Hi, all. I should have specified that my Framemaker template will be used to produce both PDFs and compiled help files.
After a discussion on techwr-l or possibly this list, I decided to keep figure and table numbers in my online cross-references, but not page numbers. I currently append "online" to the names of x-refs intended for use online. I wouldn't want to get into separate templates for PDF and .chm output; too much hassle. I use conditional text in the Framemaker source files to use separate x-ref formats for PDF and .chm. Thanks for all the discussion and suggestions. I'm keeping the quotation-marks-versus-italics distinction for my PDFs (including the associated formatting hassles), but online it's a different story. In all cases, simpler is better! When I'm done, if anyone would like a copy of the template, I would be happy to send it on. --Nancy
