Need ideas - Moving large files from one folder to another withoutbreaking links

[Abungu, Salome (TTI Mpls)]

Thank you for passing this information along to me. I can't wait to learn more about it. However, I don't know what the difference is amongst the family of Finalyser products. Is there a sheet of some sort that compares these products? I looked around for one but couldn't find the information. The difference in pricing is quite stark and I don't want to purchase a Swiss army knife to cut and apple when a paring knife is enough.

Thank you!

Also, thank you to all the people who responded to this post. I tried to respond to those that e-mailed me but I'm sure I missed some people. Your feedback has been great. I truly appreciate it and welcome your ideas.

Hi Salome,

do you know the "Finalyser" Family for FrameMaker since FM5 (formerly TOOLBOX for FM 5 - 9)?
Today there is a collection of very brilliant Plug-ins and ExtendScripts for FM 10 or Fm11.

Announcement: Oct, 4th - Finalyser is now available for FM10 and Fm11 (valid with same license).
Benefit: Save money and save your time!

For your requirement you can take "Book transfer" to copy many books in a book or thousands pages in a book,
with all referenced files to another location without breaking links.

More information see the online help* of Finalyser "Book transfer":

Does anyone know of  a program that will allow me to move several files to another folder without breaking links to graphics in other folders? We've imported graphics by using the "import by reference" option instead of copying the graphics to the document. We've done this because copying the graphics into the document bloats it. Our manuals have been created by several writers over the years. I have hundreds of files to move but haven't done it yet because of this issue. I could open each book file and FrameMaker files and just archive them but again, there are hundreds of these things to move.

Any ideas are certainly appreciated.

Have a great weekend!
