Hi Framers, My screen definition is at 1280X1024. When I open a book, the font used to display the contents of the book is small for me. I have looked a bit at customizing FM. Didn't find anything to solve this problem. Any ideas. Thanks. Stephen O'Brien Rédacteur technique / Technical

I am also a font simpleton (I hesitate to use the word ignoramus because I certainly haven't ignored font issues. But wayback in the 90s I realized that scaling fonts was a nastier job than scaling fish and the font wars between Apple and the Softies and Adobe stunk.) I'm a pacifist and a low

I have found that when using a numbering stream it is best to put ALL placeholders in. Therefore your formats should read: H1 A:$chapnum.n+ =0 =0 H2 A:$chapnum.n.n+ =0 H3 A:$chapnum.n.n.n+ Additionally, ensure that you haven't used this number stream with the desginator (in my example A:) in

Hi, Charlie: You may have noticed that FM has no Print Preview option. This is because FM's on-screen view is (nearly) WYIWIG, and has been going back many versions. FM does this by looking at the font names listed in the currently-selected printer's support file(s). You may have noticed that FM

Gyanesh, That is how text insets work, generally. I know of three workarounds: - Do what you did, that is, convert the text insets to text, create the PDF, then close the files without saving. Personally, I find that too dangerous to do. - Insert a hypertext marker over the cross references

Hi Robert, There is an autonumbered paragraph between the two that is resetting one of the numbers. The easiest way to try to fix this is to add a series label to the H1, H2, and H3 autonumbers. A series label is a single letter followed by a colon; for example, - H1 - H:<$chapnum>.
