On educational discounts documentation issues

2012-08-01 Thread Rob Shell
Hi Framers: Down here in South Africa I have been trying to get educational discounts for Frame products, like TC4, but so far no luck, but then the fat lady has not sung her FM11 aria yet. There is a long-term, industry-wide aversion to full print documentation. This is a great pity. I am sure

Template Override Madness

Hi, all. I have been struggling with the Remove Overrides issue with the cover page template for our user guides. It has a busy first page with a lot of text flows, graphics, variables, etc. I could not identify the variation between the body page and the master page, so I decided to create a

Further update: I downloaded, installed, and ran HuntOverrides and fixed all paragraph overrides. A very nice tool! (http://www.freeframers.org/freeware/cud/). However, it did not solve the problem. I suppose there must be other overrides, such as tweaked text frames, still in play. I don't

When FrameMaker complains about overrides in relation to master pages, it is not talking about character format or paragraph format overides. Instead, it is talking about page layout overrides, such as the number, dimensions, and/or position of text frames, room for sideheads, etc. -Fred

Deleting conditions across a book - Frame 10

2012-08-01 Thread Laura Fergusson
Hi all Does anyone know of a way to delete conditional tags across a book using Frame 10? I used the PGF Whopper plugin for Frame 8 but can't find anything for version 10. I know you can go into each file and delete each tag individually but it's very time consuming. Thanks in advance Laura

I think David is really right on the money with these comments on the templates. Let's hope the Adobe is listening on this one. They could get started now, releasing them periodically. Then by FM 12 they would have a real bang-up set of them to come out with the new release. In fact, they could

You're sure the overrides aren't on the master or reference pages? When I was cleaning up some legacy docs in FM10 recently, I found that any time a character tag was applied to a whole paragraph it would show up as an override. The only way I know to stop that is a kludge: add a space at the end
