hi all,
I have just upgraded to Framemaker version 8 (from 7.2) and I am am
having issues building one of my manuals. I have successfully updated
and built two Framemaker manuals. Unfortunately, I am having no end of
difficulty creating a third PFD using an identical method (Save As>PDF
and Acrobat Distiller 6). The problem seems to be centered around
either the TOC or cross-references.
Here's a recap of what I've done so far:
(1) after removing the TOC from the book altogether, I was able to
isolate 4 offending cross-references. once I removed the
cross-references and corresponding markers and then replaced them, I was
able to build a PDF of the book (without the TOC).
(2) I added the TOC back to the book, but receive the following errors
in my log:
%%[ Error: typecheck; OffendingCommand: get ]%%
Stack:
0
-null-
0
-null-
[0 0 1]
/Border
-mark-
/Action
[0 0 0]
/Border
[1050 3380 7650 3143]
/Rect
-mark-
(3) I deleted the TOC file and its backup and created a new TOC. I
received the same errors as above.
(4) I deleted the new TOC file and created a new one, with only one
paragraph tag. Same errors.
(5) I cycled through all of the paragraph tags that I traditionally
include in the TOC, deleting the old file and creating a new one each
time. Same errors.
Can anyone point in me in the right direction?
thanks in advance for your help,
