TOC

New Here ,

Hello

I am trying to build a TOC and a PDF for one of our product guides.

The TOC fm file has 3 levels of headings printed. However the PDF file only prints one level. What could be the reason? Attached screenshot below. The one with 2 levels is the FM file and the one with the just 1 level is the PDF file..

Is the font used elsewhere in the document? If so, does it show up correctly?

I suspect a corrupt font.

What version of FM? What method are you using to create the PDF?

FM 2015.

I am using Save as PDF.

It worked like a charm before. I recently reinstalled the Framemaker as well as the Acrobat and I am thinking its some settings.. But I tweaked around a bit and still not able to figure out why...

Is the second level in the same font? Is the font used elsewhere in the document?

What happens if you change the second level style to bold just as a test?

Interesting.. If I make the second level bold, it shows up..

Why? Is there a setting I can change to include the 2nd and 3 level ignoring the font difference?

Appreciate your help!

Sorry for the late reply.

It is Helvetica 9 Regular font and I didnt have any other place with that font in the document. I deliberately changed it and I was able to see the same issue..Text with that font is invisible.. How can I fix it please?
