Do FrameMaker files automatically get updated when you print as PDF?

Hi Fei Min,

 

With a single document, cross-references are automatically updated when you
open the document and print it. So you should be OK.

Subject: Do FrameMaker files automatically get updated when you print as

Trying to get an autobuild system to work with FrameMaker 10 on Windows 7,
with Acrobat X. Producing PDF and Eclipse User Assistance output through
Mif2Go.

 

The build scripts appear to work for all the book files, but we are getting
failures on a couple of files that are single .fm files, not part of books.
So we're thinking of making the processing conditional so that we don't run
an "update book" on single files. However, some of those single files might
contain internal cross-references. So my question is this: when we print to
PDF (using Mif2Go), will those cross-references get updated automatically?
Basically, do we have to worry about updating references before generating
the output files when it's not a book file?
