Re: Change Tracking in FM 7.1 for doc review?

2010-06-04 Thread Writer
Can you get an FM upgrade? You can track changes with newer versions of 
FM (starting with version 8, I think).

Unless all of your reviewers has Frame, it doesn't make sense.
Alternate suggestions:

1) PDF comments

2) Code Collaborator or a similar application that enables everyone to
mark up the document (i.e., PDF) in a central location. IOW, everyone
can see everyone else's comments. Code Collaborator is intended for
code reviews but it worked well for us reviewing documentation.

If you are delivering documents as PDF, using Adobe Acrobat, then you have a 
tool.
 
Just enable commenting in your review PDFs. Your reviewers, using Acrobat 
Reader, can insert comments, redline, mar out, etc. You can then combine all of 
the comments received into one file, with the comments annotated as to who each 
came from.
 
Look around Adobe's site. There are numerous articles, and  tutorials, on how 
to implement an Acrobat Review strategy.

But note that you must have Adobe Acrobat Pro (or Pro Extended) to enable 
commenting from Adobe Reader. The Standard edition of Acrobat lacks this 
feature (among others).

InTech  used to sell one for Frame 7.
I don't know if they still sell it, but you could ask.

If I recall, it cost about two hundred dollars--about the same as the
upgrade to Frame 8 at the time, which had track changes as one of the new
features.

2010-06-05 Thread Art Campbell
Could you clarify your question? I'm reading it two ways:
Either you need to flag changes in FM since the previous rev so they stand
out to reviewers. OR... you want to let people record comments in the text,
for which others are recommending (correctly) to use Acrobat to track
comments.

Then, if you aren't using Frame 8, or greater, about the only way you can get 
what you want is by using conditional text, which is what Frame 8 really uses.
 
Just set up a condition code for new/replaced and old/changed, or whatever 
names you want to call them. Then distribute with the condition(s) tuened on.
