Ah - solved my own problem with help of 'Publishing Fundamentals: Unstructured Framemaker'. Set the numbering to continue from previous page in book. I don't know why this wasn't set in my original template. From: framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com

Ignore previous email. I have documents that start with a tag called 'ChapTitle' and some that start with Heading1. The reference pages are set up so that pages with 'ChapTitle' on them will use the 'First' master page. This has a header with the chapter number in it. Pages starting with

Hi Ken, I have used FM11 unstructured on Win7 with files on the network since FM11 was released. I have no problems. Maybe your files are too big with the embedded ages? On Thursday, August 8, 2013, Ken Poshedly wrote: Due to the addition of 2 new contract writers and the replacement of the

It's been a big project, but we were successful! Here's the skinny: I need to import unstructured FM content into a new SalesForce Knowledge knowledge base. Individual procedures written in FM11 get published out via Mif2Go as Standard HTML (not help), and then imported by SalesForce with the help

7.2 to 11 Upgrade and reference pages

I recently upgraded from Frame 7.2 to 11 and have found that some of my reference page elements didn't make the transition very well. I have 2-column, 1-row tables with Note, Important, or Warning in the first cell. These labels are non-anchored frames in the reference page and appeared just

Hi Ken, One option that you have is to put your files in a SVN repository. If you do this, then checked out files will be local to the person's computer and there's no issue with network latency etc. You can certainly do the check out to an external hard drive to if that's needed. Once the user

You are one tremendously lucky person to avoid a crash for that long. FM crashes on me a couple of times a week on average. How much RAM do you have on your system? On the SUN workstations we never saw a crash. But that was FMv5.5. Craig Win7, 8GB From:

What you describe is true because the continue from previous file in book numbering option is not a property of a chapter file. Because that option only has relevance when the file is part of a book, the behavior can only be set as part of the book file's properties. This logic allows the same

First, if you updated the file by opening the 7 as an 11 and saving, I'd save the file as a .mif and open that to ensure that you're working in a file without extra characters and any possible 7 hangover effects. Once you know you have clean files, the first things I'd check would be your table
