[Framers] Framemaker 2019, Conditional Text, and ToCs

[Lea Rush]

Hi all,

Thanks for the prompt. That did fix the problem. The irony is that the lack of an up-to-date installation set goes directly against part of my job. I maintain our software installation sets, making sure that the shippng set and the online set are up to date. My first instinct is that any competent company would do the same, especially one as large as Adobe. With all those people, there must be someone doing that!

Adjusting my naivety filters for reality...

It's a common trope that just because you downloaded & installed FM today, that it includes all the latest fixes - it doesn't - immediate updates are required right off the bat.

Lea,
    Jeff's advice to make sure you have installed all patches may indeed solve your problem. I am running a fully patched version of FM 2019. I have just duplicated the situation you described and had no problems with TOC entries that contained conditional text.
