cross book cross-references
Regarding cross-references that span across books. BACKGROUND I reviewed framer archives and I'm able to create functioning cross-references in the resulting PDF files. For example, a cross-reference in myBook1.pdf can find its target inside of myBook2.pdf. PROBLEM But... this only works when generating the PDFs from FrameMaker. Are there any WebWorks Automap users who use this feature? When I generate the PDFs with Automap, the cross-references attempt to find their targets in the individual chapter files instead of in the generated book file. For example, a cross reference in myBook1.pdf attempts to find its target inside myChapter2.pdf, which does not exist (because it is generated inside myBook2.pdf).

Use runfm instead of Automap; it uses Frame to generate the PDFs from the command line, and they are exactly the same as the ones produced using the Frame GUI. It's free, part of the Mif2Go demo version: http://www.omsys.com/dcl/download.htm Documentation is in User's Guide Chapter 34, Converting via runfm. The HTML Help version of the User's Guide is included in the main download. About a dozen other versions, including PDF and OmniHelp, are available farther down on the same page. HTH! -- Jeremy H.
