FM Book - New file = New page?

2011-05-28 Thread mathieu jacquet

Dear all,

I am using FM 9 on Windows 7 64 bits.

Just one short question : is it possible to have the content of one file of a 
book appear directly under the content of the preceding file (when publishing 
as pdf), and not on a new page? If so, what kind of setting does it require ?

Thank you very much in anticipation,

Mathieu.

No. In keeping with FM's book paradigm, an FM file is intended to be a 
chapter/section. For each file, you decide whether it starts on a right, left, 
or next available page. 

I suspect it would be quite difficult to program the application to flow text 
across chapter files without treating each as a discreet entity. And I don't 
see the point. If you want a section of text to follow the preceding section 
without a page break, just add it to that chapter file. 

Or, if that section of text is something you want to include in multiple 
places, put it in a file by itself and then import it (by reference) as a text 
inset into the chapter files where you want it to appear.
