Open Anchors.fm in the Lesson09 folder.

Choose File > Save As, enter the filename Anchors1.fm, and click Save.

Choose View > Borders and View > Text Symbols to turn on the display of borders and text symbols.

Go to page 3 of Anchors1.fm.

Click at the end of the first paragraph on the page (at the end of the line some of these sights).

Press Return to create an empty paragraph.

At the right side of the document window, click the Paragraph Catalog button (¶).

Paragraph Catalog button

In the Paragraph Catalog, click Anchor. The properties of the Anchor paragraph format control the spacing around the graphic.

You could create the anchored frame and then import the graphic into it, but you’ll usually find it faster to import the graphic at the insertion point. FrameMaker 7.0 will create the anchored frame for you.

Choose File > Import > File.

Open the Art folder in the Lesson09 folder and select the Tourmap.tif file.

Select Import by Reference and click Import.

When you import by reference, the graphic file isn’t stored in the document. Instead, the document contains a pointer to the graphic file, keeping the file size down. The graphic in the document will be updated automatically whenever the stored file is changed.

The Import Graphic Scaling dialog box appears. If it isn’t already set to this, select Custom and enter 144 in the Custom dpi text box to specify the size of the graphic. Click Set.

FrameMaker 7.0 supports import and export of many types of graphics file formats, including SVG and movies. For more information about file formats, see Chapter 18, “Importing, Linking, and Exporting,” in the Adobe FrameMaker 7.0 User Guide.

The imported graphic appears in an anchored frame below the empty paragraph. Handles appear around the anchored frame to indicate that the frame is selected. Also, an anchor symbol () appears at the insertion point, although it’s hard to see here at the beginning of the line. The text moves down to accommodate the graphic.

For the graphic to appear in the correct position, you’ll need to change the properties of the anchored frame. First you’ll eliminate the white space between the anchored frame and the graphic by resizing the anchored frame.

Display the Graphics menu to see whether Snap is on or off. If it’s on, as indicated by a check mark or check box next to it, turn Snap off by selecting it.

Drag the top-left handle of the anchored frame until the edges of the anchored frame line up with the edges of the graphic.

Drag the bottom-right handle of the anchored frame until the edges of the anchored frame line up with the edges of the graphic.

Now you’ll change the anchoring position of the frame.

With the anchored frame still selected, choose Special > Anchored Frame.

Choose At Insertion Point from the Anchoring Position pop-up menu.

Change the Distance above Baseline to 0 (zero) and click Edit Frame. The anchor moves to the bottom of the anchored frame.
