Frame 8, Acrobat Pro X

From the top, there is:
-Author (Heading3)
-Author weblink (Link)
-Title (Heading2)
-Story (Body)

One reply, off-list, suggested a cross-referencing plug-in. That *might*
work for linking back automatically, but it doesn't address building the

What does the format definition for your "Figure No." cross-reference format
look like?
I'm guessing that it looks like "Figure ", which specifies the literal
string you are seeing.
What it needs to look like is "Figure <$paranum>" or "Figure <$paranumonly>".
The "" building block is only used
I got nowhere when I was trying to understand how to create an FM10
project using XML source. Everything I found either seemed to be out
of date or was aimed at experienced users.

I seem to have a lot of trouble getting this to work and considering
FrameMaker's reputation for stability once it's set up it doesn't seem to be
very reliable.

I'll try this method soon.

Have you tried either turning off the toolbar with the drop-down or
rearranging that toolbar (in Maker.ini) to no longer show that list box?
I do the former within minutes of launching any new setup.

Hi,
At least the paragraphs which are used for bookmarks could
be set for each file individually already in FrameMaker 8. I had
used this to add the GroupTitlesIX paragraph format solely in
the index file to get the single characters as bookmarks (and
similarly for the glossary headings). There wa

The warning is just pointing out that there's a difference between the book
settings & the document - it can be ignored. If you set numbering by the book,
update it & save the book, it should be sticking. If it's not, then there's
something else going on.
