OFF TOPIC (but I hope it's ok to ask, since it is an Adobe productplease
don't flame me!)
Does anyone know anything about using Adobe iFilter to index the content of
PDFs? Do you use it? Is it good? Is it reliable?
Thanks

Hi Everyone,
We have a text insert in our Preface that starts with a H1. Every time
we update the insert in the Preface file, it causes an extra blank H1 to
appear in the file *after* the insert.
Is this just because our insert starts w/a H1?
Any ideas what we can do to avoid this? We have to

I was building a heap of files into a large book today, and saw some of the
files go out of order in the book. Mostly I'd have just assumed I'd carelessly
dragged them, but your email prompted me to look a bit more closely.

Hi, Rene,
I would suggest the same-name issue could be overcome by establishing a
naming convention that indicates the version or date of the graphic in
the file name in cases where it's important that the file name be
unique.
Regarding the second point: Yes, you would create additional copies at

I can verify this behavior. on FM7, fully patched, Win2K. My books
are generally 15+ files. It has been a very costly bug for me. Now
that I "expect" it to happen, I check the order of the files in FM
before generating my final PDF to ensure that neither I nor my client
has any nasty surprises.
Is there a way to set the default paste option in FrameMaker to Text (so
that I don't have to use Paste Special > Text) ?
