Learn how to optimize files created in previous versions in the latest version of FrameMaker.
You can create named destinations only for paragraphs referenced in hypertext links or cross-references, thereby reducing file size. However, documents created in versions of FrameMaker earlier than 6.0 undergo a special conversion to take advantage of this method of marking.
The Optimization Options changes the default optimization options, which remain in effect until you change them, even if you exit and restart FrameMaker. The Select File to Optimize for PDF Size dialog uses the settings specified in the Optimization Options dialog box to prepare your documents for reducing PDF file size.
