Frame 8 bug: Importing RTF "misplaces" footnotes and index tags

[Tina Ricks]

Hi all,

 

I found one more Frame 8 problem today, and was wondering if anyone has seen
it or has a workaround. I'm importing RTF text, originally written in Word.
There are a lot of footnotes and index references.

 

In the RTF version, I might see this:

 

And the author says, "Blah blah blah blah."3 (where the 3 is a superscript
footnote reference).

 

After I import it to Frame, I get:

 

And the author says, "Blah blah blah b3lah." (where the 3 is a superscript
footnote reference, randomly inserted in the middle of a word, usually
within 5 places or so of where it had been before).

 

This happens with index tags too, which after RTF import are now randomly in
the middle of words instead of neatly at the beginning or end. I can see
them in RTF in the right place, but they don't come across to Frame that
way.

 

Has anyone seen this or know of a workaround?

 

Tina
