Subject:RE: handy little buttons in Frame 6 (was longer) From:jwaddell <jwaddell -at- micron -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Fri, 2 Mar 2001 14:54:50 -0700
Jo,
Some versions of Frame 6 had a known bug that ignored hypertext links that
were placed on master pages. There is a patch available from Adobe that
fixes this problem. Look around on the Adobe site for a Frame 6 patch. I
don't remember version numbers and such, but experienced the same problems,
a perfectly good Frame 5 file that wouldn't behave in Frame 6.
good luck,
John

Not so fast, Emily. We're experiencing a problem, which I'll write up and
submit
to the list when I summon the energy, with 5.5.6 files converted to
FrameMaker 6
and subsequently distilled to PDF files. All of our links work fine EXCEPT
the
handy little buttons in the left margin that take you to the TOC or index.
Those
buttons don't work in the PDF files. They work just dandy in the Frame
files.
Sooooo... it might be a good idea to keep copies of those 5.5.6 files if you
intend to create PDFs, just in case you encounter this problem.
Best of luck,
Jo (hoping to live happily ever after)
