MIF Reference

Paragraph statements
In version 5, paragraphs can span all text columns and side heads or span columns only. As a result of this change,
the
PgfPlacementStyle statement now supports the additional keyword StraddleNormalOnly, which indicates
that the paragraph spans text columns but not side heads.
For supporting the capability to create PDF bookmarks from paragraph tags, the new
PgfAcrobatLevel statement
has been added. This statement specifies the paragraph’s level in an outline of bookmarks.
For more information about the MIF syntax for paragraphs, see “Pgf statement” on page 62.
Character statements
In version 5, the FDX, FDY, and FDW statements, which specify the horizontal kern value, the vertical kern value, and
the spread of characters, now measure in terms of the percentage of an em.
In previous versions, the
FDX and FDY statements specified values in points. When reading MIF files from previous
versions, FrameMaker in version 5 will convert points into the percentage of an em. Previous versions of
FrameMaker generate error messages when reading
FDX and FDY statements specifying percentages, since these
products expect the kerning value in points.
Table statements
In version 5, tables can be aligned along the inside or outside edge (in relation to the binding of a book) of a text
column or text frame. As a result of this change, the
TblAlignment statement now supports the additional keywords
Inside and Outside.
In addition, the existing
TblTitleContent statement is now contained in the new TblTitle statement.
For more information about the MIF syntax for tables, see “Tbl statement” on page 74.
Document statements
In version 5, the DAcrobatBookmarksIncludeTagNames statement has been added under the Document statement
to support the conversion of paragraph tags to bookmarks in Adobe Acrobat. By default, this statement is set to
No.
Another new statement
, DGenerateAcrobatInfo, sets print options to the required states for generating Acrobat
information. By default, this statement is set to
Yes.
For View Only documents, the default value of the
DViewOnlySelect statement has changed from Yes to UserOnly.
For text insets, the following statement has been renamed:
Document and text flow statements
In version 5, the MIF statements describing interline spacing and padding, which appeared under the Document
statement in previous versions, have been replaced by corresponding statements under the
TextFlow statement:
In version 5, if FrameMaker finds the
DMaxInterLine and DMaxInterPgf statements in a 4.00 document,
FrameMaker applies these settings to all flows in the document.
