Troubleshooting broken cross-references in FrameMaker documents converted to PDF
Subject:Troubleshooting broken cross-references in FrameMaker documents converted to PDF From:"C" <cll01821 -at- lycos -dot- com> To:<techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Wed, 06 Sep 2006 15:33:05 -0400 (EDT)
I'm using FrameMaker 7.0 and Acrobat 6.0 Professional. When several
cross-references that worked in FrameMaker did not work in the PDF, I
attempted to fix the problem by re-importing the relevant cross-reference
and paragraph tags, all to no avail. I searched the Adobe Support site, with
no luck.
I also searched the techwr-l archive because I had a vague remembrance that
someone on this list recently mentioned that corruption with
cross-references could be fixed by removing the cross-references and all
associated markers and then re-inserting the cross-references.
I never found the original posting, but I went ahead and removed and
replaced the cross-references, one at a time, verifying the successful
conversion after inserting each new cross-reference. Success!
Many thanks to whomever posted the information. Also, if you read this
posting, would you kindly send me, off-list, your original e-mail to the
list about this problem and solution?
