Hi
Is there a plugin for FrameMaker 12 which will help collect all images in a book?
Best regards
Bjørn
Hi,
Yes, the Package command does not work very well if you have files in multiple folders. The Package command only pulls files from your current directory.
I have Finalyzer by Squibbs. Here is the website:
The Basic Package is a package of utilities for FrameMaker. One of them is a Transfer utility, you can transfer a single file or a complete book into a single folder. It grabs everything no matter where it is on your computer/network. I have been using this for years, mostly to package

You can also use File > Package to collect graphics into one location.

Yeah I wish I could, but for some reason that facility just doesn't work. I have tried several times, but I just can't make it work. I believe it may have something to do with the company storing the book files i a separate directory, but I'm not really sure.

Are you able to open all files without alerts? (and without masking alerts via preferences?!)
Missing resources could be the issue

I don't get any alerts and everything else works fine. Only Package does not work.

Hi Tom
Thanks for the tip about Squibbs. I remembered their product but could not remember the name and producer, so had no luck in finding them. I shall try that.
Best regards
