Laura, It's very likely that in the Book, the files are defined to start on right pages in a double-sided page setup. If this is the case, Frame will always add a blank left page, if necessary, in order to maintain consecutive running pages as it generates and updates the Book. In such settings,

The only problem comes if they edit enough to change the page numbers (which will screw up cross references). If it's only very minor changes (say form fields or UI element names?) then they might get away with just editing and saving the RTF. No 'republishing' required. Alternatively you are

Just make it a PDF and then, in the PDF, click File Send for Review. Acrobat will make the PDF editable. Caveat: You must possess Acrobat Professional 7.0 or greater. The editor just needs the free Adobe Reader. Thank you, Gillian Flato -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Omsys.com's rtf export filter would do the best job if they want to use Word because it mimics the tags pretty well. As soon as your client actually starts editing, though, they're going to notice lots of discrepancies in appearance. Might not matter to them though, if they aren't going to

If I'm understanding you correctly, the limiting factor is what page the level 2 heads are on. IF they're on the same page as the header, you can specify the last Head2 on the page instead of the first (what you're calling the previous) Head2. However, as far as I know, you can't make this work
