Global Footer Change

2007-06-07 Thread Howard Rauch
My client is asking me to update a catalog because his company has a new owner. 
The catalog is about 100 pages and, at my client's request each group of pages 
has been set up as a separate file so there are about 40-50 files in the book. 
The owner's name is on the master pages in each file. Is there a way to update 
the owner's name globally without opening each file and revising the master 
page? (I tried the instructions in the FM manual without success.)

I am using Frame 7.0 with Windows XP operating system.

Howard,

If the master pages are the same in all the chapters, make the changes
in one, then use the Import Formats function to copy the page layouts
from the corrected chapter into all of the others. You can do this from
the book level. De-select all the other option and check Page Layouts
before importing.

RE: Global Footer Change

2007-06-07 Thread Fred Ridder

This would be simple if the company name had been included
in the master page as a reference to a variable. When I
designed the templates for my former employer, I had used
that approach and it meant that we were able to do the
first-order rebranding of our documents with a minimal
amount of work when our company was acquired. The
second-order rebranding was more painful, however, because
the new owner's corporate style required the template to
include the corporate logo on each page, so we were stuck
importing the new page layouts into every component of
every book. Not fun.

But am I reading you correctly that you are manually modifying
the master pages in each file? No need to be *that* manual
about the change. Do it once (ideally using a variable for the
company name so that the next name change will be less
painful) and then use FileImportFormats to import the
Page Layouts to all the other component files.

Hi Howard,

From the FM book, you can select all the files and import the formats 
from a file that has the corrected footers. When importing the formats, 
deselect everything except for Page  Layouts.

2007-06-07 Thread Ridder, Fred
If the company name really is in the footers, it is on the 
master pages, and master pages (and reference pages)
are not searched when you do a book-level Find in
FrameMaker. To replace a name in the footers, you'd 
have to open each component file individually and change 
the view to Master Pages before using Find.

Maybe this is a case where saving everything as MIF
and using a text editor makes the most sense? 

My opinions only; I don't speak for Intel.
