Page Break in book

Hi!

I have a problem and hope You will help me. If i make some book file (lets call it book.book) and add there different parts of chapter, framemaker begins every file with a new page.

For example each sections of chapter 1, 1.1, 1.1.2 and 1.1.3 has independent file (1.fm, 1_1.fm, 1_1_2.fm, 1_1_3.fm). When i add them to the book.book file and save as PDF, there is a page break between every section.

Is there a way to remove page breaks and force framemaker to combine all this parts in one whole pice of text, that doesn't begin new page after end of each file.

I already tryed to enable/disable severanl options in Paragraph designer (Pagination), but without success.

I guess it's possible to import files in one and then add it to book, but it's weird, because i should add the whole book in one file...

Thank you in advance!

Short answer: No. You either have to bring the 1_1, 1_2, etc into 1 as text insets, or you need to combine them into one file. FM will always put a page break before a new file in a book.

Thank you for explanation. But can you give me more details about combining into one file?

In book it's easy to change order of chapters, add or exclude one of them and it's much more difficult, when all this parts are imported in one file.

Maybe there is a way to add all fm files in book combine it in one fm file without page breaks between chapter section (before publishing it into pdf)?
