Hi,
I've worked in FrameMaker for years and never seen a book with so many issues. I've inherited a 700+ page user guide with over 300 graphics. It's also heavily conditionalized. When I Save as PDF, the problems start.

Sometimes I'll see most of the book, but certain elements will be missing such as Emphasized text, Note titles (though the text is there), step numbering, page number, and so on. Sometimes, content will stop after a few chapters with just the chapter headings displaying. I've started eliminated some of the older conditional text. I've also eliminated figure callouts where I can, and grouped the graphic elements where I can't. These things seemed to make the book run faster during the PDF process, but didn't help. I've tried quite a few things (turning off conditional text, turning it on again, updating the book at different times, updating the templates, and so on), but nothing seems to be working.

Anyone have any ideas on what else I can try? The Frame files seem fine. It's only during the PDF process. None of the other books in the set have these issues, though none are as large or contain the number of graphics.

Andrea
