Keeping Xrefs when converting structured to unstructured
Hello All, I hope there is someone who can help me with this (in my opinion) strange action. For a customer we have created a publication in structured framemaker. This customer now wants this very same publication also in un-structured framemaker. Is there a way to convert my structured document to unstructured and keep all the Xrefs valid? There are hundreds of them in this book. It would take hours to resolve them manually! Besides this, and less urgent, I wonder if there is a possibility to translate some layout (for example the headers) to paragraph-tags.

Keeping Xrefs when converting structured to unstructured
Anneke, In structured FrameMaker, attributes on elements manage the connection between the cross-reference and its source. In unstructured Frame, part of this connection is done with a Cross-Ref marker. When you remove the structure, you will not have the necessary Cross-Ref markers, so you will have to fix each cross-reference by hand. An alternative is to use FrameScript to convert the cross-references before you remove the structure from the document. If you are interested in this approach, please contact me offlist. Thanks.
