I'm using Flare 4.0 to re-import a Frame project (for the first time since installing 4.0) and am getting the following errors: In hypertext marker (type 'XRef'): File '../../../../../DAB/foldername/User Guide/Member Information/MemberInformation.fm' is missing from disk or is not referenced in the ...

Gordo, Thanks very much; your suggestion worked perfectly. The only small change I needed to make was to add a space between the single character and the icon I configured in the stylesheet before I could delete the single character.

I've got a big project I've imported from Frame (8) into Flare (3.1) in separate projects. Then I merged them all under the main beginning project file and all went fine. The problem is that the cross references (that were made in Frame) work fine within each individual project but they do not work ...

Our .css entry includes something like this: {b}{paratext}{/b}. After import, I go to the first cross refe...

Actually, I think I found the answer to this question in the forum on .css. If you import and preserve the styles of your original source document (Frame in my case) then specify an existing style sheet, Flare tries to create new styles from the import, creating the extra styles with added numbers. ...

I'm working on a big Frame/Flare project to create online help and whenever I re-import a Frame file it creates a new *.css file and a new TOC file name (i.e. sample.css gets a new sample1.css and the TOC has Sample and Sample1 listed underneath it). I don't want the extra *.css or TOC files. Does a...

That absolutely fixed my problem. Thank you so much!

I'm importing FrameMaker files into Flare and for some reason Flare keeps opening the old version of FrameMaker (7.2) instead of FrameMaker 8.0. I recently installed Frame 8.0 and want to keep both versions of the app on my machine. Is there a way to tell Flare to open Frame 8.0 upon importing a Fra...
