No - for that, you need Interleaf... (ROFL)
Seriously, John, what you are doing with para formats is correct for
FrameMaker. If, say,

Ok, for those of you following along :-) I've now got my whole book
imported, got the TOC generating, got each of the 50 chapters in a
separate file, got Volumes
set up to generate part numbering, etc.
Now I'm starting to see global formatting things I want to do, but I'm a
bit confused.
I keep a small set of master chapter templates (front matter, regular
chapters) in a subdirectory of the FM templates.
When I change formatting, I try to do it in the appropriate file and
then either Import Formats or use the Clean Import plug-in to ripple
the changes through the book's files.
Now I'm starting to see global formatting things I want to do, but I'm a
bit confused. For example, I'd ideally like to have the exact same
Paragraph Formats across every document in the book. The only way I've
figured out how to do this so far is to create the formats as I want
them in
Precise language is needed here.
Also, I'd like to change a Header format in one
place and have it update all across the whole
book, but that doesn't seem to work either :-(
Now...that should work. but only within the file. When you make the
change, are you clicking Update All To do it
