… clicking in a text frame.

I tried to reproduce this behaviour without success. I made a new book in which I placed one document and exported via ‘Export Book to PDF …’ on the book palette submenu using the same preset I use for proofing single files. The PDF file produced was the same size as the PDF produced by exporting the separate ID file. Same result exporting one of three documents in a book via ‘Export Selected Documents to PDF …”

Could you describe in more detail the file and the book in which it is placed? Have you compared the two versions using Preflight in Acrobat?

Erica,

You wrote: ‘ I import the idml files as new sections and using different master pages for each language. The styles are shared across the languages and all works beautifully EXCEPT for hyphenation.’

Language and, thus, hyphenation is a function controlled by para. and/or char. styles so, if you are using one set of styles across all languages, hyphenation will be controlled by the language and hyphenation settings in the styles applied. My first impluse is to suggest that you set up a template for each language with that language and its appropriate settings for hyphenation set in the styles. The documents with the text for each language can be tied together with a book file. The alternative is to create a set of styles for each language in one master document, not a procedure I recommend.

You will also need to choose the appropriate options for each language in Preferences > Dictionary. If the hyphenation and spelling dictionaries supplied by Adobe are not adequate, better dictionaries from third parties can be installed.

You might find the plug-in, Search in Styles, from Id-Extras.com useful.

Some folks post screenshots at imgur.com and include a link in the post.

My guess is that, since, if a paragraph style is not listed among those used in the document in which the TOC is being generated, ID will not recognise that para. style when generating the TOC, when you pasted the the TOC ‘List of Figures’, its styles would have been added to your list of para. styles.

Colleen, in Anchored Object Options set position to ‘Inline or Above Line’ and adjust the Y offset to a negative number until the top of the photo sits where you want it. Set the wrap to the bottom and right edges only. The negative offset will be the sum of the height of the photo’s frame plus the bottom wrap plus some amount to allow for the leading you have set on the type.

I haven’t used the Oxygen XML Editor for a long time but it supports JATS and ‘includes built-in transformation scenarios that allow you to transform JATS documents to a variety of outputs, such as PDF, HTML, and EPUB.’
