Hi all



Finally upgrading from FM6 to FM9 at work.



In FM6 we used to compare an old version of a book to an updated
version, and we would generate a new book with green text (inserts) and
red text (deletes). We would then create a pdf of the new book and send
the pdf to reviewers.



In FM9 I have done a compare book but it doesn't generate a new book; it
only generates the chapters that include red & green text and puts them
into the folder where the updated book and its chapters are stored.



Can I get FM9 to make me a new book which includes the red & green text
chapters so that I have a complete book to convert to pdf and send out
for review?



Or do I have to construct the book manually?



It is possible we were using a framescript to construct the book in FM6.
If FM9 does not make the book I want, can I get a framescript to do it?



Any advice will be appreciated.





Thanks
