4.9 Generating/updating before converting

If you need to regenerate a table of contents, index, or other generated file because an imported template would change page references for these files, or if you do not update cross-references and other links for an entire book before converting, you can have Mif2Go generate/update your book before proceeding with conversion (and after applying a conversion template, if you specified one). Specify the following setting:

[FDK]

; GenerateBook = No (default) or Yes (generate after import)

GenerateBook=Yes

Generate/update during conversion is an expensive choice in terms of time and memory, because all book files must be open at the same time. Best to generate/update in FrameMaker before you start the conversion, if at all possible.

Note:

See §4.6.4 Avoiding template-related disasters for important information about what not to do if Mif2Go encounters a problem while converting your document.
