How to automatically import index and cross-reference entries from Word 7 to FM 7.2 or 8?

[Nandini G]

I am importing word (.doc) files created by RoboHelp 7 into FrameMaker 
7.2nbsp; on Windows XP 2002.
nbsp;
How can I automate the task of converting index and cross-reference entries 
from Word to FrameMaker 7.2 formats? I also have a FrameMaker 8 installed on 
another computer if that would allow advanced importing of index and 
cross-reference markers.

Why hurt Muslims' feelings with creative expressions such as Islamofascists?

Don't get me wrong, I am not a Muslim. Yet when a hijab-clad mother of six was 
killed in broad daylight in front of her three-year-old in Fremont, California 
on Thursday, I could not but feel the pain of the anguished family. Her only 
fault was that she wore the scarf encouraged by her faith, just as jews would 
wear a scull-cap, Christians would wear a cross, Sikhs would wear a turban, and 
Hindus would wear a red Bindi. 

Labels hurt. If as enlighted writers we are free to use terms such as 
Islamofacists, how do we stop people from coining derogatory phrases using our 
religions, ethnicity, and color? This is a land of the free and the brave. 
However, some self-regulation is in order. 

Where is the moderator?

Hi,

Are there any advantages/disadvantages to using the SAVE AS PDF function
over printing to a postscript file and then distilling?

Thanks, Paul

There are numerous articles and threads on this subject in the archives,
if they are working this morning.

But, in a nutshell, Save As PDF is problematic in all versions of
FrameMaker. You may, or may not, experience problems. Using Print to
File and then Distilling eliminates all of these problems.

You don't even need to Print to file if you use an Adobe printer
driver when printing to PDF. In versions 7.x, the printer driver is
Adobe PDF. (I forget just now which one it is in version 6.x--Acrobat
Distiller, maybe?) 

When you do it this way (making sure to *clear* the Print to file
check box), you don't have to later look up the file and distill it. The
print process prompts you for a PDF file name, and then proceeds to
print and distill to PDF wherever you tell it to put the output. 

I've never had a problem doing it this way in Frame 6 or 7--though I

Spam from India?

[Nandini G]

I belong to the TWI (Technical Writers of India)
group. Recently the moderator deplored that some spam
came from the members, only to get reports from the
members that their names and email addresses were used
unkown to them for spamming. 

I can't say whether this is a case of assumed name/id.
It would be a good idea to scramble our email
addresses or cut off the last portion so that we do
not become victims of spam.

Also, a random message to the group from the moderator
announcing not to advertise services to the group
would help. Alas, not everyone knows netiquette.

If the messages continue, we have the phone number :)
Who do you call? Spambusters!

Nandini
