FM 10 - crashes and PDF bookmark settings

[LGLists]

Thanks to all for this bookmark information. It's different from the way FM
8 worked, I'm sure of that. 

I'll try this method soon.

Hi,

At least the paragraphs which are used for bookmarks could be set for each
file individually already in FrameMaker 8. I had used this to add the
GroupTitlesIX paragraph format solely in the index file to get the single
characters as bookmarks (and similarly for the glossary headings). There was
no need to add this paragraph format to the first file in the book. This
behaviour did not change with FrameMaker 10 (which I use for a week now).

I figure that the same holds true for the Tags tab. I do not know which
setting in which file (or the whole book) takes precedence in the Settings
and the Links tab.

The way the bookmarks settings works is:

o You can set the paragraphs for bookmarks in each single file.
  But you can also select all files in the book and set this for all
  files.
  (I do not remember which paragraphs are shown, if you select just
  the book. There are not all available formats shown of all files in the
  book and also not the formats of the first file in the book. I just tested
  this with a file with only 3 paragraph formats as first file.)

o Bookmarks are then created as set in each file.

This behaviour was already explained in detail some months ago either here
or in the Adobe FrameMaker forum.

Best regards

Winfried
