Thanks! Worked like a charm.

Hi Drew... yes, it's quite easy. Work out the visual dimension of 
the object you want to bleed, *add* the bleed to it, and draw that 
on the master. Position it flush to the edge of the page, and then 
nudge the graphic off the page by an amount equal to the size of the bleed.


If you cut PDF onto a larger 'paper' size than your FrameMaker page, 
and turn on trims, you should be able to see the bleeds to check 
their size and positioning.

I got that part fine, but the tabs stop at the edge of the page. is 
there a way to make the tabs larger than the page size for bleed 
purposes? I am sure it is something rather simple, but for the life 
of me, I can't figure it out.

Look at C:\Program

example. Just set up the graphics and header text container on the
master pages...

If that directory isn't on your system, go to the Adobe FrameMaker
downloads page and look for the template package. May be down with the
old releases, like 5.5 or so. They're all worth downloading, but the
sample is in Template pack #1, I think.

It doesn't give you an error message, it gives you a prompt asking if
you want to convert the file you're opening to your newer version's
file format. If you do, and if you save the file, then it works in
your newer version the next time you open it. The conversion only
needs to be done once.

Hi Drew... yes, it's quite easy. Work out the visual dimension of the object 
you want to bleed, *add* the bleed to it, and draw that on the master. Position 
it flush to the edge of the page, and then nudge the graphic off the page by an 
amount equal to the size of the bleed.

If you cut PDF onto a larger 'paper' size than your FrameMaker page, and turn 
on trims, you should be able to see the bleeds to check their size and 
positioning.
