MIF Reference

Usage
Each Row statement contains a Cell statement for each column in the table, even if a straddle hides a cell. Extra Cell
statements are ignored; too few
Cell statements result in empty cells in the rightmost columns of the row.
When you rotate a cell to a vertical orientation, the width of unwrapped text affects the height of the row. You can
use
RowMaxHeight and RowMinHeight to protect a row’s height from extremes caused by rotating cells containing
multiline paragraphs, or to enforce a uniform height for the rows.
FrameMaker writes out the
RowHeight statement for use by other programs. It is not used by the MIF interpreter.
Even if the statement is present, the MIF interpreter recalculates the height of each row based on the row contents
and the
RowMinHeight and RowMaxHeight statements.
Cell statement
A Cell statement specifies a cell’s contents. It also includes format, straddle, and rotation information as needed. The
statement must appear in a
Row statement.
