Book file > PDF problem

[Art Campbell]

It's possible that it was introduced later than 6 -- there aren't a
lot of people using that version because it's an antique.

If I recall correctly, there is a field in which you specify the name
of the PDF file though. I also recall that if you put an asterisk in
that field, it's the signal to Acrobat to generate individual files.

If that doesn't work, some Googling may turn up the correct syntax,
and it's probably in the manual / online help.

P.S. FM 8 is available as a free eval.
