Subject:Tool to report FrameMaker paragraph styles From:guy -at- hiskeyboard -dot- com To:techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com Date:Fri, 6 Jan 2006 15:50:13 -0800 (PST)
There used to be a company called Caxton, Inc that offered tools for
FrameMaker. One capability provided was to generate a listing of all the
paragraph styles, showing all their attributes. I'm extending a set of
templates, and that sort of listing would be very helpful.
I see that BrightPath acquired the assets of Caxton a couple years ago,
but nothing on BrighPath's site shows me where/whether I can get the tool
I seek.
Anybody got some source for that tool, or some other bright idea of where
I can get a similar tool. I COULD extract the info by scripting through
MIFs, but if the wheel has already been invented....
