Hi Tim,

there is a very nice feature in SQUIDDS TOOLBOX for FrameMaker 7, 8 and
9: Server 'Analysis'
Feature 'Server Analysis' makes a list over all referenced files of a
directory of a server.
Then you know what and how many files are repeatedly referenced.

See more information in the manual (documentation) or download TOOLBOX:

Your Question:
Subject: folder structure

I inherited a book with chapters and files in a complex directory
structure. We are changing from one version-control software to another,
so now would be a good time to change the folder structure.

The complex structure makes it difficult to check out all the files in a
book at once. It seems to me that it would be easier to have files that
are common across products in a common files folder, and to have all the
rest of the .FM files for each product/FM book in a single folder, with
images in an adjacent folder.

I am wondering if there are recommendations for file structure, and what
are the gotchas I'm likely to encounter if I move things around.

Thanks. tims
