I am working on a FrameMaker 7 (Win 8) document with callouts in anchored
frames set up so that they can be dragged into precise position alongside text
in the main flow.
Seems kind of old school, but it works beautifully for this document -- except
that Acrobat arbitrarily shifts all the call
So right. So darn right! The solution is, in fact, the problem.

Believe me I have said that as an instructor AND a user! As someone who
lost, multiple times (and, of course, right at the due date) 300 page
documents, I swore that if I ever had to do that kind of work in Word
again, I would charge at least 5 times the normal price!

I took a Single Sourcing class a few years ago (before I moved from Word to
Frame). When I told the instructor I was writing 400+ page manuals in Word, she
replied:
"Word is... (long pause), Word is... (another long pause). Word is for memos."

You are probably right. And when people say "everybody knows Word," I tend to
give this reply:
The "good" thing about Word is that you can just open it up and start typing.
The bad thing about Word is that -- you can just open it up and start typing.

It's been my own experience that "requests" (actually "directives") for using
only Word came from the Marketing Dept and/or others who didn't believe that
Tech Pubs could do the job and demanded the ability to go in and "correct
things" as they saw fit. And because "everybody knows Word", well,

This is 'sort of' possible in Word.
Word cascades style definitions. So you should define all your heading styles
based on a style called, say, 'Heading Base'. Then you only alter the design
as required for each style. If all your headings use the same font family, then
it is possible to chang
