Cross Refs, Structured FM, and WWP

[Rick Quatro]

One other way to fix this is to use FrameScript or an API client to 
temporarily convert the cross-references into spot cross-references. This 
involves inserting a Cross-Ref marker at the source and setting its text to 
the unique id. Then the cross-reference properties are changed so that the 
cross-reference points to the marker. WWP will then treat this as an 
unstructured cross-reference.

I agree that this is not an ideal situation, but it may be more reasonable 
than changing your workflow.
