, especially if you have this
I tried to send a FrameMaker document attached to an
e-mail and the intended recipient replied:
The file is looking for a title.bmp and can't find it.
What does this mean, and what can I do to be able to

It probably means that you imported (a) graphic file(s) called
title.bmp but haven't
sent the graphic file with the fm file or set the fm preferences to
save copied in
graphics as frameimages. So, because you're not sending the graphic
file, the error message pops on the far end.
If that sound as
FrameMaker documents are often unidentified by virus programs and therefore
stripped from e-mails. Add the FM documents into a zip file and attach the
zip to your e-mail. That should work.

I can't get Mif2Go to create graphics even though I selected "Write for
Anchored Frames." So all the graphics are missing in the CHM file. (This
is for MS HTML Help.) My mif2htm.ini file is below. If anyone has any
ideas I would appreciate it.

I don't know that this is the problem, but your
GraphicExportFormat=JPEG
line doesn't match the syntax that the manual specifies.
I think the entry needs to be JPG.

That's likely the easiest way.
If not, the other suggestions are good. Of course, you can tell them to ignore
it on the receiving end. Then they can do edits as they see fit, save and
return the file. When you put

Why do you want TOC styles? This isn't clear. The TOC styles are
automatically created by FM in the TOC file itself; you use them to
format paragraphs in the TOC. You *don't* use them to include paragraph
tags from other files.
