[Framers] Does new FrameMaker actually split footnotes across pages? and SetPrint Qs

[Reng Winfried]

Hi Wendy,

Yes. Thank you for your comments!
When you can create a virtual box on your PC, you can install a test version of FrameMaker 2020 there.

SetPrint is a little freeware utiliy. Just download the dll and copy it into the specified folder.
Create a small text file SetPrint.ini (as described on the SetPrint website) and put it into  the same folder as the dll.
Then close and restart FrameMaker.
That's it.

I appreciate the feedback for my questions, especially the positive notes from Reng Winfried and Lin Sims about Frame 2020. (It helps to hear that somebody actually does have some good experience with the software.) I would like to try the free trial of the new version but don't know if our IT department has a nonproduction computer that I could put it on that wouldn't screw anything up with our current Frame.

Thanks to those who have replied. I did have a good laugh at Peter Gold's note:  "When I've had to wrestle with this issue, if there was time, and willingness to cooperate, I'd try to work with the author to re-write or re-order the material." We're dealing with lawyers here-we can barely get them to submit materials in the first place, let alone revise (most of them are volunteer authors, so there is no incentive other than getting their name in the book and having contributed to the book as an expert on the topic).

I actually had thought of SetPrint-does anyone know how to get a copy of it? We have just two people now, so that's all we would need. We're on Windows 10, Frame 7.0, using Acrobat X Pro. Does it have to be installed by an Admin or is it simply something we could put in the Frame software folder ourselves?
