This is an issue that relates to the issue of Dots Per Inch (DPI)....that has been set for the image

Your screen resolution in DPI is 96 DPI. Its still clear.
Print output is a little bit different. a good dpi is theoretecially around 150 dpi. Its possible that the images specified dpi is a bit too ...

this is my take, based on my oh so surface knowledge of DITA ..: :)

Topic based authoring...DITA
Multiple TOC....DITA Outlines
Multiple target ouputs ....DITA XSLT transforms

these are the things that appear to support DITA to me...but i think if i were more knowledgeable about DITA,

there might ...

Have you also tested if your search is working at all?
You may need to register itcc.dll

Browse to
C:\Program Files\MadCap Software\MadCap Flare V3\Flare.app\Resources\Bin

Then click RegisterItcc.bat

done.

compile the project and test it.

hahaha


i used to think the only best examples of best web support would be efforts by the super large software companies...the microsofts, IBMs and dells.. looks like small to medium sized companies that we have a really good fighting chance too! an encouragemet to the rest of us...

hey it works! alas we use See Also links.

i would imagine so... i am not an expert in this area though.

let us know how it works out.

Was called in to assist a manager who completely relied on the See Also links in the topic and the HTML Help index completely. never even looked at the toc to search.

I was wondering if there was a way to force the Search to point to a specific topic when users search for certain terms? Am I missing something elementary?

Yes, I know I could turn those terms into Glossary popups. However, I'm not a big fan of doing that for something that users will only need to ...

When you have multiple workspaces for one tfs project
- are you logging on to from different computers with the same user account?

nvm...problem resolved. thanks mates

does anyone have any problems creating a Lingo database?

i also have sql server standard installed for our internal apps for development and testing.

we work with tfs over here . although we don't bind our flare projects to tfs too early.

we tend to bind it after we've stabilized a large portion of a new project. Especially for imported projects.
Once its bound we haven't had any major issues, other than an additional lag, but which is to be ...

Hi!

You'll be interested to have a look at this. Its written from a well qualified veteran frame user.
So I hope it does help to some degree.

I've you're going to do translation for help systems, snippets, variables and all the associated media, i suggest giving Lingo a shot, since it simplifies and speeds up the process substantially. Especially if you're going to do more than 1 translation. Download the trial at least, and see how it ...

You could have folders like this

I want to generate a PDF out of FrameMaker, which is the way God intended PDFs to be generated from FrameMaker files.
How do I get MCF to preserve my custom table styles with each reimport operation?

You have done well to start ...

Did you change the Working folder paths recently in Source Safe and the project content ended up getting mapped. If not its just a matter of moving things out of the Snippets folder. I don't think i've heard of Flare moving images and topics into the snippets folder on purpose.

This non-underlined links is all over Vista, The Nooo York Times, even in Madcapsoftware's website.

Its quite the thing. And i agree though on some statements made earlier that, glossary links and standard links and popup links should at least be differentiated a bit.

Did you accidentally and copy and paste your project content in there during one of your project backup or project content moving sessions?

if its too complicated it might not be worth the effort.

You can only do this to paragraphs and headings with auto-numbers in the styles defined.

Repeat x to z.

Numbered steps are a type of special list. They are not paragraphs.
The numbers in list items will not show as you want them to.

Currently there is no option to display the numbers only in ...
