The other graphics are probably imported as files, by reference, and

The \f (end-of-flow) special character search does not work correctly inside a
table in FrameMaker (at least, not on Windows) for at least versions 5 through
8. However, you can use the hex equivalent - enter \x0b as the search text
(wildcards not needed) to find the end-of-flow in the cells.

Jennifer,
I am surprised that Jeremy hasn't jumped on this one already.
Mif2Go (www.omsys.com) will give you very good chm. They have a fully

I might even have a configuration file that could be modified to spit out a
chm straight from Frame.
