MIF Reference

Usage
Unless the generic object data indicates otherwise, the MIF interpreter assumes that each graphic frame inherits the
properties of the current state.
A
Frame
statement that is contained within an
AFrames
statement defines an anchored frame. Any other
Frame
statement defines an unanchored frame. The assumed value for
FrameType
is
NotAnchored
.
For anchored frames, an
AFrame
statement that refers to the frame ID indicates where the anchored frame appears
within the text flow (see
“ParaLine statement” on page 125
).
Specifications for the position and alignment of anchored frames are described in the following sections.
