It looks like the new version of ID in CS3 has got some better
long-doc handling tools. Or so Adobe says. I would still rather
switch from FM to ID than run Windows FM under simulation - Parallels
or whatever. One foresees just too many unforeseeable problems.
So: does anyone know what the current state of development of the
MIF->ID filter that DTP Tools (?) is working on is?
Reading the ID forum at Adobe suggests that the new version still
doesn't have x-refs. Anyone know if that's right?
There's also a claim to do footnotes. Anyone know if ID does
footnotes *correctly*: do they break across pages like real footnotes
are supposed to, or does the entire note jump to the next page if it
doesn't all fit on the current page, a la FM?
Thanks,
Graeme Forbes
