[Framers] X-ref issue: FM links that work in the FM file but don't work in the PDF file that is generated from it

What version of FrameMaker are you using? If you have the PDF Setup dialog
box, make sure you check the "Create Named Destinations for All Elements and
Paragraphs" checked in the Links tab of the dialog box.

Greetings,
A cross-reference problem has cropped up in FM-to-PDF generation.
Links that work in an FM file (i.e., when you double click on a link,
clicking the resulting "Go to Source" button jumps you to the correct
source) do NOT always work when the file is converted to PDF.
This means that to check the validity of x-refs, you cannot rely on the FM
file but have to search the PDF file.
(Needless to say, this is extremely tedious...) I suspect that the
phenomenon is caused by a combination of conditional text and X-ref markers
that have somehow been perverted but what I don't understand is why FM
doesn't (or can't) identify the perverted links as "bad links".
If you have any ideas, TIA,
Barry Meislin
