Anchored Frames Adrift

I am using TCS4 (FM11, RH10).

In FM, I add images (import by reference), set the anchored frame to "Run into paragraph" and have it right-justified.  Looks good, and publishes to PDF fine.

RH imports it and ignores the anchored frame spacing.  If the text is not deep enough to span the depth of the image, RH overlaps the image, preferring to manage spacing through the text.  Pictures on top of pictures.

How can I tell RH to honor the anchors put into FM? Hopefully its a setting in RH, since there are a lot of pics and it would be a pain to have to modify all of them individually.

Help.

If memory serves, I applied an Object Style to my run-ins, allowing me to redefine the Object Style with a FrameMaker import template and change them automatically from Run In, to Below Current Line (or whatever else you want)

Worked like a charm across 1000+ frames.

Sounds doable.

However, in my test file, changing the template also resized the graphic frame.  How can I change the template without changing the frame size?  Setting the size to 0 made the pictures go away, which is bad.

sounds like you need to reset the Object Style to As Is for the width and height.
