"Next Pgf Tag" problem solved

2010-08-17 Thread Meyer, Bernard
Sorry, folks for my prior email; I just found an archived Framer's msg that let 
me know that patch 277 fixed this problem. I installed it, and sure enough, 
fixed. I am so glad this list is here!

"Next Pgf Tag" instruction not working

2010-08-17 Thread Meyer, Bernard
Hello, Framers. Hoping you can help me diagnose an anomaly:
(I am using FM 8.0p273 on Windows XP Pro, vers. 2002, Service Pack 3.)
==
Our FM templates define paragraph tags named "FigureNumber" and "FigureTitle".
In the "FigureNumber" definition, the "Next Pgf Tag" box is checked and the 
specified following tag is "FigureTitle"
So, if I create a "FigureNumber" paragraph and hit , the next paragraph 
SHOULD automatically be a "FigureTitle".
However, what actually happens is that this just creates a second 
"FigureNumber" paragraph. Of course I can manually change it to what I 
intended, but I should not have to do this.
I had my colleagues try the same thing, both with existing files on their 
systems and with fresh copies of the template file. One person did not have 
this effect, the other two who responded had the same effect as I did.
I am completely nonplussed on this one.

Framemaker 7 - need bookmarks and cropmarks in PDF

2010-08-17 Thread Fred Ridder

Newbie Christine asked:


> First-timer here to this site...why cannot I not generate a pdf with both 
> bookmarks and cropmarks?

That's by design. It's "horses for courses".
Crop marks are only useful/relevant when you're preparing camera-ready copy and 
the final deliverable with be hard copy. Bookmarks are only useable when you're 
preparing an electronic deliverable (the PDF itself) that will be used 
interactively. If you're preparing camera-ready copy, hyperlinks and 
interactive features are useless and just get in the way in the printing 
process. When you're delivering an interactive document, it's really annoying 
for users to see a large page area with a small text area and crop marks, since 
that forces them to zoom in to make the text easier to read and then live have 
to scroll over large amounts of whitespace in the top and bottom page margins. 
If you select "Generate Acrobat Data" (i.e. enable interactive features), 
FrameMaker automatically disables crop marks, and vice versa. If you're 
generating PDFs for two disparate purposes, you should be generating two 
separate, optimized PDFs.

Off topic - Parallels price loading

Hello,

I'm not about to defend Parallels, as I have my own troubles with 
them, but I downloaded a version a few weeks ago and did not pay the 
download service fee. I just looked at the web site and found I could 
buy another copy, not that I would, without the service. Just click

Dang, excuse me while I wipe the egg off my face.

The little cross on the right was not that obvious, especially since I  
normally see remove links on the left, and written in text.

PS So to redress the issue, Parallels are a wonderful company and  
their products are simply the bestest :P

For some software that I have bought in the past, an "extended download

Not strictly true however. I have done several projects over the past  
few years where the page size was smaller than A4 and the client  
wanted to print out hard copies for copy checkers to write on but  
needed to be aware of the page margins. They also wanted to check  
hyperlinks, bookmarks, etc.


I use 7.1 for these.

What I do is set the crop marks when I print to PS, and bookmarks are  
there too. Run the PS through Distiller and generate the PDF. When you  
open the PDF you will not see the crop marks but they are there  
between the art box and crop box. So to display the crop marks I open  
the PDF in Acrobat and change the settings in Advanced > Print  
Production > Crop Pages. This is Acrobat 9.3.3.

Off topic - Parallels price loading

2010-08-17 Thread Alan T Litchfield

Yes, this is off topic.

I am posting here because I know there are number of other users who  
have installed and use Parallels. Has anyone ever encountered this  
before? All I can say it must a heck of a lot to send those  
electronics all the way across the Pacific.






I can see no practical reason for charging a premium for downloading  
from outside the US. Hidden charges are very annoying and a con.

RE: Framemaker 7 - need bookmarks and cropmarks in PDF

2010-08-17 Thread Fred Ridder

Newbie Christine asked:
 

> First-timer here to this site...why cannot I not generate a pdf with both 
> bookmarks and cropmarks?

That's by design. It's "horses for courses".
Crop marks are only useful/relevant when you're preparing camera-ready copy and 
the final deliverable with be hard copy. Bookmarks are only useable when you're 
preparing an electronic deliverable (the PDF itself) that will be used 
interactively. If you're preparing camera-ready copy, hyperlinks and 
interactive features are useless and just get in the way in the printing 
process. When you're delivering an interactive document, it's really annoying 
for users to see a large page area with a small text area and crop marks, since 
that forces them to zoom in to make the text easier to read and then live have 
to scroll over large amounts of whitespace in the top and bottom page margins. 
If you select "Generate Acrobat Data" (i.e. enable interactive features), 
FrameMaker automatically disables crop marks, and vice versa. If you're 
generating PDFs for two disparate purposes, you should be generating two 
separate, optimized PDFs.

Fwd: Framemaker 7 - need bookmarks and cropmarks in PDF

2010-08-17 Thread Alan T Litchfield

This is forwarded to include the mailing list.

Begin forwarded message:


Thanks Alan!

Sorry, yes, more info. Windows. FM 7.2.

All the bookmarks are set up along with the levels, etc. I can  
generate the bookmarks by themselves in a PDF. But as soon as I try  
to generate a pdf with both the bookmarks and the Tombo cropmarks, I  
only see the Tombo cropmarks in the pdf.


I've played with the paper sizes and I originally had 8.5 x 11 paper  
size (page size in the FM document was 7.5 x 8 or something like  
that).


I continued to google this issue and came across a comment that  
someone said to keep making the paper size larger, such as tabloid  
paper size, and then generate the pdf and run through distiller.  
(When I do that I see my bookmarks but not the cropmarks.)


Then open up the pdf in Acrobat and then crop the pages to the  
desired page size. And sure enough, as soon as I did that, I saw the  
cropmarks.


This seems like a very odd process to get the desired results. The  
client whose files these are only has FM version 7.1. We have 7.2.  
Client is on vacation so they can't answer our questions on how they  
generate their pdfs. I'm wondering if we are missing an update? Or  
we have installed an update that the client doesn't have?


Thanks!
Christine

Christine,

Cannot answer your question without further information.

Platform, what you did, etc.

Assume you have read the help on how to generate pdf files and  
bookmarks for example, this text is copied from the help:


To set bookmarks:

   1. In the PDF Setup dialog box, choose Bookmarks from the pop-up  
menu, or click the Bookmarks tab (Windows/UNIX).

   2. Select Generate PDF Bookmarks.
   3. To specify at which level bookmarks appear expanded in the  
exported PDF, select an option from the Bookmarks Expanded through  
Level pop-up menu. You can type a value, such as 2, to specify that  
you only want the top two levels expanded.
   4. To indicate which paragraphs should be converted to PDF  
bookmarks, move paragraph tags between scroll lists. The paragraphs  
in the Include Paragraphs scroll list will have bookmarks in the PDF  
file. To move a tag between scroll lists, select the tag and click  
an arrow or double-click the tag. To move all the tags from one  
scroll list to the other, Shift-click an arrow. To omit bookmarks,  
deselect Generate PDF Bookmarks.
   5. To change bookmark levels for the included paragraphs, select  
a paragraph tag and click a Bookmark Level arrow. To change the  
level of all items, Shift-click a Bookmark Level arrow. If the  
indent for a tag exceeds six levels, n> precedes the paragraph tag,  
where n is the indentation level of the paragraph tag.
   6. To include paragraph tags along with the paragraph text in the  
bookmarks, select Include Paragraph Tags in Bookmark Text. Use this  
option to check the assigned levels of bookmarks in a draft of the  
PDF file. (Deselect this option when you print the final draft of the

document.)
   7. Set up article threading by doing one of the following:
  * To have the reading order of each article follow the  
same order that the insertion point moves, select Articles and  
choose Thread by Column from the pop-up menu. This setting is  
usually the most appropriate in multicolumn formats.
  * To have the reading order of each article go from text  
frame to text frame, select Articles and choose Thread by Text Frame  
from the pop-up menu. This setting is usually the most appropriate  
in single-column formats.

  * To create no article threads, deselect Articles.

RE: Footnote color

2010-08-17 Thread Roger Shuttleworth
Hello Lief

The issue is, though, that you can't access the footnote number alone, since 
it's not defined in the footnote paragraph format. Any changes to the paragraph 
format are applied to the whole footnote, not just the number. As far as I can 
see, there is no way to format the number differently from the text. This 
appears to be so whether you are using structured or unstructured documents. 
I'd be happy to be proved wrong...

Footnote color

2010-08-17 Thread Lief Erickson
Ah, that wasn't clear to me that he wanted just the number in the footnote. I 
thought he wanted the entire footnote and the number in the text.

Hmmm. Yeah, I don't know how you'd color just the number in the footnote 
itself, unless you want a hack way to do it.

I could imagine that you could make the default Footnote paragraph tag the 
color that you want, then use a Character tag (called Black that is set to 
As-Is except for the color) to change the paragraph color back to black. Be 
sure there is a space at the end of your footnote that you do not select and 
include when applying your Character tag though.

Like I said, it's a bit of a hack, but does get you a colored number and black 
text in your footnotes.

To apply color to the Footnote number, I think you'll need to create a 
Character tag that is the color that you want and apply that Character tag to 
the number.

Hi -

Is there a way to automatically apply a color to a footnote number,  
both in text and in the footnote?

Thanks.
