Rouge Unresolved Cross-Reference to...

Hello ,

W7, FM11.

When I update a book, the Book Error Log gives me two errors for each document of an Unresolved Cross-Reference to document.

When I click the link, it takes me to the relevant document, but not the actual error.

This is true in Body Page, Master Page and Reference Page view.

Any suggestions?

When this happens to me, and it does, the usual obstruction is that the orphan Xref is on a Master Page that is hidden because the Pagination is set to Single Sided.

If your Format > Page Layout > Pagination is set to <*> Single Sided in the suspect document, change it to <*> Double Sided and search MPs again.

Other possible culprit discovered: missing font in Target Doc!

Have you tried using the Find > Unresolved Cross-References option in those documents?

In one of the documents, it finds two Unresolved Cross-References.

It shows the text in the Find box, and it is something I'd expect to find, but I still can't locate it.

The Find places the insertion point in the Cross-Reference. Simply double-click on it and it will bring up the Cross-Reference dialog and any specific error message to allow you to fix the cross-ref.
