Paragraph statements
In version 5, paragraphs can span all text columns and side heads or span columns only. As a result of this change,
the
PgfPlacementStyle
statement now supports the additional keyword
StraddleNormalOnly
, which indicates
that the paragraph spans text columns but not side heads.
For supporting the capability to create PDF bookmarks from paragraph tags, the new
PgfAcrobatLevel
statement
has been added. This statement specifies the paragraph’s level in an outline of bookmarks.
For more information about the MIF syntax for paragraphs, see
“Pgf statement” on page 62
.
Character statements
In version 5, the
FDX
,
FDY
, and
FDW
statements, which specify the horizontal kern value, the vertical kern value, and
the spread of characters, now measure in terms of the percentage of an em.
In previous versions, the
FDX
and
FDY
statements specified values in points. When reading MIF files from previous
versions, FrameMaker in version 5 will convert points into the percentage of an em. Previous versions of
FrameMaker generate error messages when reading
FDX
and
FDY
statements specifying percentages, since these
products expect the kerning value in points.
Table statements
In version 5, tables can be aligned along the inside or outside edge (in relation to the binding of a book) of a text
column or text frame. As a result of this change, the
TblAlignment
statement now supports the additional keywords
Inside
and
Outside
.
In addition, the existing
TblTitleContent
statement is now contained in the new
TblTitle
statement.
For more information about the MIF syntax for tables, see
“Tbl statement” on page 74
.
Document statements
In version 5, the
DAcrobatBookmarksIncludeTagNames
statement has been added under the
Document
statement
to support the conversion of paragraph tags to bookmarks in Adobe Acrobat. By default, this statement is set to
No
.
Another new statement
,
DGenerateAcrobatInfo
, sets print options to the required states for generating Acrobat
information. By default, this statement is set to
Yes
.
For View Only documents, the default value of the
DViewOnlySelect
statement has changed from
Yes
to
UserOnly
.
For text insets, the following statement has been renamed:
Document and text flow statements
In version 5, the MIF statements describing interline spacing and padding, which appeared under the
Document
statement in previous versions, have been replaced by corresponding statements under the
TextFlow
statement:
In version 5, if FrameMaker finds the
DMaxInterLine
and
DMaxInterPgf
statements in a 4.00 document,
FrameMaker applies these settings to all flows in the document.
