I'd like to be able to import a chapter's or book's File Info information into other book or chapter files. I'm imagining that this could be implemented by adding a new button on the Import Formats dialog box.

How I would use this: IF I have a FrameMaker chapter file from book "A," AND I want to copy that file into another directory for use in book "B," THEN I currently must manually edit the File Info from chapter file "A" to make it consistent with book B's File Info. I'd like instead to be able to quickly import the book B's File Info into the new chapter file re-used from book "A".

While today it is possible to select multiple book files and use the File Info dialog box to specify the pertinent information for all of those files in parallel, it is evidently not possible to import existing File Info from one book or document into another.

Cheers & thanks,
Riley
