5.1.10 Preserving Word-generated cross-reference markers
Content imported from Word via FrameMaker native Word import arrives in FrameMaker cluttered with hundreds of extra cross-reference markers, all starting with _Toc followed by a long number. This is an artifact of the method Word uses to create a table of contents. Your document might contain many of these markers, because Word uses them only once, and makes a new set every time it generates a table of contents. If you leave these markers in your FrameMaker document, they appear in the Mif2Go output as named destinations, such as a # footnote in WinHelp, or <a name="_tocnnnnnn"></a> in HTML.
Do not try to use these markers. By default, Mif2Go ignores them.
However, if the markers have been used in your FrameMaker document, you can instruct Mif2Go to honor them, with the following option:
[HelpOptions] or [HTMLOptions]
; RemoveWordTocMarkers = Yes (default, ignore markers starting _Toc)
Cross references to these markers will then work in Mif2Go output; but you will also have many (perhaps thousands) of extra pointless anchors in HTML or footnotes in WinHelp. They are harmless, but they do increase file size.
In future you can avoid this problem when you import files from Word. Bring them into FrameMaker as plain text, using Copy in Word and Paste Special in FrameMaker. Then re-tag per your FrameMaker template. This method takes longer, but it eliminates numerous issues you would otherwise have forever as the result of the Word import.
