> Is it a known bug? No, it's a feature :-) Since FM only puts in a Marker to indicate where the hyperlink area *starts* (and not where it ends), FM needs a way to determine where it ends. Hyperlink areas are constrained by any change in the character formatting compared to where the Marker is. That is, as soon as you change character formatting (bold, italic, point size, etc.), that's where the hyperlink area ends. This is also transferred to PDF. You need to have the same character formatting on the entire line in the Generated File. However, in your case (an index), you also need to understand that the hypertext marker is placed at the beginning of the page number, so any text before that on the line will not be included in the hyperlink area. This is done so that entries with multiple page numbers can be handled correctly. -- /Thomas Michanek, FrameMaker/UNIX/MIF expert http://go.to/framers/
