Hi Jakob--
When you add the URL in FrameMaker are you then adding a Go to URL Hypertext
marker through Special Hypertext Go to URL? If you do that, then apply a
character tag to the text, the link should work, even if it breaks across lines
because it is the character tag that becomes the

Your problem sounds a lot like when I deleted the wrong maker.ini file from
my system.
There is a main maker.ini that contains the licensing # and if FM can't
read it, my FM crashed IIRC.

license #, it didn't
Hi Lief, all,
thanks for your reply. We know we can do this, but that's manual,
isn't it, and we're looking for ways to automate this as much as
possible.

I am having some major FrameMaker problems. I've been running FrameMaker 9

However, I finally cured it by completely deleting the following

As I mentioned before, every time I started up FrameMaker it would crash. I

Good point, Mike. I inherited a template and only had time to make minor
tweaks. On the next go-round, I probably won't put the chapter title in a

using paragraph and character styles.

Hi Rick,
It's definitely possible. You can't invoke the Table Convert to Paragraphs
command directly, but you basically traverse the table and copy each
paragraph out of the table into the main flow. When you are done, you delete
the table. If you want, send me a sample document offlist and I
Couple of guesses based on experience:
1) Make sure Adobe PDF is your Windows default printer
2) Try printing to a .ps file and running that through Distiller
3) Reboot, open only Frame, and try the same thing.
4) Try printing page ranges to see if it might be some object (such as
a graphic)
