<DIV>Hi John</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Ugh. I assume you need consecutive page numbering, bookwide TOC, links, bookmarks etc?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I don't know a good solution, but one ugly workaround is to combine the files at the PDF stage instead of the FM stage.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>To do this, you'd futz the page numbering in Word so each file started on the desired page, create 8-page FM "placeholder" chapters in the FM book, make your PDFs from FM and Word, use Acrobat to replace the "placeholder" pages with the correct pages, and manually fix links and bookmarks.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Cheers</DIV>
<DIV>Rebecca<BR><BR>>>> <john.x.posada@us.hsbc.com> 8/03/13 08:08 >>><BR>Hi, guys...long time.<BR><BR><BR>Anyway...I have a book that when printed, comes out at over 900 pages and<BR>is composed of about 300 files.<BR><BR><BR>I have 25 8-page documents that I created in Word that I need to include in<BR>the book. I can supply them in either Word or PDF. However, the issue is<BR>that each Word document is a single table with tables inside of the tables<BR>and they don't come into the FM well because FM doesn't break rows between<BR>pages..and since each 8 page document is one table (PLEASE don't ask...its<BR>a battle I've been fighting since October), the eight pages just run down<BR>off the bottom of the first imported page.<BR><BR><BR>Any ideas? I also have the issue of working in a locked down environment,<BR>so installing other software is not an option. BTW...I'm on FM11.<BR><BR><BR>John Posada<BR><BR>-----------------------------------------<BR>******************************************************************<BR>This E-mail is confidential.
