OK. But then is that just a simple gathering of the relevant FM book, chapter and image files or can one open the book and its member chapter in that zip file and generate a pdf file with all external and internal x-refs intact (just like you could with Bruce Foster's archive plug-in for FM 8)?</div><div><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1434983680798_51610">That last part is REALLY important to us here.</div><div><br></div><div dir="ltr">After seeing all the online snafus experienced by others who downloaded trial versions of Adobe software only to see it wipe out the previous version, I'm afraid to go that route.</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">-- Ken in Atlanta<br></div><div><span></span></div> <br><div class="qtdSeparateBR"><br><br></div><div style="display: block;" class="yahoo_quoted"> <div style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 24px;"> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"> <div dir="ltr"> <font face="Arial" size="2"> On Monday, June 22, 2015 11:37 AM, Craig Ede <craigede@hotmail.com> wrote:<br> </font> </div> <blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; margin-top: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> <br><br> <div class="y_msg_container"><div id="yiv0549819193"><style>#yiv0549819193 #yiv0549819193 --

We at my company use FM 11 along with the third-party book archiving script for FM9 and later made available after Mr. Foster's passing, and have consistent problems with how this script creates two copies of each FM chapter file (one in the main folder and another in the book Insets folder) with almost all external (chapter-to-chapter) x-refs broken so that pdf files generated from books archived using this script also have broken external x-refs.<br clear="none"><br clear="none"></div><div id="yiv0549819193ecxyui_3_16_0_1_1434983680798_7427">3.
