Cross Refs, Structured FM, and WWP

[Michael Müller-Hillebrand]

Marsha,

There is nothing bad about old workhorses...

* What are the names of the ID attributes in your title or sections
elements and what is the name of the IDREF attribute in your
CrtossReference element?

* There is no easy migration from WWP8.x to Webworks ePublisher!

* You should upgrade your FrameMaker to 7.2p159 (in two steps, see the
Adobe website) -- but this is not connected to your problem.

* If you already use structured FrameMaker, why don't you save as XML
and do the transformation using XSL? Setting up this process might be as
expensive as buying and setting up Webworks ePublisher.

Best wishes,

- Michael
